Ok, maybe I'm not smart enough to some up with a clever title for my first blog, and have to resort to a piddly attempt to sound smart by trying to make English words Latin. Hey, give me a break. My "Holy Crap" size of Amp hasn't kicked in yet and with this being my first blog, I have to come up with a pretty generic title considering this post is a quagmire of topics all swirled into one.
First let me inform you of my life short lived sitcom style. "I was just a kid running around with no clue where to go, what to do or how to get there. I was in a veritable teenage wasteland. That wasteland was... Avon Park, FL. I didn't want to be there, my parents drug me kicking and screaming from Indiana, my real home. I went to school and work but was merely existing. My only escape out of this 10th level of Hell (It was really that hot to this fatboy coming from a frigid climate) was going to church. You see I had heard about Christ and God all my life. I had been in and out of churches for a couple years, but never really understood Christ and what he did. However, in August of my Frosh. year, I received Christ as my Savior, because I came to the realization there was nothing I could to to atone for my sins, and that Christ was the only way.
So I kept going to church and became comfortably numb with the rest of my surroundings. So much so I actually began to like my little piece of torture. ( I still hate Florida but could live there without regret) After graduation, The best Friend anyone could ask for, Aaron Houser, begged me to come to a friends church with him. I did but under protest. I showed up dressed in my Sinister Brand pants. The legs were 16 inches wide, and had so many chains I sounded like a work detail from Alcatraz when I walked. I had black fingernail polish on and had a goatee to my chest. It was a Baptist church. Imagine their surprise. But come to find our I loved it there! They were actually teaching something!!! Unlike my church who as I know look back was so liberal and emergent it makes me sick.
So I continued to attend, and then one day the most beautiful girl walked in that I ever beset my eyes upon. Immediately I was in like and the quickly became in love. I was so up for this girl that the day before I was just going to ask her out on a date, I became so nervous I made myself sick and was in bed the next 2 days. But eventually, I did ask her out and she said yes. some time went by and on Oct. 20th 2007 The love of my live said yes again and became my Sweetie forever. Now we live in North Carolina whilst I go to Bible College and train to be a Youth Pastor.
And finally this seemingly sell-out, self edifying, glimpse into my head (something that can get quite scary at times, but will be calmed a little because this isn't so spontaneous). I will use this little piece of the technological world to amuse myself with my observations and commentary on society, vent about my annoyances (Which are quite many) and sometimes just to catch you up on my life. If I offend anyone with my writing, you either needed to be offended, or you need to lighten up. Seriously, it's just a blog, it's my thoughts, so ultimately I don't give a rip about offending you because I HATE pc and will steer completely away from it.
Each entry will not be this long, some may, I can ramble at times. Who knows how often I will update. We'll see. Have fun, and leave a comment. Thanx
