10,000 leagues under the radar
I've undergone some changes lately, and I've been incredibly out of touch. For one, I haven't been able to go online in about a month (every coffee shop I'd been to, the internet wouldn't work for some reason but today I've finally hit the jack pot), and second, my cell phone broke last week and it's been a long, bitter journey toward replacing it ( Read more... ) -
this story is long overdue
A month ago, Erica and I discovered that Jason Mraz (our hero, biggest songwriting influence, celebrity crush, etc.) was playing a show in our hometown of Lincoln, NE. So even though the show was sold out, we hopped in the car and drove 12 hours to see him live. We figured we could buy tix from a scalper outside the venue.

the sick-of-being-sick post
I think the word 'phlegm' is an onomonopeia. I've got phlegm on the brain, because I've also got it on the throat. Mmm, mmm, good. Phlegm-a-licious. You know you like it ( Read more... ) -
short term mission trip
Three weeks ago, my church (Lifelink) announced they would be sending a team to Nicaragua this summer. They asked us to pray about possibly going. When I prayed, I said, God if you want me to go, I'd need more than just the expenses of the trip to be provided for, but also the money I would lose by missing that much work. It's a ten day trip ( Read more... ) -
Memphis in May
Look guys, if there was ever a reason to come down to Memphis and visit me, this is it. May 4-7 is the Beale St. Music Festival, and every year it is amazing. This will be my 3rd year going, so I can show you the ropes of navigating the crowds, find parking, and I could even host many guests on the HUGE couch in my apartment! It'll be a great ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Today I exploded a can of diet pepsi in the refrigerator. It sounded like a gunshot, scared me half to death, it left not a corner of the fridge untouched by pepsi slush. Yum. Good thing I have all that practice cleaning out refrigerators from working at Cracker Barrel.
Oh, Cracker Barrel, the memories. One time I spilled an entire jug of ( Read more... ) -
rain and the cleansing power of music
It's one of those grey days that feels really fresh outside, and the smell of rain is so sweet you could wait outside all day until it falls. I love days like this, almost as much as sunny days. I listen to John Denver and pretend I'm in the mountains ( Read more... ) -
miracle
I've been having a lot of migraines lately. Like 1 or 2 a week, and it's been just awful. Each time, I pray that God would heal me, and I've had countless people pray for me to be healed, but it just hasn't happened. Until yesterday ( Read more... )
