keepin’ it fresh
April 16, 2009
Tomorrow is four-minute Friday.
That means I start with Go and end with Done, and everything in between is written in four minutes. I typically choose a topic based on whatever’s happening at the moment, and then just start typing. I’ve four-minuted about time zones, nicknames, and cereal. Music, hope, Isaiah 53, and ostriches.
Thanks to an inspiring housewarming gift, I’m gonna mix things up this week. You get to decide the topic of tomorrow’s post.
So. What do want me to ramble about for four minutes? Give me as many suggestions as you’ve got.
Hope.

Washington and how beautiful it is here. I like your pictures, by the way. Is that on alki beach? I’m trying to think of where you could find that view of Seattle…
@XCWATERBOY says:
this isn’t very surprising coming from me but how about running? or to really mix it up running sexily (the only way I know how to).
good luck deciding which topic to pick.
The beautiful pictures on your home page.
What was your thought process in selecting them?
BREAD BUTTS.
Making cheesy home movies with your brothers when we were all little!!!
Aw, man… I think I’m probably too late.
You could talk about your plans to visit Iowa. Or the plan to make a plan. Or whatever. I’m just saying, I have a couch.
don’t have any ideas. but i wanted to say HI!!
HI!
Hi friend! I guess I can add to this since you have published your Four Minute Friday yet…what about writing about your Four Minute Fridays and how they (and all of your themed writing) came about. That’s about all the creative energy I have. :-)

@cassgirl says:
That’s exactly where I am going to be in the fall.

does your sister attend a church here? i’ve been going to Island Church with my friend laura…
@cassgirl says:
No unfortunately … My sister doesn’t believe in God.
She’s building a home up there and will be getting married on her front lawn of this majestic home.
I can’t wait to hug on her, it’s been 9 years.
