And after a short break we return - Sunday

Thursday, Friday and Saturday were to say the least, a little dull blog wise. I spent a lot of time programming, playing CS:S and WoA. Sunday however was much more interesting. I Went to church and it was much more interesting. Kevin Adams, the old pastor from when I first went there, he spoke a little about how the church was when he was there and about how the Youth didn't have somewhere solid to meet yet grew to up to 50 people. Jon talked about the Sluggard from Proverbs, he tried to get in some digs at students but we all know what he's like and he was happy to admit that he likes to have a lie in. It's really good that Jon can poke fun at himself because you can connect with him and realise that though he's the one at the front teaching, he's not perfect either. After the service I gave Emma her Birthday/Christmas present and apparently she'd told me before that she really liked Toblerones (and I'd gotten her one) so was very happy. I cannot recall her ever saying that but just nodded and smiled. After Church I got home and did some WoA, some programming and then my Mum showed me how to make Parm - ee - yays (okay, I cannot spell it, it's probably French). I took said tasty food to a New Year's eve party at Jon and Becca's house. It was really good. We played Taboo, the object of the game was to tell someone what a word was but you were not allowed to use that word or a set of other words. The best part came when I had to get across Potato. I managed it VERY fast. "It's something round and I'd give it to ladies instead of a rose" Emma yelled out Potato as she knew the story behind it and everybody just looked at her and before we went onto the next round I had to explain the story. After the New Year arrived we young-uns sat down and talked to John (Emma's step father) about stuff, or more accurately he tried and failed to have a go at us for relying on Calculators too much. We mocked him a lot, he mocked me a lot (and sometimes the other young-uns) and we all had a good time. I told him that maybe one day he'd get over his fear of computers and use the internet, apparently he's already done that so maybe he'll stumble onto my blog and leave a less than constructive comment ;) I cycled home and played QWERTY Warriors, if you're looking for a way to improve your typing, this might be it. I enjoy the hardest difficulty, so if you use the computer to type as much as me, it'll be interesting to see how well you do, I've yet to die so I can't tell you my high-score ;) Note that I've accessed the SWF object directly as on my computer the page lags with all the adverts the site has.
