Random Thought Bubbles

I thought I might just let you in the "know" of thoughts skipping through the river of information flowing through my brain. I think and believe that I would make a great principal. Just saying. Like the principal of a high school. I think I could really change some of the really bad kids' lives. I feel like if a kid was sent to my office. I wouldn't just punish him like a dog or send him away with a pink slip. I may just take that kid out to lunch and disciple him a little. Just thought of it...

This guy knows what I'm talking about

Update ... but Upbeat!


Well, although I have no one that follows me other than my aunt and my wife... I thought I would throw in a little something while taking a break from cleaning. To update myself I'd like to say that I got married and it was a decision that was the riskiest, most time consuming, life altering decision I've ever made, and aside from accepting the Lord as my savior, it has been the BEST decision I've ever made.


Let me Lay it out for you. "A" of all....


  
precious
"B" of all ... 
Honky-Tonk

"C" of all...
 
Um... please tell me you understand by now..
Most precious honky-tonk jesus-american and LOVES DOGS!
Like Where the heck were you all my life?

anyway....

As of recently, I have been scouring the internet for a new-used vehicle. To no avail unfortunately, and my poor wife has been so patient with me. Luckily, I've taken her advice and am now looking a lower priced vehicles. In fact, I came across a 97 4 runner with 120,000 miles today for $3900! That's a deal.

*Fancy*

And there is another newer one but its a little more expensive. This could be the ticket to success. BUT my wife is a lot smarter than me and I like to run these types of decisions by her first. Even if she does get tired of staking the obvious boundaries of smart car buying. :) Sometimes I just get excited. 

So be praying for us! We will be saying HELLO to SOUTH CAROLINA soooon. Januaryish, that is. We have come to this decision through a lot of waiting and praying on the right thing to hit us in the face, and frankly I have a black eye.

P.S. Super excited about living near some SUPA cool relatives (AKA the Whitaker-Matzek Mix-UP)
Love you All!

This day, I shall finish all of my music appreciation homework. Right now, it seems I have hit a hard chapter because you cannot find anything in the text to answer the tests. Bleh. This is what I had for breakfast.
Yes, it IS a fried egg over easy with a slice of white cheddar 
on top of toast with cream cheese spread aside a half avocado... Good guess.
Mamaw Dot has been promising Erin a new car for her graduation present. We went and got it last Saturday :)
 It looks kind of like this... except its Ebony Grey Metallic
(Erin's so sporty)

In other news, I have failed to post many pictures and videos of Alexander like I promised to Erin. I did not fail, however, to devise this media in the past week. Here are some examples:

When you leave Alexander alone, he gets the blues.
 

This is the first known occurrence of Alexander snuggling with Daisy
Crikey.

I wish we could appoint a small one-bedroom cabin for this clearing
 Anybody want to loan me 35,000 dollars to buy this land from my dad?

Well, as I mentioned. I am planning to do a lot of homework today. Crawfish boil at church tonight. May be fulfilling.

 Constantly on my Heart this Season -

1 Corinthians 13
 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 

- so good.

I May Have Forgotten to Mention...

By the way, last night, in the pitch dark, I felt my puppy beside me. Knowing that he was close I snuggled my face into his, like rubbing noses. I reached down to scratch his bottom and instead found his ears in my hands....

Yes, it happened. Later on in the night he turned around. He probably didn't want me to feel embarrassed for making such a mistake.

This is what I thought I was feeling...
This is what it felt like I was feeling...
This is what I was feeling. Yep. Goodnight.

Will He Not Leave the 99 for the One?

I thought I may Post today. I am currently finishing my Jazz Appreciation class, so that's fun. I updated my Profile Picture as well:
This is Alexander, my new dog. He's a hoot.
When he's not a hoot, he's a sleep.

I was pleased to accompany my mother today in a dress expedition. Normally, I don't like shopping. I'd much rather do something that calls to my inner man. However, I've had much experience through my dearest Erin on lady's clothes. I must say, today was more than a success. We found a green dress, just like she wanted, and I picked her out a belt and recommended that she use some type of shrug with the dress. It was a good combination and nice to see my mom twirling around for once. I'm glad she felt pretty because she sure did look it.
So afterward, we got a bite to eat. I am loosing my appetite for high calorie meals. I ate wings and yeast rolls, but I couldn't muscle through the loaded potatoes and fried mushrooms; there was just too much grease on my fingers.
Upon arriving home, I did not see my dog Alexander howling at me. So I decided to sneak around the back of the gate to surprise him. As I crept with the creepiest of creeps, my crux, my pup, was no where to be seen. So I commenced to calling and whistling, but to no avail; my puppy was not in the yard. Panic had not overwhelmed me until a visit to the neighbors' yard served me no success.  I have just decided that I really want this dog, and now I have lost him... Crap. I called, I clapped, I whistled, and rapped at the door to my neighbors' once again. He answered this time and told me not to fear, for my dog was sitting around the corner. On the deck he looked right at my face and ran right to my leg. I brought that one little lamb home with me, and now he sits on my bed.
Got in the zone there, sorry. I'll pick back up...

Days come and go, pulling me closer to my wedding day. Right now, I am a bit nervous, for various reasons. Mainly, I just want to be someone Erin can admire as her husband. Someone she can brag on. I've done my best to flex my muscles, but I am finding, such respect can only be obtained through hearty spirituality. So into my roots I go, hence a blog post. I don't intend on being mushy. I probably already write to quaint for most egotistical males to relate to me. Who cares, my mom always said in the words of Popeye, "I yam who I yam, and that's all that I yam."
More to come?...

Started out worshiping the Lord today to "Everything you do" by Cory Asbury.
(only by coincidence, I found this same song posted on my fiance's blog just a couple of days ago)

Valentines Day

Dear Universe & Erin,

Well many of you may not know, but today is Valentine's Day. I am awake and ready to go to work with my dark chocolate Hershey's bar thanks to a fine and beautiful maiden. She is a wonder to me. When I think back to our time together and all that we have been through, I am so glad I have chosen Erin. No one else could better love me than her, and I have chosen love, this day, and I all my days to come. I did not choose a girl who played hard to get, who was a tease, but a girl who was passionately and intently concerned about the person I am. Better even still, she was a girl shut up in a castle tower, and it took faith in God and humility to retrieve her. The person I am is fulfilled by only one other. Miss Erin Webb, I love you.

Most Sincerely,
Christopher
