Days go by

Announcement: Matt Cooper has officially issued a public statement saying he will support Libertarian Party candidate Bob Barr for President of this great nation. Matt Cooper also said that YOU should vote for him because he is the ONLY candidate offering real change. Cooper also says "You can and should learn more about him at www.Barr08.com."

I have been so down lately about the constant, perpetual injustice done to the people of this country by the left-wing, that I am totally surprised by what was declared today by the Supreme Court in VA; that INDIVIDUALS have the right to bear arms. Wait... isn't that what the constitution says already? Rush made an interesting point today when he said, in essence, that we should be alarmed at the state of the nation when everyone has to wait and see if the supreme court will declare the constitution as being CONSTITUTIONAL...... He said we are like serfs waiting stressfully as to whether or not we will be given rights today, and worried about which ones will be taken away. No terrorist on earth is half the threat to America that liberal idealism is.


On a lighter note.... I started lifting "heavy" again last week, for the first time since high school. In high school, my junior year, I weighed 135 lbs., and my 1 rep max for bench press was 185 lbs. Now I weigh 160 lbs. and my max is 200 lbs, so needless to say I have lots of work to do before my ratio is as good as it was back then. I am going for a 250 lb. max by the end of july.... Hold me to it

I am gonna be working just about all day every day at InkPLUS this week if anyone wishes to come hang out, I am gonna be bored out of my mind.

under the weather

I am without doubt sick at this point. I am coughing a lot, my nose is running, and the medicine I have taken is making me feel very light and floaty, if thats a word. I also feel stretched spiritually, where it seems like its been forever since I heard what I had no doubt was the voice of God. Its tempting to believe that God has stepped back and decided to let me figure it all out on my own, although I know that isn't true. I am growing but it hurts and I am suffering but it is necessary. And to top it off, the reason I started a blog is so I could have an outlet for what I thought were frequently occurring bouts of inspiration to write, and I have yet to have one of those since beginning this blog. At this point i am unsure if anyone reads this as well.... lol

Feeling my way along

Well it's wednesday, although yesterday felt like wednesday, and the week is moving itself along appropriately. I was supposed to be at the beach this week playing music at a youth conference, but found out the night before I was to leave that I and my colleague, Austen "had not been accounted for" due to a lack of communication on the part of who, I do not know. So needless to say, after rescheduling my personal trainer's certification exam and holding off on a job offer, I have been set back. However, I remember, as the old cliche goes, "Everything happens for a reason." So I keep that in mind and don't have any hard feelings. I am simply going to learn from this and very carefully consider what I commit to in the future.
On the lighter side of things, I am now driving my father's truck instead of my Buick, which is for sale at an excellent price if anyone wishes to know further. I don't think the gas mileage on the truck is quite as good but I will live. If Newt Gingrich can get his petition off the ground (www.americansolutions.com go sign it) then we should be able to begin drilling on our own soil for oil and become independent of foreign supply. I think I could live with $1.30 a gallon again.

oh well... Stressful and education-filled week so far, keep me in prayers that I may figure out what God wants from me in the now and figure out the next step.

The First Post

Hello all, this is my first official post on what appears to be the new Xanga. I am personally using it as a vent, more or less, to express whatever is in my head, seeing as how I'd like to be an author one day. I'll consider this practice I guess. But, continuing, I suppose I will use this as a means to discuss spirituality, music, pop culture, health and fitness and, my favorite, politics. I don't claim to have all the answers, but I do have a whole lot of them.
