lately. Go through those stages every once in a while. Nothing spectacular going on, perhaps that's the reason. Who knows?
SU and I watched a really good HBO series via Netflix titled Band of Brothers . It is a 5 DVD set about WW2 and is very, container. The brutality of war is depicted honestly and the relationships the men had truly highlight the saying that you aren't fighting for your family or your country, you're fighting for the guy next to you.
After that was over, Battlestar Galactica season three finally was shipped! It came in Friday, we ordered a pizza and watched all four episodes on the DVD. Sure, it's fantasy entertainment but at the end of a long week, it was surely needed.
Picked up another Jack Reacher novel, this one is about an attempt on the VP's life. I'm not certain what the appeal of this series is but I've come to like it. The dialog is short and crisp, not a lot of imagery, almost staccato. Maybe it's the confidence of the main character. Who knows.
SU and I went riding Saturday, beautiful day for riding. Lomax was having a BBQ cookoff, went out there for a bit, then to Shoreacres, they were having a crawfish boil. I think everyone is ready for warm weather.
Class was very good Sunday, surprised me. I neglected to study most of the week and had to compress it into about 5 hours Sat. night and Sunday morning. We talked about re-commitment, using Jacob's story in Genesis 34-35 as source material. No matter how much I tried, I couldn't get around the fact that I liked the way Dinah's brothers handled the situation. Even though I suppose it was wrong. I suppose but am not certain.
Went on an escort ride for another fallen soldier Friday, Sgt. Gregory Unruh. Saw in the news that 2 more from our area were KIA over the weekend. I hope that the media doesn't do a hatchet job on their families like the Chronicle did on Unruh's father. They got to him in the early stages of grief and took some comments out of context, making him look like an anti-war protester. Sucks. All he was trying to do was grieve his son.
Walked around the plantation today and took a few pictures of flowers. SU laughs at me because I take so many pictures of flowers. She says they are just weeds. Ah but beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I'm the beholder! Someday I'm going to get a true macro lens for the Sony A100 and take better pictures.
