Those Martins

I woke up and around 6:30am, grabbed my Bible, and finished reading through the book of Ezekiel. I was enjoying the book right up until the point where it delved into the minutia of how to construct a new temple. I think I see hints of what the future will be when Jesus is present in the temple, but I have a hard time really focusing on those passages.

I also spent a chunk of time using Bookpedia to organize our library. I went through and identified which books were mine, which were Christine’s, which we both claimed, and which are Esther’s. Eventually, I’ll update my LibraryThing profile with my collection and probably my iRead profile on Facebook as well. At the moment, my profiles have a mix of my books and Christine’s books. They’re also out of date.

Arrived at work around 9:45a and had my usually eventful morning. I was in class again this afternoon. I didn’t leave work until 6pm. On the way home from work, I listened to a discussion about Peak Oil and whether or not we’ll ever run out of oil. This really caught my attention:

Light sweet crude (less than 1% sulfur), running out, but plenty of sour crude: easier to make gasoline out of light sweet crude, but easy enough to make diesel fuel and other things out of sour crude. “We have never and will never run out of anything.” As prices go up, people find more ways to find more of it; and as prices go up people find more ways to do without it. Alternative fuels will become more economical, we will switch to them, and never run out of oil.

We had dinner as soon as I get home (chicken enchiladas! mmmmm), then left for Life Group. Tonight we discussed whether or not “Sex is Dirty”. (It’s not.)

Home by 9pm. Changed Esther and put her straight to bed. She’d tired herself out during the day, so she fell asleep with no arguments. I read through my news feeds while Christine arranged a substitute babysitter for tomorrow (Liz and Joshua are sick, so they can’t watch her like normal). Now we’re watching a Cosby Show episode, then off to bed.
