Note: I no longer recommend listening to Bill Johnson, as I have strong disagreements with his theology, but I’m leaving this up for historical purposes. (2024-11-03)
“I can’t afford to live in reaction to darkness. If I do, darkness has had a role in setting the agenda for my life. The devil is not worthy of such influence, even in the negative. Jesus lived in response to the Father. I must learn to do the same.” Bill Johnson

I spent most of this afternoon and evening preparing for a presentation I’m giving tomorrow. I should have spent more time over the course of the previous week preparing for this, but… I didn’t. So now I’m finally nearing the end, and it’s time for bed.
One of these days I’ll learn to start things ahead of time!

One of the podcasts I listen to daily brought up a recent news article about several Hong Kong based VPNs that were found to expose private user data, even though they claimed that they didn’t.
Frankly, stories like this don’t surprise me anymore. As the saying goes, if you aren’t paying for the product, then you are the product (in most cases). “Free” is often too good to be true. Choose wisely!

Yesterday, I got a delivery of bison snacks, including some Bison Biltong, with Southwest Verde flavoring. And let me tell you, it is delicious!
For those that don’t know, biltong is a form of dried, cured meat that originated in Southern African countries. Think of it as a jerky-type food.

Continue readingFor the first time in over four months, I went out with a few friends to eat at a local restaurant. I had a good time, although it was a tad weird. I’m still not sure how I feel about social events, given everything from the past few months. I’m cautiously open to them, though I sometimes feel more of an urge to wear a mask than others my age, I think.
Anyhow. Today was a long day, and now it’s time for bed.

One of these days, Lord willing, I will master self-control. However, today is apparently not that day. Without thinking, I overate by an order of magnitude more than I wanted to. A few days ago, I checked my phone after waking up, and promptly read the news for 45 minutes instead of doing my normal routine.
Why is it so easy to slip up? I don’t have a good answer for that. I’m still trying to understand it myself.
