So it's been a while since I've written anything substantial....

So let's fix that, shall we???

- Anybody notice that all Michael W. Smith songs sound alike? I can't tell what his new stuff is...

- I got to go home to Booneville for Mother's Day. That was awesome. I love my Momma, and the Old Man, while he was sick, is good to see as well. I think I also have this realization that even though Booneville has some nice people, and growing up there has partly made me who I am today, I could NEVER move back there. I just couldn't. Even with the new golf course there, which is nice, any golfers reading this need to come with me and check it out....

- I've started working at Beech Bend Park, and it's not that bad. I'm working a ride called the "Flying Bobs" and I talk in a microphone throughout the day. Right now it's really slow, so it gets boring at times, and it's rained a lot, so I haven't made a whole lot of money, cuz I get sent home early. But as the summer comes and we're open everyday, I'm gonna be running around a lot more, get really worn out, maybe lose some of the weight that I need to, and make a little more money. Still wish I was heading back to camp though. Them Flying Bobs will never compare to "The Bob" and that's all there is to it.

- I hate having those days where I wonder what the crap I'm doing with my life, but they are becoming more prevalent. Don't get me wrong, I ain't above working at an amusement park, but it's over basically in August, when we go back to weekend duty. Why can't a brother find a job? To be honest, I had two moments in my life since camp that I thought I saw the grand plan, and then neither really happened. I really thought something might be happening at CFR, especially with the Evening Cafe opening up. But the funds just aren't there. And then I really thought God was just keeping me outta work to make it easier to pack up and head to CVP and work year round, but that was a one time conversation that didn't amount to anything significant, and then never mentioned again. So I don't know what the crap is going on. Nor do I try to figure it out. I just have to continue to trust, continue to build toward His kingdom, and continue to know that I serve a God that knows so much more than me, it's not even funny.

- Oh yeah, and everyone in Booneville wants to know when I'm getting married....ha.
