blogging...the new busted diet

there is a common theme in blogging that i am beginning to pick up on...many posts (including my own)  begin with a statements such as:

its been a long time since i have blogged

i apologize for the length between posts

wow i have been so busy i haven't had two minutes to blog

i am sorry that i have not posted in a while

i want to know who made us feel guilty for not blogging (i think somehow the government might be involved)...why is it wrong for us to go so long between posts...the guilt we feel is comparable to the guilt you feel when you are on a diet and cheat it by going to the local china buffet place and eat until you hurt...

so i am calling all the guilt-filled bloggers of the world to unite and embrace our sporadical blogging nature...and this shall be our creed:

i believe in myself....i believe blogging is fun but does not define me....i believe in blogging but will not feel guilty for waiting 3 months between posts...but mostly i believe in myself...and god...and jesus...and the holy spirit...and the bible...and johnson bible college...and that the steelers are going to win the superbowl this year...and that we never landed on the moon...and um oh yeah i believe blogging shouldn't make us feel guilty...amen...i mean thank you...i mean the end...

the dog days of summer

the dog days of summer...

i don't know what that expression means...but i've heard it...and for the sake of this post...it means we are getting ourselves a dog this summer...

skates (which is what i am calling my wife these days) and i decided to get a dog a while ago and after a long process of deciding on personality traits, sheddiness (a word i think i just made up) size and all the other things you look for in a dog, we have agreed to get a puggle...(pug/beagle)

so if all goes according to plan we will be bringing molly pugglestone to 555 West 7th street tomorrow night...

i will post pictures when i we get her...

as i said in my last post we had to rule out the lab...we needed something smaller due to the size of our house...sad day...but there is

july has  been a long month...mission trip...followed by two weeks of church camp....folllowed by a ciy conference...

it was wonderful to see scott and sarah married on saturday...congrats to them...

finally i believe the lab is out of the equation....single tear....we are looking at a smaller dog to accommodate our small house...

finally as sam elliot once said to the dude...sometimes you eat the bar...and sometimes the bar eats you...

keeping on abiding
