Wow. It seems Wikipedia users have officially transitioned from using "BC" and "AD." It's now always BCE (Before the Common Era) and CE (Common Era).
I don't care if they take down the 10 Commandments and ban prayer from schools and stuff like that. I don't care if they take "In God We Trust" off the money (what do God and money have to do with each other?). But this does make me a little sad. lol Seriously though. Actually it makes me feel old more than anything. Education has made some big changes just since I was in the system a few years ago!
But I do understand why they changed it. I mean, it's kinda strange to profess faith in the Messiah just by referencing a particular year in history.
Speaking of calendars, apparently our western, solar Gregorian calendar is not very great. The whole leap year thing should tell us that. According to my Dad, the Mayan Calendar is where it's at. He thinks if we used that, not only would the calendar be much more simple, but we'd have a much better rhythm to our lives. Faaaascinating. :)

Wikipediaholic
Signs that you may be addicted to wikipedia and/or procrastination... You go to a coffeeshop to work, order a pesto and prosciutto panini, and the first thing you do is Wikipedia "prosiutto". Haha.
And then you blog about it!
How much worse can it get. Muaaaaaahaha.
I'm in a pretty good mood today. The Hurricanes won the cup. Haha no that's not actually why I'm in a good mood. Things are just good overall. It's summer. I have work to do. I have good friends. I'm drinking an iced coffee. The guy who brought me my sandwich was very nice and Dadlike. I may be going home for a couple weeks in August (ooh! i need to research prices). I ordered some jeans online this morning. I'm irresponsible with money. But that's okay. (Yes I'm still on the list of reasons why I'm in a good mood.) Life is short. Grace is long. Now I'm just making up stuff.
