Not Ready for Someday
Last night as Greg and I took our traditional walk to Karry Park in honor of how we became friends, he announced clearly his intentions to marry Melinda. It’s been nearly three years, this isn’t a surprise. He’s mentioned it somewhat before. I shouldn’t have been surprised or shocked in any way. But I was. The internal fireworks started going off so loudly that I literally...

one thing I will never understand is how normal people are unaffected by movies or books I mean when they watch a movie or finish a book they say “well that was a good movie/book” and they move on while I have an existentional crisis and question the whole universe
Things that annoy me:
My friends relationships.
They Say The First Year is the Hardest, But I've...
Had a brief tragic moment looking at the mass quantities of Mother’s Day posts. Made me smile thinking of my wonderful mother. Then I gasped out loud realizing I’m going to have to make it through Father’s Day posts in a little while.

She’d been given an assignment to not go to class and instead find someplace to rest and read for pleasure. An assignment to read for...
Trying to get my life story planned out a bit before I tell it to the floor on Wednesday and I’m doing pretty good, typing away and just spilling all my ideas out in a pretty speedy fashion. And then I get to my first Improvathon. And I write: “Kiiiiinda changed my life. Literally. Completely. And it’s all because” And I just stop dead. I don’t even want to write his...
Heart of Worship
I ended up joining in an impromptu worship night in Martin Square after a slurpee run to 7-11. There I am, standing with my slurpee, singing at the top of my lungs, letting it go and praising God, when I realize… most of the kids around me aren’t really known as the good kids on the block, at least not a large handful. Sure, David was leading it and he’s incredible, but a lot of...
