Ut OH!

Its after 10 and I'm not supposed to be awake anymore. I'm supposed to be sleeping so I can get up at 5.
Tomorrow I'm supposed to walk 50 minutes. They don't say how far I should get, so I'm going to shoot for going 3.5. Thats fast for me. I mapped out the route already and sealed it in my memory.
I love walking so early in the morning. Its still cold out and no one can tell who you are walking around. I need to enjoy these times because in a few weeks, the clocks will change and it will be sunny at 6. It feels really cool to be out there exercising before the sun even gets up the will to rise. It makes me feel like I'm hard core. hehe..Really Its the only time I can do it and not burn alive.

I did 30 minutes on the trainer tonight while watching biggest loser. it is by far and without a doubt my favorite show on TV at any given time. For the next 11 weeks I will build my life schedule around seeing this show. It looks to be fantastic!
What an awesome premise. People losing weight for money. The beauty of the show is...no one goes home a loser. Oh to goto a place where no one can go home a loser.

Tomorrow is a pot luck at work. I'll need to be extra careful with what I eat as I won't know the calories or nutritional values of anything I'm eating. I hate that. But I'm too poor to turn down free food. :) I know a lot of crap. I know a lot of stuff about exercise and fueling and caloric intake and output...I dont know everything, sure...but I feel like I know more now than the average bear. Which leads me to feel empowered. I'm not just able to make good choices, but the best choices. I'm not just able to get out an exercise, I'm able to train! it feels pretty good really...

But not as good as this pillow under my face.
I'm beat...
See you tomorrow.

listless

I'm not sure what is going on in my head, but i'm very uninspired lately. i feel like there is so much more I should be doing, but its like i'm watching life from through a window. like i have no real impact on the story, i just sit and watch it unfold and hope the story starts getting adventurous. I'm chosing to call it uninspired because that still leaves the door open for me to have some kind of impact. Like if i could just muster up some passion for something I would be able to find some great purpose and meaning in what I'm doing. I'm thinking about all the kids going back to school and the college students heading off for a new year, and I'm finding that I'm jealous. My life doesnt cycle like that anymore. There is no rise and fall with the seasons. There is no connection to the calendar. Everyday bleeds by in the same numbing pattern. My clothes barely even change with seasons anymore. everyday finds itself looking exactly like the last: wake up l...

whats your self worth?

People have said, something is only worth what someone would pay for it. If what you're selling, no one is buying, then what you have is pretty worthless. But there are stores out there that sell all kinds of things and so the market makes room for them. People are the same. Some people are beautiful, but useless for more than their looks. Like a painting they are worth a lot because people see them as rare.But, some people can go their whole lives without decorating. Some people are useful and so are worth a lot because they fulfill some purpose. Hardworking, or smart, they are seen has having some value that makes them worth the investment. Then there are people I'd characterize as novelty people. You buy them because you've just never seen anything like them. They're especially entertaing or unique. They don't cost a lot, so you can't pass them up. Then there are bargain people. They don't cost much, arent worth much and don't last long. They fill a s...

Musical Unity: A response to Michael Gungor

When I first started listening to Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) the only people around were Amy Grant and Michael W Smith. Maybe Kathy Tricolli and Sandi Patty...Any maybe Carmen, but why mention Carmen? Shortly before I started listening to CCM there was no such thing as CCM. The 80s were just about a barren wasteland for Christian entertainment. We had a handle on good old Gospel and regular people started writing worship music. My life wouldn't be the same without Keith Green. But then came the 90s. WHAT an AMAZING time!! Right? DC talk, Audio Adrenaline, Newsboys, OC Supertones...Holy Music COW! If you were a young Christian, you could turn your radio up proudly and still feel cool. It was EPIC. From 15-21 I didn't listen to much other than CCM. Only the cool CCM of course. The stuff that the local Christian radio station only played on Friday Nights. Then I hit 21 and was, practically overnight, too cool for CCM. I bought a soapbox on top of which I declared ...
