Thank you God for another great day

I can definitely say, without a doubt, today was the best day in all of 2005 thus far. [Although the night I saw God in a vision while closing my eyes at an FCA-presided worship service comes really close.] I hadn't gone to Great America in about 2 years, and even when I went then, I certainly didn't stay practically the whole time the park was open. Chris and I were going to go about 10 days ago, when they were open 12 hours (10 AM to 10 PM), but today was just as good, as the last 2 rides that we went on occurred after sunset. We spent our time mostly on or waiting for roller coasters (no need for that carousel stuff), and we both started and finished our day riding the best roller coaster in the park.

Since I cannot exactly express my joy in words (although I could talk more in detail about what I did), I'll leave with a snapshot: a picture of my wide-open mouth and eyes when we went on the second-to-last Raging Bull ride of the night. That expression was so shocking, something that I never thought I could pull off. I decided to buy the photo, despite the $20 price tag. Once I scan it, I might share it later. [Edit: See below.]




Heck with the best day in 2005. I think it's the best day I've had since I pulled an all-nighter at a church lock-in, crashed during the following day, and went to a Halloween party dressed in a White Sox uniform a couple years ago.
