Strange dream
I usually have two types of dreams. One type is the kind that makes me feel like it’s symbolic of something happening in my life. The other is the kind I enjoy, the kind that entertains you with a situation or scenario that is beyond belief only to cover you with a cloud of dissapointment…

Bring on the entertainment!
Things are looking good… I’ve been able to go to work every day, work a full productive day and then come home for a relaxing evening usually envolving a movie, some guitar playing time and some time with Kristen. It’s great. I’ve been told that I tend to under-react to things, but I’m very happy…

It's been a while…
Things have been so crazy. Crazier than I ever remember them being before. But it’s good. I’ve got tons of stuff going on at work, Kristen’s teaching (and liking it), and we’re getting started on the not-so-long road of saving money to buy a house. It’s nice. Kristen has started her teaching job in Connersville.…

Just a lil' update
Haven’t written in a while, but that can be credited to my somewhat busy work schedule lately. There hasn’t been much going on really. Joene and Austin (my step-mom and brother) were in town for the last week and stayed with us Friday night and Saturday night. We had a great time going out to…

No more Mazda's in the house…
Kristen and I went last night to purchase her a new car. Her current car was still running okay, but wasn’t reliable enough to risk driving it back and forth to Connersville every day. So, we replaced it. We got a great deal on a silver, 2004 Honda Civic (see photo). It’s very nice (even…

LONG work week
We have a client in town this week for a week-long marathon work session. I’ve been working directly with him each day from 9:00 in the morning until around 11:30 or 12:00 each night. It’s taxing, but also a good amount of fun. Last night we watched Signs while working and that really helps keep…

The camp experience
I just returned from a week-long camp with Kristen and several girls from the youth group. I had never experienced a summer camp before, and I have to say that the movies have been pretty accurate in their portrayal of summer camps. It was everything I expected and more. There were little junior high boys…

Got a new car!
Well, after a long and somewhat disheartening process, I have a newer car! I still can’t hardly believe it, but I now own a domestic car and it’s nice. It’s a 2001 Ford Taurus SES with around 56,000 miles on it and it runs great. It’s a very good mix between visual style and performance…

Dealing with salesmen
What is it about salesmen that keeps them from being able to give someone a good deal without trying to squeeze every penny out of them first? We went last night to a dealership to try and get a sense of what the prices are for different levels of cars only to find that most…

Automobile Antics
Part of my weekend was spent looking at cars at various lots around town. Friday morning if you would have asked me what kind of car I wanted I would have told you a 2002 VW Jetta. If you would have asked me Saturday Night, I would have told you a 2004 Honda Civic. If…
