antiquus postremo

'antiquus postremo' is latin for "ancient future". ancient-future is a term used by the so-called "postmodern church" or emerging church to envision what the future of the church might look like if we returned to modeling the early church as described in the book of acts. anyway, ancient future for this blog just means that I'm writing about what's happening right now in my life, kind of like saying "yesterday's tomorrow".

I have no games this week. Summer ball starts after the state high school playoffs, hopefully by the first week of June at least. I drove to Harrisburg on Monday with another umpire, only to find out that there was no game. At least I get paid for driving out there. Kind of an inauspicious way to end my first high school season.

I biked to Springfield yesterday and had lunch with Vjera. It was interesting to me to see the wide variety of people that I rode by on the bike path: Homeless people still all bundled up as if it were 40 degrees; random people strumming guitars; business people taking walks during their lunch hour and chatting avidly; and every once in a long while, a hardcore biker in spandex breezing past me, not an easy feat considering that I don't exactly meander myself.

Speaking of which, I need to go to Springfield again for the umpire meeting tonight, so I'll have another opportunity to do ride-by people-watching.
