Updizzate...
Wow, it’s been almost 2 months since I’ve written anything in here. That might be the longest gap this journal has had in its almost 5 years of existence.
So what’s going through my noggin? A lot really.
So, I have revived the Operation Unfat campaign. It’s been rather on and off while I was at college, but now that I have an established job and routine up in Mechanicsville, it has been a lot easier. So far I have killed 11 pounds and I’m hoping to keep up the trend. I’ve been hitting up the gym five days a week, running four or five miles a day. It’s very empowering even though I am whooped afterwards. Sometimes it’s hard to get motivated, but since it’s been successful so far, I can usually keep myself going. Ya’ll can pray for me about this because it’s really important for my health and also for my whole self image.
I’ve also had a lot of time to play guitar and what not since the move. When I have free time in the office or at home, I usually pick it up and play. When I’m in the office, I will sometimes go to the Sanctuary and play around on the piano. Jordan Clark has encouraged me to work on a CD, and since I was thinking about it anyways, I just may do it. It’s just going to be a matter of me spending some serious time writing and finding some inspiration.
The ministry is really going good. These people are restoring my faith in Christians (which anyone who knows me can tell you has been shaken a lot in the past couple of years). Our church is going through a lot of transitions though. It is very stressful. Even though I love being there, I sometimes wonder if I bit off more than I can chew there. The next year or two are really going to define and even redefine Pole Green as a congregation. Our ministry there needs all the prayer it can get.
For the most part living in my place is cool. I enjoy having a place of my own. Friends come over and hang out some, and it’s cool. But a lot of times I get kinda lonely. It’s a lot different than living in a dorm with dozens of other guys, but I know in time I will adapt. I miss all the friends I have back in Hampton Roads and RBC from time to time, but I am also making some new ones in Mechville.
Anyhow, I’m cut this out before it turns into a puddle of emo.
I’m out like Peter Jennings.
