I haven't wanted to write for a long time. I always read peoples sites though, probable everyday or so. Anyways, things are good. I've been working a lot. It's funny, i started playing ping pong a lot, at the gym. I remember when cory and I got really into it; lots of fun. I traded in my mazda and got a new car; a lot more fun. Things with emi are great, my family is doing really good. Mike just graduated from the academy; I'm really excited for him and sara. Emi really wants us to visit clearwater this summer, whichc i woul dlove to do; but who knows if i will be able to with work.

I saw "thank you for smoking", good flick; favorite line..."Michael Jordan played ball, Charles Manson killed people, everyone has a talent." Terrible, but true.

I got an apartment. The joy of living on my own. All the little things, like being able to leave the bathroom door open when I shower. It's weird the littl ethings that you appreciate.

Today is the most important day of my life.

Man, life is a strange and beautiful journey.

It's been a long time since I have updated, I read on here all the time, just haven't felt like updating. Things are great; new job, family is close, wonderful girlfriend. I am working at Infiniti South Bay, in new car sales.. It was kind of a bold step for me to get the job, but Im really glad I took it. Its been a blast learning the business, and meeting all the people Ive got to meet. And its nice to not have to worry about money for the first time in my life, great to be able to help friends reach some of their dreams. So much has been given to me in life, its a blessing to be in a position to give back. Mike and Sara staying in Victorville (an hour and half away, where we grew up.), and I am still staying with my brother Matt for the time. I have the most wonderful girlfriend, so supportive and encouraging. It will be 4 months soon, time has flown. OHHH...I got a chamelion, coolest pet ever, matt got one too, they live in a cage in our living room. They're rad, they zap their tongues out like 4 inches to get crickets, i never get tired of watching that. yeah, so thats life right now...grand as can be.

Been tearing through books again. An intentional life is a beautiful thing. Was hold of things there for a while, let the laziness become normal. Well, glad to say that I'm done with that. Realized a long time ago that I didn't want to be working for Sam's Club, yet stayed for some strange reason. I had all my interviews for the dispatch job, nailed them, and then got placed on a wait list. Was rather bummed about it; and then I remembered that I prayed for God to close the doors that I didn't need to walk through. The next day I met a gentleman at my work who works for Infiniti. I decided to go ask him for a job; I start in a few weeks.

my life is a tree that will continue to grow.
