| So yeah, its been while but glad to be back. Hope everyones been
doing well. So, despite the long period between my previous post
and this one, I really don't have that much to say. I guess I'll
just give you a random run through of my current state.
I'm coming home tomorrow for the first time since March, so I'm excited
about that. I'm about 99% ready to quit my job, so thats been a
topic of instability lately. I have absolutely no clue what I
want to do with the rest of my life, which is getting shorter and
shorter with each passing day, but what else is new? For the
first time in over a year I have actually developed serious deep-down
feelings for someone, which is pretty pimp. But...(and yes there
is always a "but") I'm not sure what she really wants out of the
relationship, so thats a little frustating.
It just hit me a few minutes ago that for so long now I have been
content in my discontent and over the past week or so I have been
breaking out of that and really knowing that there is something great
for me. Its almost like the days leading up to Christmas. I
can see the present sitting under the tree, all wrapped up, just
calling for me to come and see whats inside. But I know that I can't go
open it because that would ruin the whole surprise and entire purpose
of the gift. I hate waiting games. It seems like my entire
life is just that now, a huge games of hide-and-go-seek with my future
that I can never seem to win. It sucks, sucks bad. But I'm
getting used to that.
Don't get me wrong, I am happy. Happier than I could have imagined
being about 16 months ago, minus a few specific details. I just
know that God has something huge planned for me. I know it, its sitting
there wrapped up under the Christmas tree. But days of
anticipation grow long and tiresome.
But...anyway! So, like I said before not much has changed.
I won't lie to ya, it'll probably be a while before I post again.
But best wishes to whoever may stumble upon this. Peace out!

| Well, here's an update, Holley. Well kind of an
update but more of a call out for prayer. I just got off the
phone with my mom and appartently today hasnt been a good day or so to
be a member of my family or even a close friend. Please be
praying for me and family (blood and spiritual).
First of all last night one of my friends made some
bad decisions and ended up getting a DUI and spending the night in jail
(names will of course be changed to protect the.....well...guilty). But
please be praying for "Billy Bob" and his family, its been a rough day
and they need some comfort and peace. These people have been as
close as family for a long time and I love them all to death. "Billy
Bob" is like a little brother, I feel like I've failed with his actions.
Secondly, my Aunt Nancy has appartently been having
some medical problems lately and trying to keep some of them on the DL.
But through my other aunt my mom found out that she's been having some
heart problems and will need a pace-maker put in. I know that it could
be much worse but I can't imagine my life without her, too many summer
at the beach and Christmas's in New Orleans to ever forget. She's an
awesome, fun, spanish teaching (I won't hold that against her)
woman. Please pray for my Aunt Nancy, her heart, the discernment
of the doctors, and her family.
Thirdly, and maybe the one that hits my hardest, my
other aunt, Aunt Barbara, and her husband are getting a divorce. After
24 years of marriage, both had already been married previously
and lost their orginal spouses to suicide, they are getting a
divorce. I mean even though my cousins and therein my second
cousins didn't come from him, he was always my uncle, my Uncle
Bob. They were married before I was born so that just how I saw
it. I think the part the hits my the hardest is that I'm
losing half a family. His grandchildren from his previous marriage were
like my real cousins. I have spend more time with them than I have with
some people I am actually related to. I pray that I will get to see
them again and the Thanksgivings in Memphis won't be just a memory but
on-living tradition that no divorce can break. Please be praying
for my Aunt Barbara and Uncle Bob and for the rest of our respective
families.
The fact that I recieved like months worth of
bad news in about 10 minutes only makes me certain of how cruel and
manipulative satan is. I was sitting here editting a video for
the youth group, serving God, and I know that the enemy hates me, wants
me to die, and can't stand me doing anything for the name of Christ.
Yet, I stand firm in my Lord and rest in my Savior's arms. Only
He can cure my pains and the pains of my family. I praise you oh Lord,
Your unfailing love endures forever!

| So, yes, I am again officially property of Aeropostale. We open
on Friday and today we got out first shipment of actualy
merchandise. I got to the mall at 7:45am this morning and got
back into my car to come home at, wait for it.....wait for
it.....8:32PM!!!!! You can do the math! That's almost 13
hours! I am sooooooo tired and guess where I have to be at 8:00
again tomorrow morning. You know I'm complaining alot but I
really had alot of fun. I didnt realize how much I missed working
at this store. I don't know if this store can match my KY Oaks
Aeropostale but Peachtree Aero is gonna rock. It's cool to
actually know whats going on and everyone else be clueless. Can I get
an "amen" for job security?!?! Anyway, I'm gonna go get some grub and
go to bed and rest up for another exciting day @ Aero.

| YAY!!! Matt got a digital camera! Its always awesome spending
money you dont need to, am I right?? My mom would absolutely kill
me if she knew! I've been playing with it like nonstop since I
got it last night! Anyway, I guess thats all I've got for now.
Yippee, no more stupid monkey picture!

| So yeah, it finally stopped raining today. I was
pretty sure if it didn't soon I was gonna drown. I mean it was
raining buckets! It was raining cats and dogs! It was raining buckets
of cats and dogs! But, thankfully, the sun returned and all is
well.
Ok ok, I feel I need to address an epidemic
that has spread amongst the females around the world. A certain
individual who will, for now, remain nameless has become the physical
benchmark that all men are now to be measured by. But shall I point out
that a man should not be gauged by his wimpy little mustache, some
wavey locks, a neato foreign accent, or, needless to say, his pointy
ears!
Although my admiration for his archery and
swashbuckling skills (which I, personally, estimate as partially
cinematically fraudulant) exist, I feel overwhelmed and insulted by the
show of affection for this elf of a man. Folders, notebooks,
blankets, T-shirts, magazine covers; where must I go to escape you,
Orlando??? I, myself, have even been touched by the Curse of the
Bloom. My house gnome even bears the name of my overly-praised
adversary.
Why must you keep showing up in my favorite movies,
Mr. Orlando Bloom? Why can't you leave me alone? Dang you, dang
you to heck! You may be more beautiful than me or be able to beat
me in a fake, digitally enhanced sword fight, but dang it Orlando, my
hair is better than yours, so HA!!!!!!
