Love it!!! As someone who is actually considering becoming a parent through adoption, your posts have been extremely helpful to my husband and me as far as "what not to do" if this is something we do pursue....

LOL!! It's kind of like, "Why can't everyone in the world be more like me?" Lord help us all if that happens!! Because then we'd have an entire world of people being impatient with everyone else for having the exact same weaknesses...and no one strong in those same areas to pick up the slack :).

I live in Wisconsin, right next to Lake Michigan. Yes, it snows. In fact, I'm surprised it hasn't snowed YET!!!

I'm a Gleek. My husband and I DVR it each Tuesday night, and watching it together is a highlight of our week. I kind of made a rhyme!!! I was nervous about the "Grilled Cheesus" episode, but I thought the topic of religion was tastefully done.

To be fair, DC Talk did a cover of it in the mid-90s. Larry Norman's version was creepier, though!

Since that's basically how John ended his gospel, I would say you're right on the money!

Changed my life:
Emotionally [and somewhat theologically!] - "Tired of Trying to Measure Up" by Jeff Vanvonderen

Physically: The Eat Clean Diet by Tosca Reno [not even kidding!!!]

Authors whose books I read and who I now want to have lunch with because they're that stinkin' awesome:
*Anne Lamott
*Shane Claiborne
*Karen Kingsbury [yeah, she doesn't quite fit in with the other two, but I love me some fluffy Christian fiction sometimes, and she delivers!!]
*Madeline L'Engle [when I get to heaven, obviously!]

Trendy Christian books I don't/didn't really get:
*The Prayer of Jabez [I tried...really, I did!]
*Wild at Heart [absolutely NOTHING biblical as far as what a man is supposed to be!] and Captivating [If I have to hear myself compared to one more stupid Jane Austen movie that I will never see, I will puke!]
*The Purpose-Driven Life [I started to read it, but just lost interest after the first chapter - finally just donated my copy to the Goodwill!]

I'm reading that one right now, and I think my husband is getting tired of me reading him passages from it :o). My world is currently in the process of being rocked.
