Somehow what I used to have written in this box got very little attention, as my attention was absorbed by other things, like watching television, procrastinating, worrying, regretting things, making mistakes, wondering what I was doing, wishing I could be different, and not knowing what else I would be. So now, I need to be interested only in accepting God's grace and living under it. He loves me as I am, both King of kings and Lover of my soul.
It's not life and death here. I take messages from anyone. But no guarantee I'll be your myspace friend. Jesus loves us all, and you, but I'm just not around here very much.

Waking Ned Divine is a movie every person should seek out. The Pianist. The Lord of the Rings series. Benny & Joon. Breakfast at Tiffany's. My Fair Lady. Sabrina. Roman Holiday. Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Amelie. Foreign films. Spiderman I and II. Yours, Mine, and Ours. Crash. Elizabethtown. And a really interesting documentary about the dangers of vinyl production appropriately titled "Blue Vinyl."
Lost, Battlestar Galactica, Gilmore Girls, Scrubs.
The Bible, Mere Christianity, Lewis' Space trilogy, esp. Perelandra, Till We Have Faces, The Screwtape Letters, The Giver, Don Quixote, The Chronicles of Narnia, Not Even a Hint, The Good Earth. This should really be a list of books I want to read, since I have hundreds and rarely do anything about it.
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost have no other real place to be mentioned and therefore fall here, though "hero" is an inappropriate word. Albert Einstein, C. S. Lewis, Mom, Dad, and those friends who are doing what I want to do when God makes it right.
