Interesting Questions, I Guess...

1. What was I doing ten years ago?

It was 1998. I was working at my home church which at the time wasn't a megalopolis like it is now. We would have been on our way right now to CIY in California. Debby and I had been married for a year and a half. Our church was getting ready to move to my home town. Yeah, things were crazy back then.

It's weird to think of how much has happened in ten years. Wow, is it weird. I've lived in three different states, four different ministries, our wonderful daughter was born. Crazy.


2. 5 things on my "to do" list:

1. Take my broken guitar into the guitar shop. It broke in April when someone knocked it over at church. Yeah, it was the new guitar I bought right before I left Ohio. The neck is broken.

2. Get ready for Noelle's second birthday party (her first was with family in Maryland)

3. Try to prepare myself for Sunday, since I will be seeing my stepfather for the first time since before Noelle was born. He has never met my daughter. We had a falling out.

4. Get ready for Sunday morning stuff.

5. Contact missions organizations about going to Cambodia next summer.


3. Snacks I enjoy:

I really like vanilla yogurt with granola on top.
Breakfast cereals


4. Five things I'd do if I were a billionaire:

Use most of it in an effort to stop human trafficking.
Buy a new car - not an expensive one, but new.
I don't know other than that - I'm pretty satisfied with what I have.


5. My 5 bad habits: (Only 5?)

Interrupting.
Chewing my nails.
Being neurotic sometimes about what people think of me.
Bad mouthing other drivers.
Procrastinating.


6. Places I've lived:

born in Aurora, CO
Parker, CO
Fullerton, CA
Tucson, AZ
Denver, CO
Dallas, TX
Surprise, AZ
Springboro, OH
and now Aurora, CO. Everything comes full circle.


7. Five jobs I've had:

I mowed lawns in high school. 20 bucks a lawn, 5 lawns a week, pretty sweet money.
I worked at Round Table Pizza my freshman year of college. Good pizza, bad job.
I worked at Dairy Queen in between my freshman and sophomore year of college. Great hours, great benefits (all the ice cream you can eat), bad job because it was by Fiddler's Green and so we got swamped after every concert.

And after that, I've had ministry positions.

i was reading through my old blogs and came across a comment you left back in april about a dream you had concerning you playing at a coffee house and only remembering a song from Once and nothing else - made me laugh. And thought you should know :-)

Yeah, I have strange strange dreams. Usually involve me forgetting songs for church.

I tried to stop biting my nails, but to no avail.

Sunday was a no-go. We all went, but he didn't show up. I got to talk to my stepsisters though, which was good. And they saw Noelle for the first time.
