Different subject this morning-

I'm awake, on my second cup of coffee, and am thinking about going upstairs and getting properly dressed. 

Trying to meditate on what I read in Luke this morning, and figure out how to apply it somehow in my day.  If only my brain would retain biblical knowledge the way that it retains everything else! 
It's like I'm pouring all of my reading and experiences into my brain, and if it's connected to clothing, or tools, or electronics, it's automatically directed to the "Retain Forever" section, but if it's important, like did I take my medication today or facts about prophecy, it heads straight into the "Outgoing" bin. 
Irritating.

So I'm staring at my desk, thinking about trying to clear it off and get down to the actual wood, and I'm kind of impressed with what the stacks consist of today.  :)
From left to right, here it is, and keep in mind that the desk is only 2.5' x 2.5:
