Last night Jane and I went into a furniture store. Have you been to a furniture store lately? I felt like a little kid. Everything is so HUGE! We were looking at bedroom sets (because we got a new bed for Xmas, you know) and we can’t even buy a “set” because it won’t fit into our tiny bedroom. I realize our house isn’t the biggest, but… geesh.
I was depressed this morning. Probably a combination of that, and Ohio State getting killed last night. Not that I like Ohio State, but they’re a Big Ten team, and I'm from the midwest. I don’t know, I don’t think I even like college football anymore. It’s a joke with all the bowls, and waiting so long from the end of the season and a bunch of other stuff that doesn't really matter...
Ahhhh, I gotta get ready for our Annual Congregational Meeting tonight. I would rather like to go see IPFW play Western Illinois at the Coliseum. Not that I’m really into either team, but my parents and sister went to WIU (my sister was a cheerleader there), and I’ve been thinking maybe I should go to some IPFW games and see what they’re like. Whatever. Not gonna happen. I’ll just go home to my small bedroom, minus the large furniture… Don’t you feel sorry for me? Well, don’t worry… I’ll get over it. And at least I won’t need A LADDER to get over it, because I don’t have any HUGE furniture (other than the bed).
Life is funny, is it not? Who’d a thought about making stuff so big…

Never have I seen a better context for quoting this song:
"My parties all have big names
And I greet them with the widest smile
Tell them how my life is one big adventure
And always they're amazed
When I show them 'round my house, to my bed
I had it made like a mountain range
With a snow-white pillow for my big fat head
And my heaven will be a big heaven
And I will walk through the front door"
-"Big Time" Peter Gabriel
