First of all, the poetry game involves everyone writing random words on pieces of paper and passing them around a circle, such that each person receives a paper with three(ish) words written by the three people previous to them in the circle. Each person has to write a poem (any type, any meter) that includes tthose three words, within a certain time limit. Then, everybody reads their stuff.
Lots of fun.
Second of all, I have officially moved to Atlanta. I'll be living here until I hit the field. HOWEVER, I shall have to do quite a lot of travelling. I was in South Carolina last night to visit a church, and will proabably make a *quick* trip up to Chattanooga early Saturday morning. Hmmm. I will have to get back before my Saturday night shift. Hmmm. But I should go up to get my suitcase full of pasta and canned food... and those boxes of books and t-shirts... and that 20 lb. bag of sugar.
I can't think of any of those other questions right now. I'm going to go unpack books.

Posted by: jeep at January 21, 2005 09:14 AMWHY do you have a 20lb bag of sugar??
Posted by: Krista at January 21, 2005 04:08 PMI'm just not sweet enough on my own.
And thanks Jeep for reminding me of the rice! Are you going to be around? I'm gonna call you. HAHAHAHAHA!
And Jose, Jose, Jose. I'll be there early and thenleaving about lunchtime. I'll be sure to run by your room between those two endpoints. ;)
Posted by: bob at January 21, 2005 04:29 PMI read that you are going to "hit the field." Either you are beginning the life of farming or you are headed to the world of doing social work! I'd love to hear about it. Where are you going? With which organization? What will you be doing there? Just curious, from one worker to another.
Posted by: Heather at January 22, 2005 04:31 AMYour instincts are right, Heather. I'm going to become a worker. (Notice too that I changed your comment to the word worker.) I shall be working with folks that I can't mention on this blog. Anyway, DO pray for me! I'll do the same for you. We'll be in similar lines of work, not far from one another. How long will you be there? Feel free to drop me an email.
