Today I went to a lovely little fabric shop to get the needed materials for a future costume. Well, I needed to use the facilities and went back to do so, but the restroom was in a weird position and there was only one for males and females. So all I could see was women gathered around the restroom pretending they were looking for something, while in reality they were just waiting for someone to get out of the restroom. Well, I did the same for some time, until I got tired of acting interested in rugs and wandering how strange this line system worked in the back of this fabric shop. Well I went back looking at fabrics with Mother and Melissa, then when I could not focus any more, I went and tried the bathroom once more. Well, fortunately there were none awaiting the use of the facility. So, I waited for the lady to get out. Once she began coming out, I walked to the water fountain to avoid any unusual enter/exit interaction. All was going well. Then, I entered the restroom. Only to gag at the smell of poop. Women do indeed poop fellas. There were no other guys waiting for the restroom in there. And only one other guy I spotted in the whole store. I opted to hold it for a little longer. At that point I would have rather wet myself than spend a minute in there. I did indeed go back and someone before me left the door open, so I could smell it as I came up on it. I guess that softened the blow of my entrance into the restroom, which during my first go around was worse than opening a fridge and finding that everything in it went bad. So, to conclude, women not only poop, they can really clear a room. I mean, no one was even shopping back there for quite some time. Oh, the things I learn at a Fabric store. Which, I wouldn’t suggest you go to if you’re in a hurry and want to have something cut.

meteor shower

Well, Last night was an adventure. So we decided to stay up late and go to a meteor shower. Four of us in my truck, was the plan. So I got my big coat and a blanket to use as a warmer. And while I was out there I saw that there was water all in the back of my truck. So, I decided that I would drive around to get the puddle of water out of my truck and then went up to get some towels (so we didn’t sit on a wet truck bed) and my comforter just in case they didn’t bring enough warm things. So I put the towels on the back for us to sit on and the comforter and some more of my jackets in the front. As usual, I locked the truck and was fixing to walk back to wait for them. The minute I shut my truck, I felt for my keys and realized they were in the truck. And when I looked into my locked truck, there was my key. So we ended up going in Yates truck, since my spare key was at home. So we ventured out, beyond the lights of the school and onto the sports side of campus. Only to see a thick batch of clouds. What a night for viewing a meteor shower. Haha. But sitting in my favorite weather was great, along with the sharing of stories and being with friends.

oh andy

Every time I watch the Andy Griffith Show, I doze off to the sound of Andy Griffith and Don Knotts chatting and the old tune the show provides. This lovely nap is always rudely awakened by the following show, Jerry Springer. What a strange order to put shows.

Lately it has been great takin Jovie on some late night strolls and around town. Also bike riding in Little Rock and around the ol’ campus. And as the winter season approaches, so does my willingness to go outside and explore.

leadership

Recently I was given the opportunity to help out with International Food Fest and actually be a co-director with one of the internationals. This is pretty fun, yet it is different being in such a leadership role. Trying to get people to perform is difficult. It goes from hanging out with people, to having those people be possible suspects for performing. I do not think I like this aspect of it. I hope people just accept that they are good at a certain gift and play instead of shying away, thinking they aren’t good enough. We’ll see.

Finding a place for a fictional holiday is a lot harder than I thought.

Smoking

I once had a strong urge to take part in this activity. Then I took a deep breath and I came to an easy decision. The breath in fact relieved me of the previous stress. Who knew? But I’ll still light you up if needed.

If Martinelli's made a commerical

I would want to be the lad that is enjoying this splendid treat off Apple Juice on a televised advertisement. I was just settling for all the other brands. But this stuff, has proven its gold medal in taste to me. Also, I would like to say that I am presenting on the Holy Spirit next Tuesday. It is on Galatians 5:22-26. It shall be an experience. I guess it will be the start of something new for me, teaching. Before the throne of God is probably my favorite Christian song if you were wandering, that is if we can have a favorite Christian song. And to further play favorites, I would go with Shane & Shane’s version. My advise now to you is this, live out today for what today brings may just bring another yesterday, but there is always a possibility that it may in fact open a door for tomorrow. Haha. I sound like a motivational speaker. But, to really further your walk with or even understand God and Jesus and the Spirit, I would recommend this Workbook, which in reality is an amazing Bible Study. Click here to view and hopefully purchase.
