Facebook Thoughts
I have to admit that I was a little bit late to the Facebook game (and VERY late to the Twitter game)... I kind of like how Facebook lets me get to know people (albeit superficially) that I wouldn't have ever known. It helps me to recognize people at my church that I wouldn't necessarily have known without it. It is however starting to annoy me a ( Read more... ) -
Solo
I haven't posted a video of me singing here in quite a while... I pretty much only put them online so that my grandmother can see them, and she's on Facebook now. Anyway, here's my second most recent solo from August 28th. It's the acoustic version of "Hear Our Song" as originally performed by Jadon Lavik. My friend Stephen McNeill (of the band ( Read more... ) -

Many things have happened since my last LiveJournal post. I post to Facebook regularly (and even read here regularly), but keep forgetting to post things ( Read more... ) -
Lighter Side
A few weeks ago, a friend of mine (that plays guitar in our church praise band) posted a link to The Rabbit Room to Facebook. He was referencing in particular a blog entry by Andrew Peterson about the Harry Potter books.
For the general concept behind The Rabbit Room, read http://www.rabbitroom.com/about-the-rabbit-room/. It's basically a ( Read more... ) -
Gym and Ruth
For those of you that don't know, I've been working at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center for the past couple of years (since the FedEx layoff, right after Ruth was born.) Anyway, we have a gym at work that's free for employees to use, and I've been making an effort to work out more in the mornings before I head into work ( Read more... ) -
Google+
Have any of you had a chance to check out Google+ yet? It's supposed to be Google's attempt to replace Facebook. Anyway, I got in via a friend, and there's a loophole that can let me add people as long as I know their gmail address... Let me know if you want an invite. This is a special invite that keeps you from having to wait in line like the ( Read more... ) -
Biking
I'll be riding my first long ride of the season on Saturday. It's in Collierville, TN and will be between 63 and 68 miles. 62 miles is commonly called a "Metric Century" (100K), but I think that's stupid. I joke around with my friends that run that they only measure stuff in kilometers when they want the number to sound bigger. For instance, "I ( Read more... ) -

Ruth's Second Birthday
Ruth's second birthday was this past Saturday. We had family over (two grandparents, three great grandparents, and a great uncle.) We also got to Skype with my sister and brother-in-law who live in West Virginia. Ruth also had a little friend and her mom stop by. We invited three little girls, but the other two happened to be out of town that ( Read more... ) -
Phone Company (and AT&T)
Our original phone number finished porting over to Ooma last Friday, so we're now totally free and clear of the phone company (CenturyLink.) We also now have unlimited local and long distance when calling from our house ( Read more... )
