the cosby show

so i'm at my "other" home, ktb's apt. just using the internet, applying for random jobs online, and enjoying cable. conveniently the worlds best family sitcom is on. good ole bill. as i watch rudy learn to earn money, vanessa learn to get along with her siblings, and theo learn about girls, i notice there is a lot of learning going on. mr. and mrs. huckstable sure do a lot of teaching in the few down moments of their home life. it makes me wonder, am i paying attention to all the teaching going on around me? i would like to think yes, but i'm sure it's one of those infinite possibilities. we could always be learning more right? so my challenge for myself today is to open my eyes just a little bit wider. maybe i will be suprised at all that my little brain can take in through one day. here's to hoping

i went bowling last night, and we all know how competitive my husband is in any arena. i was so proud to be escorted out with the winner! beeson had a "get to know you" for new students, their wives, girlfreinds, whoever. it was tons of fun and i really enjoyed getting to know all these new people that jared always talks about. since the prize for the highest score was a cracker barrel gift certificate, the night ended with free dessert there with two new friends. i hope there's lots more of these encounters...

speaking of encounter. i heard a cool thing. ktb told me how some random guy from argo, alabama (she met him last night with a group of friends) was talking about how his pastor read something off the internet to the whole congregation about a group of 1000+ college students meeting weekly in auburn, who gave shoes and lots of money to hurricane relief, and then the whole congregation stood and applauded. when ktb mentioned she was a part of that small group they thought she was a movie star (ok, not really, but it was cool.) just enjoying the ripples of grace campus.
