Because niceness.

Just now, I was tucking in the girls, and we prayed, and I was pulling their blankets up, and I asked them both to forgive me for my bad attitude I had had earlier in the evening. And my bad temper… They had been disrepectful towards Megan, and I got angry with them. So I asked them to forgive me. And then I had a conversation that went sort of like this…
Geneva:Did you disobey God?
Me: Yes, I did.
Geneva: I disobey God sometimes
Me: What happens when you disobey God?
G: I get a spankin’
M: And then what happens?
G: I am forgiven.
M: That’s right. Why are you forgiven?
G: Because God loves me.
M: Why does God love you?
G: Because niceness.
M: What is it that makes God nice to us?
G: Jesus.
M: That’s right! What did Jesus do?
G: He died for our sins and rose from the dead!

There was a bit more to it than that, but I don’t remember every detail. And, also, Ashley was interjecting answers here and there, which were along the same lines as G’s answers, and I remember even less. But, I thought it was a great little discussion.

Gorilla Worm

Yesterday evening I searched for the lyrics to that Gorillaz song Feel Good, Inc. I’ve never heard the song, and heard some people talking about it. So I listened to the sample on iTunes and then looked up the lyrics. I put the name of the band the name of the song and then the word ‘lyrics’. A site came up, and it showed me the lyrics. I browsed them, then closed the window.

And it tried to put a virus on my computer! Punk website! It was some kind of worm… I don’t remember the exact name. I had my antivirus software running, so it stopped it right on the spot. But still.

Who would have thought that a site as simple as a lyric website would put viruses on people’s computers. That’s how so many people get infected, though.

Anyhow… moral of the story: Keep your antivirus software up to date!
