So apparently I was just woken up by an earthquake. I don’t recall feeling anything really, just hearing the sound of stuff like my ceiling fan rattling. Scared the crap out of me.
WEST SALEM, Ill. (AP) — A 5.4 earthquake in Illinois has rocked people awake as far away as Indiana, surprising residents unaccustomed to such a large temblor in the Midwest.
The quake just before 4:37 a.m. was centered 6 miles from West Salem, Ill., and 66 miles from Evansville, Ind.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.

I found this gem in the Seminary book sale. These kids don’t look too happy about prayer.

That’s right, kids—prayer shouldn’t be enjoyable.

Several weeks ago I found a copy of Entertainment Weekly in my mailbox. Naturally, my first thought was that it belonged to one of my neighbors and the mail-person had accidently put it in my box. When my eye scanned down to the address label to see who the correct recipient is, I was surprised to see my name and address.
“Why am I getting a copy of Entertainment Weekly?”
And then I noticed that the address label indicated that the subscription end date was one year in the future.
“How did I get a year-long subscription to Entertainment Weekly?”
Not that I’m complaining—Entertainment Weekly has some decent stuff in it. I’m just curious if I have an anonymous benefactor out there.

Goodbye Samsung N200

Hello Samsung M500

Things I love about my new phone:
- Always having a camera handy.
- Using Bluetooth to swap data with my computer.
- Custom musical ringtones—even if I do have to use a clumsy workaround to load them.
- It’s so small and light!
- It came with stereo headphones with a built-in mic.
