movies

i'm on a kick right now...

Once, Waitress, Across the Universe, The Namesake, The Fountain

i recommend them all but remember i'm pretty out there in my taste so you may like them... you may not... but each one is worth a look

next in my que... Martian Boy and We Own the Night

i'll get back to you...

Thirst Quenchers

you know i'm a big believer in signs... i like having some kind of guidance that i'm on the right path...

so yesterday we went to church.

Jordan has been wanting to go for some time now... she went with my dear friend Lisa, however Lisa is Catholic ~ i was not raised Catholic and that's all i'm going to say about that 'cause see one of the biggest reasons i don't go every Sunday is because while i have a very good relationship with Our Father... i have not always left houses built in his honor feeling his presence there ~ and again... enough said about that

yesterday was not one of those situations... and when we pulled in and Jordan said 'You can go to church in jeans?' as we watched some of the others there walking in i knew i had chosen the right place for us ~ my response to her 'You absolutely should be able to ~ God doesn't care what you wear he's looking into your heart.'

the sermon yesterday was based on Exodus 17 ~ where Moses got water from the rock... and the Pastor talked about being alone in the desert and feeling thirsty ~ metaphorically of course referring to that feeling i've mentioned here all too much lately about whether God is paying attention or not... so yeah it could not have been a more perfect day for us to go

Jordan loved it... it was the right mixture of worship... song... devotions... just a beautiful service with the right focus in every aspect of the day... so we will be going back...

‘The truth hurts’

right… that’s what they say ~ and it can… so my advice to you today my dearest friends

be VERY careful who you share your truths with… be certain they are worthy and will carry it safely… that they will not turn your truths on you to hurt you… because that hurt… well it’s just numbing

so go to wherever you go to hear music and listen to this… every once in awhile I’ll hear a song and TRULY wonder… was this written about me…


- James Blunt Lyrics

i have an email...

that says 'Your Bob Dylan ticket is attached'

OH. MY. HECK.

better than 100 Christmas mornings for me in my world!!!

i'm just broken...

and havin' a hard time matchin' the pieces back up to glue them all together again... and when i start to ~ i get shaken... so i think i'm just sittin' in the mess for a minute and prayin'


it's all i got... i just hope that i find a fire to warm this sadness soon 'cause i don't want this to be me...

Junior High

ugh... so we registered... and i cried... nuff said ~ they are growing too fast... my folks always said that... i never got it... 'til now... and mostly it's just 'cause i love them... and i love being with them... and i don't want them to leave me... selfish i know... ugh

Super Bowl... seriously ~ 18-1 ~ AWESOME... my daddy is SOO happy... POETIC JUSTICE i say

note to self... next super bowl monday... take a personal day...

jordan apparently can shoot dice... which made her smile... and that is a good thing... already lost mother of the year award for this one... it was like 11pm on a school night... OOPS

i'm not sure when it became ok to have video games in my house... but not only are they here... they are starting to take over... that's gonna change

there is the possiblity that i may talk to the one that keeps me sane soon... to tell or not to tell... damn it...

U23D ~ GO SEE IT... if you even like one song they have ever sang you will enjoy it... if you consider yourself a fan... you'll be BLOWN. AWAY.


One Lyrics

i'm going again... this weekend even
