Antibiotics are good things...

wow, what a difference a day makes!

The doc had said that the first day or so of them I would feel worse instead of better, and boy, was he right!   But I took another one last night anyway, despite my misgivings, and today was a much better day.  Even so, I'm choosing to stay in my hotel tonight, and not drive to Valpo until tomorrow morning to visit my friends. That keeps me from over-extending myself when I'm still not 100%.

So I picked up a weekend rental car today (Jeep Liberty for hte price of a Grand Prix), and tonight will have Mexican food for dinner at a great Mexican restaurant just up the street.  Then I'll do some laundry, work on my homework for school, and try to make an early night of it. Tomrrow morning I'll make the 90 minute (or so) drive to Valpo, and have breakfast with 2 of my best friends in the world.

Life is good.

My Commitment


  • Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. Hab. 3:17-18

Authors I enjoy

  • Angela Elwell Hunt
    Everything Angie writes is well-written. Not always easy to read, but definitely *worth* reading.
  • Anne McCaffrey
    One of the reigning queens of Science Fiction.
  • C.S. Lewis
  • Celia Hayes
    Celia Hayes is not only a favorite author but a personal friend. If you like historical fiction, especially thoroughly researched, well-written historical fiction about Texas, you need to read her books.
  • Dick Francis
  • Earlene Fowler
    If Benni Harper were a real person, I'd want to be her friend.
  • Elizabeth Moon
    Sci-Fi/Fantasy. LOVE her Deed of Paksenarrion, and her entire Heris Serrano/Esmay Suiva series.
  • J.R.R. Tolkien
  • Kristen Britain
    Sci-Fi/Fantasy
  • Louis L'Amour
    He wrote more than just westerns, people....
  • Madeleine L'Engle
    My all-time fave. Both her fiction and non-fiction are very readable, and always thought-provoking.
  • S.M. Stirling
    Time-travel/Alternate Histories.
  • Terri Blackstock
    Some of the best legal thrillers (for lack of a better term) I've read. Believable characters that it's easy to care about, as well.
  • Terry Pratchett
    Hilarious!

  • This is True
    Randy Cassingham's e-newsletter proving that "truth is stranger than fiction, because fiction has to make sense." From the website: This is True is a weekly syndicated newspaper column by Colorado humorist Randy Cassingham.

Each story ends with commentary by Randy -- a tagline which is humorous, ironic or opinionated.
