Day two

Well, a fairly average Sunday today. A shortage of food around the house (and eventual decision to seek food elsewhere), a lot of sitting on the computer, and FOCUS (Fellowship Of Christian University Students), the on campus christian group that I am a part of.

Earlier in the day, I went over to a friend's house, and helped him attempt to prank his roomie's computer. He had a simple java program that would wait ten minutes, then flood the screen with a never-ending stream of windows. Problem was, when it ran, it opened a console window, which wouldn't work very well. So, he needed to make a jar file for it. I was a bit of help (I think), by showing that he needed the JDK (actually suggested by Eric). So, actually, I probably didn't help much… But I tried at least! And that's the important thing.

So I went back home, and it stormed! Such a good day for a rainstorm. I always love the rain, and so here it comes for me! I think it's God saying "Good job on your cal exam, have a rainstorm Paul!" And I like that. So, good stuff there.

After Focus, we sometimes go out to different restaurants for some fun and fellowship. Well, at this particular outing to Burger Street (not recommended), Sarah was being hassled and poked by Matt (Gilliland), and in order to protect her, Eric reached across the table, spilling Sarah's drink all over her. Well, she doesn't like pictures (whole 'nuther story), but awhile back she promised that she would let me take one of her. And, her standing there, pants soaked with coke, I thought of the promise that she made. So, for your viewing pleasure, I present to you, Sarah!

In completely different news today, I switched from apache2 to lighttpd. I never got into apache2 much, but I can say this about lighttpd: the config is much smaller, and I did everything I needed to set it up in about five minutes. Also (and this is from Eric), it seems to be much faster. So, if page loads are faster, it's all because of this.

Cast
  • Me: Slightly wet twin of Eric
  • Eric: Computer junkie on call
  • Sarah: Student and friend, jealous of the twins nearness to the pool
  • Matt: Cohort from Focus
  • Pranking Friend (Matt Clark): Mischevious friend in need of CS help

I did not spill the drink! That was all of their doing. All the same, it was funny. Poor Sarah though :(. She just doesn't like Phase 8½.

I really seemed to think that it was your doing, knocking the glass over. Well, whatever, I'm not going to argue over a trifle thing like that.

Yeah, I feel the need to correct that I spilled the drink on myself because I went crazy from being tickled by Matt (G).

And what does phase 8 1/2 have to do with this situation?

You spilled it on yourself because you wanted to swim. We all know the truth, you just need to admit it to yourself now.
