Did I do something wrong?
1 dead battery, air conditioner malfunctioning, 1 giant screw in tire, and now I lock my keys in the car. Please tell me who I pissed off so I can make amends.

Free To Be Me - Francesca Battistelli
At twenty years of age I’m still looking for a dream A war’s already waged for my destiny But You’ve already won the battle And You’ve got great plans for me Though I can’t always see (Chorus) ‘Cause I got a couple dents in my fender Got a couple rips in my jeans Try to fit the pieces together  But perfection is my enemy On my own I’m so clumsy But on Your shoulders...

Day Two: Denial
I am in denial about a few things. First, weddings cannot cost this much. I understand the need to be a member of a church to use their facilities, but to then charge those people $1,200.00 to use it for a few hours is crazy. So far no progress with the things to do list. Second, moving across five states cannot be this difficult. Loading the truck took one day, driving back to Texas a day and a...

Day One: Where To Start?
For those of you that don’t know…I got engaged on December 20, 2009.  I thought I would write a little something about the process and see where this leads.  It will include the good and bad days, some will be short and some long, but here they will be for you to read.  Email me if you have suggestions, ideas or comments, all are welcomed. (mixes.by.momo@gmail.com) It has been eleven...

writing about the smell of a new, crisp book.  I mean come on I know I am not the only one that walks into Barnes and Noble and takes a deep breath, then thinks wow that is one of the best smells in the world.  It is that subtle mix of dust, freshly printed paper, and brewing coffee.  It just gets your juices going.  Then once you pick out that book that you have no idea why you are buying, it...

Go Green!!
No, I am not promoting recycling of aluminum, paper and other various products. Although, you should do that too.  No, I am suggesting that we: Renew, Go “Green,” Recycle Past Friendships. How many times do we just fall out of touch with people that we were once really close to?  You get to the point where you think, “Well, they aren’t making the effort either.”  You...

I have really got to make a list of all the amazing things that I want to do before I die.  Like an extreme bucket list that will keep growing every time I get an idea, but it can’t be just on a piece of paper because I will lose that and I am horrible at following through with a journal (which of course is one of those things that I want to do - keep a journal). What amazing things are out...

Eleven Days....
I am very ready for this eight weeks of classes to be over.  I have eleven days left.  In that time I also have 2 Research Papers, 1 Excavation Report, 1 Quiz, 2 Final Exams and 3 Essays due.  So, to say the least I am not looking forward to my life right now.  I want to have some amazing writing muse come into my head and have words magically appear on my page with just the right amount of...

I went on a reading binge this summer and read many of the fun books I have been putting off and ran across some that I never thought I would like or read that I did like and did read.  So, I thought I would give you the list break down.  Mind you not all of them I am proud to say that I have read, but nonetheless it is what it is. Read Since July: By J. K. Rowling: The Whole Harry Potter...

Growing Up...
To whoever reads this, which I am sure is no one: I feel like I am still trying to figure out what to do with my life.  I know I am good at a lot of different things and many things just make my heart beat faster, but which of those do I want to do for the rest of my life.  There are all these people out there that just know what they will be when they grow up.  They shoot for it, achieve it,...

True Friends
A true friendship is much like a covenant between two people that is unbreakable.  Close friendships breeds accountability and I believe that accountability brings about excellence.  My close friends know me and are not afraid to call me out on the things I do wrong.  This makes me accountable for all my actions, whether I want to be or not sometimes, and in turn it makes me a better person.  They...

The Physical Side of Books →
jingc: Most of us have become so used to reading on screen by now that we’ve probably become brainwashed a little. Compared with your computer screen the Kindle actually looks a little more like real ink on real paper. Essentially the device presents you with a tradeoff. You endure sensory deprivation — sacrificing the pleasure of spreading the newspaper out on the kitchen table, forgoing the...
