so there were a lot of people outside yesterday, at say, about ten til six in the evening. one must grant, the rainbow(s) were pretty. but it also provided no little amusement at the antics of people who act like they've just emerged from a long hard winter to see birds chirping merrily in srping. it's about time i got out of east texas, the weather softens you too much.when you play racquetball, things happen fast. there's that annoying blue thing that keeps whizzing by. every so often you get a crack at it, and it usaully feels pretty good to hit it as hard as you can. of course, walls designed to not absorb energy from the ball do little by way of absorbing energy from sound waves. your ears get used to the cracking of the ball, the squeak of shoes, and of course, to the thwack of my body hitting the wall after an unsuccessful braking attempt. after an intense 45 minutes of playing last night i was drained of energy, and my ears were half-numb. walking back to my dorm was a surreal experience (not as surreal as the rainbow, but more surreal than your typical president's chapel). walking through the darkness, wiht a ligth drizzle. the high humidity of course absorbed sound, so now all i can hear is my feet padding on the concrete. like i said. surreal. .. or maybe i was just tired. but you'll never catch me saying that daniel had his visions simply because he was fasting too much.
