I passed the Cisco QoS test yesterday. One down, 7 to go. Actually the magic number is now 2. That's how many tests my company is waiting on me to pass. It's come down to a race; Can I pass these two tests before Craig passes his MCSE? I'm not worried, the company need to send Craig to a bootcamp.

As for me, I am beat tired. Exhusted mentally, physically and spiritually. PASS class was good last night. I felt the presence and work of the Holy Spirirt to a degree that I have not in a long time. When I got home, I resolved to get to bed early tonight. Too many nights of burning the midnight oil study have caught up to me. However, just I was ready to roll over and drift off to lala land, Seren gets a call from our neighbors. They were having a maritial crisis. So Seren and I went to their house and talked to them, individually, then together for a couple of hours. All I can say is 'Ago Ministro'. At times like that, that becomes like a mantra to me. "I serve". I'm just glad that I don't have to rely on my own strength or my own wisdom to do these things.

Speaking of serving, tonight is the "18-mealer". Boy, I don't like that play on words. But the only alternative I can think of is MEFFGA (Massively Enormous Free Food Give Away). And that has *no* gravitas. Anyway, regardless of what it is called, it should prove to be a good time. At least it has in the past.
