ahhhhhh. just got back from the lotus lounge with some work kids. they have this most incredible booth, a deep U shape, plush like nobody's business, great for conversations about the dalai lama, christianity, familes, card games, such things. they had a dj spinning/scratching..on a teusday night. it was nearly clear why they gave him the teusday nights. but way to go, support your up and coming dj's.

sunday night i hung out with my friend jen from school who is interning at a church over on the northshore. went and checked out russ rosen at the backstage lounge, (saw some ash and kenton's), then a yummy, late supper at the foundation. and i credit that supper for the oddness and imajinative complexity of my dreams that night.

i've had a rad time in my life lately, connecting to people's lives as a christian. connecting in a way where i'm me and real and not some punk suffering from fetal christian syndrome. god has graciously allowed me to be comfortably vulnerable with some cool people about jesus and my faith..and not felt like a tool.

so now its my weekend
and she rests.

i'm lucky in my life for people who show me what real life looks like.
or rather, people who are real with me day in and out with aspects to jesus, faith, marriage, freedom..such things.
it seemed like, for most of my life, i never saw real.
or maybe i did, maybe i didn't know what it was.
but i do know that now, i walk my life a little wiser, more assured.
more assured that everything's easy, everything's hard, everything's worth it.
peace perfect peace

i'm trying to remember what he said..
"wow! look at that guys musceled butt! nice work buddy"

cypress day yesterday was greeeat. i am now a carver instead of a featherer. mostly. anyways, i'm sore.
my vehicle has pushed itself one more notch on the annoying meter..something went clink coming down the mountain and now its like there is no muffler. sooo loud. anyone know any reputable garages? help.

dudes i havn't been as tired as i was yesterday in a long time. usually when i think i'm so tired, i go home, and i get like a second wind. but yesterday..man, no teeth brushing..just into bed. a good 10 sleep. i have to work in two hours. i'm still yawning, i think its because i'm hungry.

ah kids, its media week here on the blog. articles to read, words to listen to, more to come lets hope lets hope. i'm about to sit down at watch 21 grams now. i got some new shoes today. they were not two dollars. i've had a harder week, but thats when he likes to show his faithfulness the most. i marvel.

"i want to expierience christ to the fullest. you know, and i don't want to be distracted by..so oftan, its so easy to let morals or convictions or just certain things in life, to rob us of and experience with christ because we're expected to live a certain way, and act a certain way and talk a certain way and experience a certain way..but when you trust christ, christ might put something on your heart thats completley different!....
but in order for us to be willing to be obedient to christ and say stuff thats just not all the same old church stuff and all the same old stuff that we grew up with, for us to hear a new voice, and to bring the message of christ but what he's telling us now what he's got for us now, we've got to learn to trust in him, so those roots can go deep....

..sometimes its just time to shut the hell up, plug your ears, and listen to god. (he talk in your brain, he can make it through ears)"

go listen to this its 'starving bakker'
