Track 10: Windows in the Skies - U2
The shackles are undone
The bullets quit the gun
The heat that’s in the sun
Will keep us when there’s none
The rule has been disproved
The stone it has been moved
The grave is now a groove
All debts are removed
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
What it's done to me?
The bullets quit the gun
The heat that’s in the sun
Will keep us when there’s none
The rule has been disproved
The stone it has been moved
The grave is now a groove
All debts are removed
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
What it's done to me?
Christmas has been nice. It's been quiet and slow. Gifts were nice. A dig(ital) cam(era), some box sets, CDs, chocolate, mittens, the usual. I've watched all of "House: Season 2" and I'm almost finished "Scrubs: Season 1". I'd forgotten how funny that show is. I still have six seasons of "Friends" to watch, plus "Dawsons' Creek" and "Party of Five" with Kayla, so I doubt I'll be stuck for something to do for a while.
Today was my last day as a Reitmans employee. I stole a magnetic tag to put in my memories box to mark the end of my first real job. I'm not going to miss it. It was hard on my feet and back, and sales associates really don't get paid enough for the amount of work they do. But I will miss the people I worked with, because they were really, really good people. I've learned a lot from working there, mostly how to bite my tongue and to listen to my superiors, and that I don't always know everything. I've also gotten to know some very strong and dedicated women, and I've gotten a very, very small taste of how hard some people have to work to support their families. I've seen women sacrifice their personal time in order to get more hours so they could give more to their children. Retail isn't really a glamourous job, but these women do it. I've met some really great friends, too, who I hope to stay in contact with for a while.
Tonight was excellent. Kayla and I went to Katharine's house and had a great time with some great people. Taboo, chinese food, cameras, and guitar hero make for one good time. New Years plans are also underway, so hopefully I won't be as anti-social this year as I have been in the past. Three stops are lined up (Glenn's, Steve's and the Temple), so it should be filled with good food, good people, and good times.
This U2 song is amazing. It pretty much sums up the power of God's love for us, and how it changes our lives.
Can't you see what love has done?
What it's doing to me?

Did Josh ever tell you that I am an absolute obsessive compulsive musical fan? I went to 3 at the A&C last term. :D
My itunes lovesss musical sountracksssss. My 10-year-old cousin got an ipod for Christmas, but his computer is dying or something, so his dad got me to transfer my songs onto his ipod while they're waiting. My ipod is ancient, so I had to download a new version and stuff for him. I was really proud of all my work.
After a short listen, "461 sucky songs," says my cousin.
Uncultured.
he.he.
