Of which they literally number in the tens.
I don't date much, in fact I'm not dating anyone right now. I don't believe in dating just for the heck of it, or because I'm lonely or whatever. No, Before i even consider someone for dating, i first try to be around them as much as possible in a group so i know something about them without all the pressure of one on oneness. I also ask other peoples opinions about that person to get a better idea of their character. Interspersed through all of this is prayer. Lots and lots of prayer. I also try writing things down verbatim. This helps me organize my thoughts and see what exactly I'm thinking. It also helps me clear my mind some.
I don't date very many girls, i put a lot of thought into dating before i actually ask someone out. My dilemma is this. If i ask someone out, its someone that i like and think is a really awesome person. If it works out, great. If not, i hate to make things awkward to be around that person. I mean i don't want to stop being friends with that person or make them feel uncomfortable around me. Still, it would be nice if i got a yes sometime instead of everyone telling me no.
Ive had a crazy week and weekend. My car broke down, so I've been riding my motorcycle. Then i had my PDA strapped down on the back of my motorcycle and it fell off. I will probably never find it again. Then i misplaced my GPS and cant find it. I'm losing things faster than i can replace them grrr. Just today i found out that my brother, who is gone for a few weeks, had put my phone number on his voicemail so when his renter called him, when got my phone number. This morning i get a call from someone i didn't know about their air conditioning going out. Thanks Stephen.
To all my tens of loyal fans, I will be leaving you in a few weeks, and then i will be back and then i will be leaving you again. ill keep you updated.

How the heck
Do i share my blog with others. Shouldn't there be a link somewhere that i can copy and paste?
A short story, though i cannot take credit for the story.
There was once an older lady that was making funeral plans, you know, just to be prepared. Well she was talking to her pastor, and said, " when I die, i want to be buried with a spoon in my hand." The pastor was perplexed. "A spoon?" he said. "Why a spoon?" She explained. "Every Wednesday night we would have a potluck dinner, and at the end of the dinner if they just came by and cleared the plates, you knew the dinner was over." "But" she said "if they told you to keep your spoons, you knew that there was desert coming." "The best was yet to come." This has become my philosophy in life. Save the best for last, because in reality, the best IS yet to come. This life is just a precursor to the life that comes after our time here on earth has come to an end. To remind myself, i do everything undesirable first, then move on to the fun stuff. Eating desert last, cleaning before playing, etc.

My chest hurts my thighs hurt, my arms hurt my feet hurt.
For some reason i have "how much is the doggy in the window?" stuck in my head. I heard it sung as a song somewhere and it pops in my head every once in awhile.
Bud light sucks.
Spider webs that get caught in your hair are annoying.
Sneezes are fun.
I should go to bed, but I'm not sleepy. Should i stay or should i go now?
So you are probably wondering how all of these seemingly disconnected and unrelated statements are connected. First of all, look at the fourth letter of the third word in each statement. Do you see it? If not, try this. Think of your favorite pet (past or present) and say their name at the end of each statement. Still don't get it? Congratulations, you're not crazy. Your initial intuition is correct; the statements are disconnected and unrelated.

Ummm...
Earlier tonight i was fretting and worrying over a girl from my past. I hadn't talked to her in several months at least, and out of the blue she texts me twice. One of the texts was asking if i would be at an event that a bunch of other friends would be at. Well i wasn't sure i wanted to talk to her. We had dated previously and had a bad breakup. Broken hearts, tears, the works. To be honest I'm not sure I'm completely over her. Or maybe i am over her but have lingering feelings of not wanting to be in a relationship because of it. Anyways, i talked to a friend and shared what i was thinking. Its a good thing too because my friend asked some simple but "cut to the quick" type of questions. Does this girl still like you? She didn't seem like it last i saw her. Is she a christian? Uhh sorta. Does she act like a christian? Umm no, I see where your going with this. I think i needed to hear that, and it made me think. If your interested in someone, look at their character. Don't look at how you feel around them.
This may or may not make sense to you. If it doesn't, i dont care. There is a lot of background information to the story that i left out. Its more for me recording a thought process to look back on down the road. However i do stress the last two lines. If you like someone, look at their character. Look at their morals. How do they align with yours? Don't trust feelings. Feelings change and will deceive.

Filler...
Filler:
A viscous substance to put in holes in wood to hide said hole. Used mainly by woodworkers.
A viscous substance to fill holes or voids in a wide range of materials including:
Wood, metal, plastic, ceramic, glass and Sheetrock. This list is not exhaustive.
Words formed into sentences to link one topic of conversation to the next. Or more simply put, Its what you say when there's nothing else to say. Which is exactly what this post is all about.

Question...
How do tou tell one girl that you like another girl when you know the first girl likes you like that and you are pretty good friends with both girls? The same thing could go for guys if you are persuaded that way.

Listen to your heart...
Relationships. Im talking about serious, more than just friends, im into you relationships. Marriage. I get people telling me to ask so and so out, or why dont i have a girlfriend or whatever all the time. It gets annoying. Why should i get married right now? For oneness ive heard from one person. For companionship, because you love the person. Arnt i one now? wasnt i born uncompanioned? Where will that person be when i die? Because i love that person? I really dont love anybody save for my family. Ok maybe some of my friends, but not like that. I could get married to have sex with someone. Hmmm that seems like a poor reason to marry someone. I dont believe in sex before marriage, and i dont believe in social dating. I only date someone if i see them as someone i could see myself marrying someday.

So i just finished watching Juno. And here is what i thought.
I wasn't over excited about the movie when it first started because it was dealing with unwed teen pregnancy. And in light of today's culture, i figured it would be a moral sellout. However it wasn't as bad as i anticipated. For one i like the way the dad responded, he may have been disappointed but he didn't get all angry (I'm not a big fan of movies depicting domestic strife). And he still cared and helped his daughter through her difficulties. To me, that's what a real family is all about, being there for you when things aren't the best.
I'm a bit disappointed in the adoptive parents getting a divorce. Though i know this is a fact of life for many people, i wish it wasn't so and it makes me sad to see it happen. The dad had a good point that you need to find someone that loves you for who you are. But what if who you are changes? Is it reasonable to expect someone to keep loving you if something happens to you? No its probably not reasonable. But then again love isn't really reasonable in the first place. What do i mean by love? In that last statement i mean still being the same way towards someone despite their daily ups and downs. How far can someone change before we don't have to love them anymore? Or perhaps I still love that person but it changes to a different kind of love.
This all may not make much sense, but my mind was mulling over these thoughts on my way back from my friends house.
