:-)

I am happy. Truly happy. Like from the inside out and it feels great. Ok so maybe if its joy because its not necessarily based on my surroundings. I can't even explain it. So I won't try. Nope. Not at all. :-)
In other news, I love using wireless at fast food places. There's something so surreal about it. DQ is my fav place to get the internet for my dinosaur of a computer. There's this one booth that I love to sit in and I can see everyone. Those coming in. Those eating with their families. I guess sometimes I can be a bit of a people watcher. But what's nice when I'm using my compy at DQ I can be staring just over the screen and no one knows that I'm really looking at them spill ketchup all over their white pants. LOL.

Wasn't impressed

So I went and saw Prince Caspian with my family last night. Now I'm not going to give away anything because I hate when people do that to me. It was good for just being a movie... but for being a movie based on CS Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia... yeah not so much of a good movie. I usually like the book better than the movie in most cases like this. I imagined Narnia definitely in the book. Also there's a lot of things I don't remember from the book in the movie. (wait that could be because they're not in the book).
I'm also not impressed with my family's new keyboard that I am using right now. Good thing I'm proof reading all of this because I'm making so many typos trying to figure out this thing. It has a wave in the middle of the keys. Its weird. And they don't type the same way. I'm not a fan yet. So maybe I'll have to write my posts on my laptop and then use my thumb drive to get them to this computer. I don't know.
I'm excited about one thing though... with Memorial Day being this Monday. That means I get 2 days off. Sweet!!! I only have to work 4 days this week!!! What will I do with my extra day? I don't know. A little nap nap and a long walk and a good book sound like the perfect day to me. Yippie skippie!!!

Read it

Ok. Read The Shack by William Young. Just do it. You won't regret it. Well at least I don't think you will.

Reasons why the band I'm in needs a gig

Yes that's right. I want a gig.
Reason 1: I need some more motivation.
2: I need something to do on Friday nights.
3: I really want some audience member(male of course and over the age of 20) to go... OMG who is that ridicuously cute bass player and is she single...
4: I want people to think we're legit... like for real.
And the last and most important reason... I want to feel like the rock star that I am.

Laugh. I know you want to. I'm feeling a career in stand up.

Sometimes thinking makes my head itch...

I've been hung up on something the speaker said at Agape. I don't remember his name, but he's almost always there each year. He started off his Saturday night talk with telling the audience about the miscarriage that his wife and him had this last week. Now I'm not quite sure why he told us that... First of all, he could have gotten his point across with out being so personal(I'm not sure that's the word I'm looking for... maybe I'm more looking for a phrase... how about "asking for pity"... or "trying to make us feel sorry for him"... I know he wasn't... but he was trying to get an emotional response out of us). Second, how does his wife feel about him telling us this?
Ok back to my thinking on this talk. He began to relate himself to how God feels about the church and His children. He said, "When God does an ultrasound of the church, does He find a heartbeat?" Now I know he was getting at how there are a lot of Christians who are not living life to the fullest or living following God.
I guess what I'm getting at is that I'm going to make sure that when God does His "ultrasound" that He's going to find a heartbeat wherever I'm at. I am going to beat for God. (And on a silly note, I'll be beating up whoever gets in my way also... beat... beating... ok nevermind).
Yeah my head keeps itching... and its not dandruff. :-)

A DCB to make for a fun night

If you have never seen the David Crowder Band in concert, well... you should. Oh my. It was the most crazy, wonderful, amazing experience. First of all, their music is just happy and good to begin with. I mean you can't go wrong with upbeat rockin' out music. Second, David Crowder played a key-tar. You know.... a keyboard that's on a strap, but sorta has a guitar neck and box-ee shape. It was bright green. So cool. They also played the Super Mario Bros theme song. That was cool. THEN... David Crowder grabs a Guitar Hero guitar and plays it. The drummer had upgraded it and it could actually make its own sounds. There was also the power up noise on there. Oh it was so cool. He kept referring to the band that played before them(which was Hawk Nelson) as Mr. Nelson. It was hilarious.
They're good in concert.

Now it was a concert, but the DCB writes a lot of the songs that are used in Contemporary Worship settings so there was a lot of worshiping God going on. That's cool, you know. I don't have a problem with going to a concert and worshiping God. I have a problem with the opposite... when I go to a worship service and it feels like a concert. And the focus is on the band, not God.

Still one more day of Agape left. Being exhausted and sore comes with the territory. At least I wasn't camping....
