What I Did Yesterday

This is not Myspace. I just wanted to get that cleared up right away, as I’m going to do something I seldom do: ramble about my exceedingly mundane life.

I got up yesterday, came to my office, and posted to the blog at 7:26 AM, according to the time on the post. Then, cup of coffee at hand, I did my Bible reading. I’m reading Romans this month. It takes a little less than an hour every day to read it through.

Then I went to the dentist. I don’t really mind going to the dentist. Pain doesn’t bother me much; if I can survive the initial shot of Novocain, I’m alright. The real pain comes through speakers in the ceiling. Forty-five minutes of Lionel Ritchie is a lot to endure. “Hello — is it me you’re looking for?” No, Lionel, it’s not; now shut up. I hate morning appointments. They really mess up my day; it’s hard to get going on anything in the afternoon if I don’t get a good start in the morning.

I decided to spend the afternoon fiddling around with some small projects, some important, most not. I needed to wash Lionel out of my ears, so I started up Musicmatch Jukebox. I’ve become a big fan of audio Bibles, and have several translations, so I put up a playlist of — what else? — Romans. It’s the book of Romans in six different translations, interspersed with music. It’s twelve hours long, so, because of the late start, I didn’t get through it all yesterday. In case you care, and I haven’t bored you to death already, it goes like this:

Romans, 1599 Geneva
Celtic Hymns
Romans, KJV
Christopher Parkening, Simple Gifts
Romans, NKJV
Christopher Parkening, Grace Like a River
Romans, ASV
Paul S. Jones & the Westminster Brass, Praise God in His Sanctuary
Romans, NASB
Paul S. Jones, Impromptu: Meditative Hymn Improvisations
Romans, ESV
Handel, Messiah

My wife made some really good beer-battered fish (now that I think of it, I didn’t even ask what kind of fish) for supper. Later, before going to bed, we watched an episode of The Twilight Zone.

Now, wasn’t that just fascinating?
