It's been a really fun first week after college. It started off with a bang; on the way home from Lee on Tuesday, the parents took a surprise detour to Cumberland Falls. It had rained for two days just before, so the river was swollen to a level not normally seen, resulting in a huge amount of water going over the falls. Seriously, it's not called "the Niagara of the South" for nothing! And if you go at the right time, when it's night and the weather's right, you can even see the only moonbow in the Western Hemisphere!
Went to youth group on Wednesday night. Wasn't bad; Pastor Rock talked about prayer. My only gripe was that attendance was rather sparse that night. Still, it was good to hear the Word and see some of my old friends again. Over the next few days I mowed the lawn and watched some movies with Dad, the most prominent of which were LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Bourne Identity, and Saving Private Ryan. Good stuff.
On the first, Mom turned 49. That, plus Mother's Day this past Sunday, resulted in good times for her.
I've been making up for lost time on my GameCube. I played a lot of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 over the past few days, and today I broke out Metroid Prime for the first time in a couple of years. Such an amazing game; I encourage you to play it. Nintendo and Retro Studios pushed the GameCube close to its graphical limit with the beautiful environments in here. I'm going to see how far I can get without using a guide. I doubt I'll get 100% completion, but it should be interesting.
I resume work tomorrow. It'll be good to see my old coworkers again. Later this week I'll probably go to the coffeehouse with a friend of mine. Haven't been there in a while...
I'll post something more orderly and serious later. Tired... need to go to bed...
It's been a good week. :-)
