Random October

Here are some random thoughts from today.
[warning: the following will most likely be eclectic, spastic and at times, shallow.]

*It's October. I've been blogging for over a year.
*Kinda crazy how time flies, eh?

*The Steelers were superb yesterday.
*They can't seem to decide whether to be great or terrible this year, however.
*Listening on the radio, while it is it's own unique experience, is not all it's cracked up to be.

*Fall is absolutely gorgeous. I just can't get over it. Every year it comes around, I'm still enthralled by it.
*Route 80 right now...simply stunning.  I'd drive it just to see the leaves, even if I didn't have a destination.
*well...that, and if gas were free…

*Several of my first blog posts were about my hands.  Funny how much has changed since then, and how much hasn't.
*Healing has continued, and while the pain is not gone, it has definitely improved.
*My outlook and attitude have definitely changed.

*Senior Year has been fabulous in so many ways. I can't decide however, whether I want it to hurry up and be over, or slow down and take it's time.
*I'm going for the middle ground and trying to just enjoy as much of it as I can.

*Turns out I like pumpkin pie.
*I know. Go ahead and gasp. 21 years and I had only had pumpkin pie maybe once before in my lifetime.
*But hey. Better late than never.

*Required reading of Jonathan Edwards for my English class? Yes please. 
         *This class just keeps getting better and better.
         *It's lovely to be studying theology in each of my classes.

*You know how sometimes the same idea/thought/lesson will keep coming up again and again and again?
*Yeah. That's happening. And it's revolving around the word faith.
*I'm not entirely sure what I'm learning yet, but I know I am.

*Contentment:
*1. quietly satisfied and happy
*2. satisfied with what one is or has; not wanting more or anything else
*3. peace of mind; mental and emotional satisfaction
*synonyms: see happy 
                    *This is me.
