Late Nights Means Missing Morning

Well as you can see it was a good weekend. My grandfather came to visit us from Galveston Texas and that was nice. The highlight of the weekend was definitely the Copeland concert. This picture was an attempt to hear a song. It didn't happen, but that's ok. It was a wonderful weekend, Carolina's in the Final Four, and so I avoided being depressed over a loss. In completely unrelated news, Lauren and I that I took is on the cover of the latest Christian dating book. I'll post a picture of the cover soon enough. I find this hillariously funny for some reason. Went bowling, bowled a 126 two games in a row, so at least I'm consistent. Had some good conversations, did some work on my car. Had a late night dinner at Carolina Dinner. All in all it was a wonderful four days. Hey people you're loved never forget it. I hope to see you soon.

PS- our sign got signed.

He says, "You're Beautiful", but You Never Listen

The longer you run, the weaker you'll be when they catch you.

Watch out Easter Bunny, I'm going to squeeze every drop of fun out of you.

The Dimness of it All

What makes me the way I am? Man I wish I knew. There is so much I'd change if I could. If I knew how. On the surface life is wonderful, but beneath it I'm eternally in a state of confusion. I'm stuck in a maze with no way of finding the cheese. Why can't life be as wonderful as it is? Oh well. I don't have anything to complain about. 2 Corinthians 7 , that's me right now. Anyway, I'll leave you with a bit of overheard cell phone conversation.

"so they said they'd take my appendix out for free, kind of like two for one"

Bluebirds

Well this week has seen a lot of soul searching. My thoughts have been so muddled and crazy that I'm still not entirely sure what I was thinking. It was just one of those times in life when doubts and fears start rushing in. Well tonight, prayers that were months old were answered. God is so good. He gave me just what I needed. I'm happier than I've been in awhile.

I got a job today. I'm a cashier at McCalisters, not to exciting, but hey it's money.

So yes, God is trustworthy, that's the truth. I love you all.

Top of the World?

Spring Break is over. Summer needs to come. I can't take this much longer. Who are you, you need to find out before you ask me to listen. Good things come to those who wait. Or maybe you missed something? Don't hold your breath, there are a million more like you. But you're special.

Understand the Dream is Over

I'm on Spring Break. I wrecked my car. Much love to you.
