today is monday 25 august 2003.

bad news folks. school starts tomorrow.

adventure of the day: getting glasses adjusted. so last week i get a new set of glasses. one side is loose, so i go back to try to get it adjusted. in the process of turning a screw, the lady scratches the lens. so she tells me to come back in a couple of hours so she can get a new lens made. so i come back, and another lady notices the screw is still lose, but this time she hunts for a new frame (same kind) and replaces the lens. so i almost got a new set of glasses again today.

yesterday no blog. busy--but a normal church day.

if you know the rolands, you need to play with their dog. active little vicious animal. "a typical roland"--mind you, this was mrs. roland telling me this.

sister hasn't exploded yet. mom kinda wishes she would. mom's remark "sister is so grouchy. poor rich (her husband). we grew up with sister, so we knew what she was like--he married her."

nearing the end of the month so i had to use my chick-fil-a coupon.

new class for high school is apologetics--basically a doctrines class with a lot more attitude. hit all the controversial topics concerning life: drinking, smoking, crack, body piercing, tatoos, movies, death sentences . . . you name it, i'll probably get in trouble for teaching in. if you have any hot topics, let me know.

dodgers lost the series to the streaking mets. almost makes me want to follow some other pennant race--the a's/mariner's race is getting tight--too bad the a's lost their pitching (mulder and hudson out).

someone please explain to me what a pierogie is.
