Come Get Your Dog...
The neighborhood where I did most of my growing up is situated off of another road. From a birds eye view “The Hills” (we never called it that) appear to balloon off of Glancy Street - forming a perfect circle in which my friends and I often used for racing each other. Whether it was on bicycles, rollerblades, or even foot our “block” was the staple distance for handling...

Trifles...(cont.)
Note to self:
Never again eat two medium pizzas and fudge cakes, no matter how complimentary they are, alone on a Saturday night. Yes, your efforts to gain weight should be commended - but not if it leaves you standing over a toilet all night watching said efforts go down the drain.
Lesson learned. But in the meantime there are tons of other things that have been going on in my life. Not really -...

Trifles...
I have to stop running soon. I’m losing too much weight. I don’t think I’ve weighed under 150 since high school. My butt is disappearing. LOL. I’ve also dropped two pant sizes and I’m eating possible the worst foods. I don’t understand. For two nights in a row my dinner was a batch of chocolate cookies and still I’m looking more and more like an orange on...

Under the Bus
At rehearsal tonight our “fearless leader” admitted to throwing some of us under the bus when it came to leading songs. I understand why he does. His wife, the overall leader, takes on a lot. Not that she can’t handle it. She does - very well in fact. But she shouldn’t have to. Thinking back on what he said, I couldn’t help but wince at the circumstances given the...

Blasians and Demons
There are only two images that come to mind when I think about the word “racism.” The first is a tree. Back home a large oak sits far off in the middle of a fallow cotton field. In the winter its especially nice because when the cotton grows the ground is layered in white and a dark purple. It’s beautiful. The tree, however, sticks out no matter what the season. Dead for...

The Third Song
This morning I was greeted with a random, immediate, and more-than-needed reintroduction to my bible. Something told me to read, specifically, Isaiah 50: 4-9 (click here to read). Normally, my first inclination upon resisting the advances of my pillow is to rekindle that brief separation from it. But recognizing that this was a unique and very independent thought in itself, I chose not to ignore...

Any wallpaper requests?
Just curious if there were specific wallpapers any of you had that you would like to see me post. I already realize I haven’t found an epic Spiderman wallpaper yet. For that I’m sorry, I’m working on it. LOL. But seriously let me know or is the stuff I’m doing great already?
