Seriously, please stop posting about the snow, people. Why is it good when it snows??? I understand public school kids being excited, because its a 2 hour delay or whatever, but Liberty kids, we already have the week off...so basically the snow just makes the road slick for driving. And I have CBC anyway, so I have to go. Unless I decide to skip. And no, I'm not one of those people who takes their car out and does donuts, it's not really my deal. Basically, it's just freakin cold, and wet, and somewhat annoying to drive in, very annoying when you are stuck behind white knuckle drivers. So call me negative, but I dont get really excited when it snows.
Now, I am quite excited to have the week off. I could use the sleep, some extra time at the club, and hopefully some more time to hang out with friends.
I dont think people realize how committed I get to stuff. Not in a bad way though. For example, I attend two youth groups, intersect and new vintage youth church. I have had people from both groups happy to have me there, but also like "I'm kind of surprised you keep coming." I think this is because people see me just standing places, sort of dejected looking I guess, and think that is how my life sort of goes. Fact is, I am not good at small talk. Surprise. I feel so lame just going up to people without anything really to say. This is also why I dont text people a lot. Once I get talking its fine, it's not like I'm a totally boring person(I dont think), but starting conversations just seems weird. I usually end up making a couple of general statements back and forth and then it just gets awkwardly silent, like I'm supposed to say something but I really dont have a clue what to say that would be interesting to talk about. That's probably another problem, not wanting to make simple small talk. I like knowing people, I dont really like acquaintances.
anyway i got off track. When I go to something more than like twice, or if I sign up for something on my own, without being practically forced into it, I will probably keep coming. Projects are the same way. I'm either like, "this is stupid" or "this is pretty cool." This ties back to doing things 100% i think, I'm either in or I'm not. So that's enough learning about me today.
Yesterday I went to the Blazers Jazz game. I am not so pleased that the Jazz won, but it was the Blazers fault. They didnt guard CJ Miles, who was on fire. Seriously, get a hand in the shooters face please. But nicolas batum had one of the sickest reverse layups Ive seen, so that was nice.
Tonight Intersect had an all worship night, and I got to play guitar so that was a nice experience. However, my guitar tone sounded horrible, since I ran through the floor pod and my amp. Normally I just use the floor pod as a whammy and occasionally other effects, and just leave the tone for the amp, but that was not the case tonight. Oh well, it turned out alright anyway, even if we didnt play Come All Ye Weary, which I just want to do sometime for someone. Eh, it'll happen.
Showbread came out with a new album. Its free at comeandlive.com. It sounds so much different though and I'm not so sure I like it, but it might grow on me. I do love the song "Myth of a Christian Nation." And I like that they are staying purely Chistian even though they arent on tooth and nail records anymore. I hope the free tour they are putting on comes around here, and is after bball season.
I want to work out, I want to write music, and I want to read a lot of books even though I dont really enjoy reading because I like learning new stuff, especially stuff that helps me grow spiritually. Although I do also want to get through Stuff All Good Players Should Know too. I should be able to do some of all that stuff this week, which is good.
Then on December 1st I have ACL surgery. Please keep me in your prayers, pray for safe recovery and that the graft is good and holds up this time. The second repair generally has a lower success rate than the first one, but I am getting a new type of graft so hopefully it will do better. I would appreciate any prayer I can get. Thanks.
