Today is one of those days which are like an announcement trailer for summer. The sun has been properly out, but it's still starting to set at about three o'clock. Nevertheless, today was a warm today, and we've not really had many of those until now.
It's been a pleasant, but uneventful day. Let me tell you about some moderately interesting things that have happened during its first half.
Friday Hatman gets Political
I'm a big fan of Friday Hatman, this is probably his most politicised video yet. I sometimes wonder about women who wear head coverings. Can they wear hats as well? Probably, I guess they don't think it would be very fashionable to have both at once.
I go for a Barefoot Run
I use the term 'run' liberally here. It is hard to run barefoot. I sort of lightly jogged to the park, sat in a tree and then walked around a bit. Barefoot running seems like the kind of thing that takes a while to get used to, particularly on some of Sheffield's more poorly maintained pavements. However, after today's experiences I can heartily recommend walking barefoot in the forest. You can get your feet muddy, wash the mud off in a clear, cold stream and then dry off your soles on a crinkly carpet of fallen oak leaves. I can see this becoming a regular activity as summer rolls fully in.
Well, that business was all the way back on Friday, and now it's Wednesday. Sunday was even sunnier than before, and today is looking good also. It is all very exciting.
Speaking of exciting, this week is the Christian Union's events week, which is basically the pinnacle of the Christian calendar, shortly followed by Easter and Christmas.
It's mostly over now, so who cares?
Joke, joke. I care, but I need to start posting these posts in between writing them. I realised this today whilst watching Friday Hatman's latest video, meaning that a full week had passed since I last edited this thing.
I'm on a Megabus coach. They have free wifi, so they are basically better and cheaper than National Express. I'm going home to London for an exciting house-warming party and much other merriment.
Enough about now, what about before?
Events week was about as kicking as everyone expected, Lindsay Brown and Michael Ots did their thing real nice, eliminating misconceptions and apologising all over the show. Turns out the new testament is a pretty reliable historical resource.
The weather was, likewise, pretty kicking. Yesterday I ate ice cream, sipped cider, walked through the botanical gardens, rescued a frisbee and sheepishly haunted the outskirts of a barbeque populated mostly by friends of a friend.
This blog post has mostly gone to pot. There was some professional-ish graphology and almost coherent formatting going on at the beginning, but now it's just a scattering of random memories from throughout the last fortnight. Probably best if we draw things to a close here.
I think I'll spend the rest of this journey improving my cipher, because the one I've got currently is pretty rubbish. My friend Joy used to write everything in a cipher, but hers was sort of better because she kept it all in her head.
