You and What Army?

i don't think that people read this blog. that's okay. i just write here to get my thoughts out of my head sometimes. it gets crowded in there. i need to write a paper. i lack motivation. why oh why oh why do i lack motivation? it seems like it would take an entire army to get me to do something i don't want to do... but then again, they might not even succeed. it seems that only one guy has the power to get me to do anything, and since he's me, he's not doing much to get me doing anything. maybe writing something at all other than that awful turabian title page will get me started. and maybe a nice shower. i don't like smelling myself the least bit funky. no sir no sir. i've been working more chillish music into my usually skull-crushing roster of bands. good stuff such as moby, dredg, okkervil river, the brothers martin, medeski martin & wood, muse, jonezetta, shiny toy guns, and a few other sweet acts of music. but i'm also listening to lots of extol, zao, and becoming the archetype. oh. and...

...i saw the freakin' Harlem Globetrotters. with my dad. it was awesome. and so is my dad. my whole family's pretty cool, even though they are second to none at driving me up the walls sometimes. always rushing around, no way to be in my opinion. i think i'm getting my writin' mojo flowin'... good thing it's a creative assignment and not research... i probably would have already given up.

...i've been reading that Bible book more and more... and even though i think i'm supposed to "get it" all, i sure don't. i'm workin' on it, and He's workin' on me. being a youth minister is hard. i'm glad that i won't be one forever. is that bad? i just want to get my wings goin'... pretty badly, but i'm content. i am!

there's a girl (isn't there always?) but there's a different approach this time. it's a different situation, i assure you! i'm done (for now, at least) falling for girls that i know too well and mistaking a stronger friendship for romantic feelings. no easier but hey i think i've got time.

summer plans... do i go back to buckner? not looking that way, but i don't know. do i stay home? i haven't done that in many many years. it would be weird but could be lots of fun. should i go out of state? colorado, california, or pennsylvania may be calling my name... we'll found out in time.

...i think i'm going to love the northwest.

~the albatross was once bulletproof, but they've made bigger bullets since then.
