Tankerous Tuesday

Its Tuesday and yesterday was absolutely gorgeous!!!! It was a great weekend of fun with the Mrs. My nephew celebrated his 7th birthday at Bounce U. Its fun to just relax and be a kid again with other kids grown and/or tiny. The second most fun part was watching my brothers expression once he figured out our gift was a drum set. PRICELESS! Thats one of the things that makes a good uncle; the vision to see a good gift beyond the momentary headache.
This day is crawling like a fat man on his naked belly over floor of broken glass; its only gonna stay this pretty if I dont have to look up. Speaking of which, I saw the stupidest funny movie, Stepbrothers, later that night and almost had a sore throat from laughing. Reality is the greatest of comedies.

I think I feel like some act of random kindness. Its been a while since I did something like that. I thought about it yesterday but talked myself out of it. Despite my slightly itchy throat, I feel like dishing out some nice. It deptends got my juices flowing with a great blog yesteday that really sparks some debate; not attacks. It is only more reinforced after watching the President last night. We LOVE being armchair quaterbacks! We all have a shovel of criticisms and advice that are perfect from a seated position. If only our brains thought as well as our butts; we wouldnt even be in a crisis; our families would be prefect and politician and lawyers wouldnt be in the same categories.

They say there is a storm headed this way. The Terminators are coming. Save the cheerleader, save the world. That theme has been around since Nostradamus and long after I'm gone. Speaking of cheerleaders; what has happened to Heroes? Did all the characters get a lobodomy after last season? (except Sylar) The last time I saw this many stupid people confused at the same time, I was at a ........well, nevermind; thats another blog. Sylar, there's a character to truely enjoy; basic, savage, single-minded, focused, power-hungry. The weakness of a heroe is his/her humanity.

Buggy TN Morning

I rolled into the office topless this morning and it was great. Its easy to see how one might become addicted to such exposures. The wind, the sun, and the onlookers all in one failed glance. Once the dark sunglasses fell into place, so did the speedometer. Let it ride! The sunrise was sparkling. The hum of man and machine in synchronicity at its best. Its been a great car! In fact, I cannot imagine not having it. I guess everyone hasnt been so fortunate in bug purchases; afterall I keep hearing these horror stories about electrical problems and the like. Not here; but its paid for and so have at it!!!!

For we see thru a glass vaguely...

It's a beautiful day despite sleeping very little. The truth is that I require very little sleep. This Tuesday is thought provoking. I revel in the thrill of just creating — whether its growing a plant or creating a document. I haven't been able to pen down a mood this week...it's as though I am fighting something I cannot see. I am sure I mentioned this before but I like the idea of hunting and slaying demons. I think they know that and are still trying to figure out how much of that is real and how much of a scaredy cat would I be if they actually showed up, or "manifested" as the demon-educated would say.



I watched the Exorcism of Emily Rose, based on a true story this weekend. My stepson said it terrified him. I guess I was more fascinated than terrified since I have seen some of these things before. It actually made me a little excited. I knew they knew I was watching it and thinking about them. Since, I have had a hyper-sense or two that something entered or was watching. I guess I dont have enuf sense to be terrified. My only fear would be for those around me. Afterall; they don't play fair...something I love and hate about them. It was refreshing to see a movie that didnt make wiennies out of the God-focused people. The priest never backed down; he never lost focus or identity; and he never recanted. He stayed true to the truth in spite of the circumstances or consequences. Don't be fooled; the truth always costs. Lies one tends to pay for in increments; the truth is a lump sum. I need to do some research on the actual story of the posession and its victims. I am reminded of a book that also need to just own. They Shall Cast Out Demons by Derek Prince. Fantastic book with some very spiritually-powerful stuff; not for the faint hearted or just pure experimenters....stuff really happens! The overarching punchline: if one exists; so must its opposite — isnt that refreshing? It's one of the most sustantial proofs of God; if you choose to ignore all the other beautiful and intricate things around us everyday, including ourselves.



Anyway, on this side of the sunshine, I am reminded to just be thankful. I am thankful for a great wife. I am thankful for a break in the triple digit temperatures and and my flowers getting some natural rain. I am thankful for life, health and strength. I am just getting back onto a fantastic workout schedule. Now I just need to make my biblical reading more solidified in my morning routine along with crunches and some Kona coffee. I must say, a warm, beautiful wife does tend to make one less committed to gettng up early or more properly said — more required to be more disciplined to get up and do what is necessary to honor and keep all the things to be so thankful for. The universe has rules...and they bend for noone or thing for very long. Beware the darkness; it has eyes and teeth. If you see it; then it has already seen you. We would much prefer our illusions.
