Blogging in B Minor

First off, on Christmas Eve as Rachael and I were getting everything done, I decided to open a gift that my parents had sent to me.  My mom had enclosed a note that said that when she saw it she knew I had to have it and it was perfect.  It was a beautifully framed, very rustic looking painting with Hebrews 11:1 enscribed in the background.  The colors on the canvas are browns and other earthtones as is the enscription so it’s like it’s floating there in the background.  Thanks Mom and Dad!  Very nice.  So anyway, a few minutes later, and I had never thought about this (inspite of CD having this enscription on it which was started in Jan 2007 and that this verse was etched on my leg in June 2007 before my first craniotomy) but I thought, hmmm, I wonder if there are any combination of characters that would work for a license plate but not be too “in your face”?  I found one that wasn’t taken:

So I grabbed it.  I like the plates that make you think a little bit anyway.  And, a plate like this will force people to look up the verse if they don’t know it.  Anyway, I thought this was a good find.  Some people won’t even put it together I suppose.  What’s also good about using the “1WN” at the end instead of 111 for chapter 11 verse 1 is in the later you don’t know if it’s chapter 1 verse 11 or chapter 11 verse 1.  With 1WN it’s clear.

Well, I have to call my folks.  I haven’t talked to anyone.  I was in bed – didn’t even go to Christmas dinner last night – until 8pm.  Up for a bowl of soup then slept until 8 this morning.  I’ve slept for most of today.  Oh well – what can I do about it?  It’s getting better.

I better get off of this – time to sleep some more.  I’m pretty tired still.  I feel cooped up and would love to get out but don’t feel up to it.  There aren’t even any bowl games on – not even the Toilet Bowl brought to you by Dow Chemical.  Sorry – my humor’s not there.
