An amusing thought came to me this morning… Thank God for
Tetris!
When I was in grad school at the University of Texas (Hook
Em Horns!), my mom got me a Tetris watch… yep, you read that right… a Tetris watch. Of course now it’s on my phone.
She also got one for Auntie Linda (Linda Creamer Kidd – she
home a few years ago), who adopted me as part of the ‘Adopt a Student’ program at
University Baptist Church. Because the
church’s choir loft was above and behind the baptismal and stage, most people
couldn’t tell that Auntie Linda and I had an ongoing Tetris tournament in the
choir loft during services. Yes, Tom
Westbrook, I know you knew… and you called us on it… but it didn’t stop
us. I was going on the theory that if I could
read a text book and watch TV at the same time, and comprehend both, I could
play Tetris and listen to a sermon at the same time. At least we turned the volume off. LOL!
The point of that story is to show that all the time playing
Tetris came in handy when trying to load Christmas gifts, birthday gifts (for
Sharon Ratzloff Terrel & Kerry Sandwell), luggage, and other things to
take with me into my car. It’s really full, but I can still see out the back
window, and it all fits.
I’m thankful that my neighbors watch my house when I’m gone
and that I can get everything in my car.
Again, thank God for Tetris!
