About Me


You have been marked on my profile map!
I love live music. Recently moved to Austin, so I can see more shows. I wish LifeChurch would start a campus here. Are you reading this, Kristin? Make it happen! Its crazy how God knows exactly whats going on in my life and is able to bring me messages to help me cope with whatever is going on, be it sad, happy, indifferent. I'm amazed at how much He has changed my life over the past 2 years, and allowed me to share my faith with others. "Live so the preacher won't have to lie at your funeral" -bumper stickerOh, and if you're in some random band that neither I nor anyone else has heard of, DONT SEND ME A FRIEND REQUEST! I'm not going to add you. Best of luck with your music, but it does nothing for me to have you in my list. And I'm positive that it does nothing for you to have me in your list. Thanks so much.

Barry....

I can only say that if Barry Bonds had acted during the past 20 years the way he acted last night after hitting that home run, he would be a HERO right now.  A HERO!Instead, he makes me sick, and...

The definition of 'Classy'

While going to lunch today, I stopped at a red light behind a guy in a black Chevy pickup.  But this was no ordinary black Chevy pickup.  Apparently, there was a really classy guy who owned ...
