Subject: how country are turnip greens?
i hate B-93. and i dislike a vast majority of country music. i just had to get that off of my chest.

something else i've had to get off my chest:
when i went to the snows' house saturday night, while shannon was babysitting, when i went to the bathroom, there was a sign on the mirror that said "J.O.Y."

it was an acronym, that said "jesus first, others second, yourself third". now, this really irked me. not because of putting others before yourself, i do that all the time. it's the only way to fly. but the problem i have, is with putting jesus before others. that's like... holy war, or some shit. now, i know that's not what they had in mind with the whole "joy" thing, but to me it just seemed ignorant. that jesus himself would likely want us to put others first, him second, and ourself third. or rather, that he was just another human. that he would include himself in the "others" and so, it would just be everyone else before you. that to me is what makes sense. putting jesus before others is just downright scary. i've seen it. not fun.

moving on, to a happier note, i bought some books and cds while i was down there, and i'm enjoying them very much. i'm not quite halfway through murder on the orient express yet. i'll let you know what i think of it, once i'm finished.

i proofread shannon's short story last night. i haven't heard back from her since i submitted my revisions.

and, inspired by her writing, and the rain and the thunder, and a conversation we had this past weekend, i began writing my own short story. which i'm sure will wind up being neither short, nor much of a story. but it'll be fun to write, i hope, anyway.

that's all for now. stuff to do. things to see. hours to sleep.

yeah, i haven't forgotten about you, even though i haven't been corresponding.

we still need to do a sunday night movie sometime, since it'll be a ghost town, i would assume that would be preferable.

or something. but yeah. i like comedies. and thanks for the note. hope things are going well with you.

oh yeah... you have a miata. i forgot about that. hmmm. ; )

june 28. it's like 3 weeks. that's the next question mark on my calendar. it's a wednesday.

panic concert july 13 (thursday) at the deltaplex. i thought it was at the orbit room for some reason. which made absolutely no sense to me. deltaplex is much more logical.

anyway, that's what my magic sheet says. as far as the fourth is concerned, i don't know. my plans are still pending, and i don't know what my work schedule will be like. but yeah.

shoot, i'm tired.

oh, cool beans.

well, sort of cool beans. we got floor tickets to the incubus show, and standing for that many hours became arduous. not that it mattered, because it was fucking incubus, but still. and aside from fighting the crowd and nearly getting kicked in the head, the floor seats bit worked out alright. so, i'll assume likewise for this venture.
