The Life of the Nickness

my quick lunch meeting with Pastor Doug(our new young adult pastor) turned into a 2 hour lunch at Applebees. Ah. It was fun. I got to know him, he got to know me, and we spent alot of time talking about Mosaic and whatnot. Since I'm one of the leaders of Men's Core, it looks like theres going to be alot of work/changes in the near future. But luckily for me, I'll now have a 'support' system–but that won't be in place for another month. Yay for me though-he invited me to his house on Sunday(along with a bunch of other people, so i dont really feel that special about it) for a 'interested in being a part of the leadership team' meeting. I actually got alot of his 'speech' today. Quite impressive. I'm already praying about where God wants me to 'plug in' (so to speak)

In other news, my articles for Mo' Ink still are not complete. I plan on seriously sitting down tomorrow with a Bible and the internet and not leaving til both of them are done. My humor article is answering the question “Why do boys chase girls?” and my 'spiritual' article has to do with what it means to be called sons and daughters of God. Both are going to be recurring columns. Fun stuff.

And after watching the entire first season of Lois and Clark, I am def ready for some major writing!
Oh yes, one more thing to note: in searching the link to the season 1 dvd of Lois and Clark, a came across and amazing discovery: Season 5 of Smallville will be out on dvd September 12!

oh, and for you Sinfest fans out there, heres another comic to make ya happy. I dedicate this posting to Simon

for all my whining and complaining and frustration, i bought(and took home) my car last friday. God is Good. I need to learn to trust him more often.

I'm now sitting at home, working on mens core stuff.

Yay.

This whole week i'm off of work for vacation. Wanna go do something? Let me know.

Can anyone tell me why a car dealer stays open til 9pm, when the people in their corporate finance office goes home at 5? WTF is up with that? How the hell do you expect to make any money? Grrrrrrr!

ok…long story, short version: Saturn turned me down. I went to a chevy dealer and had my mom co-sign for an Avio. After wating for over 2 hours, they came back with a 'priliminary' approval, but someone has to physically look at my application, so I can't take the car home(like they told me I could)

Yeah, chances are because of scheduling(my moms and mine, as well as the stupid car guy who is trying to make us NOT come back til he's working) I prob won't get the car til F-ing NEXT Friday.

Yes, I'm pissed.

I'm gonna go now. I still have half a bottle of wine left. And damn I hope theres something funny on tv tonight.

I bought a car today.

Ok, so thats a lie. I've almost bought a car. I'll find out bright and early tomorrow morning if the bank has approved everything.

A red Saturn Ion. Oh, and I guess I should say it's brand new. As in, a 2006 with only 48 miles on it, and two of them were mine.
Anyone feel like giving me a ride to the dealership tomorrow?

I'm single again. While I don't feel like going into the details, I will say that even though it was (kinda) my decision, I'm still fairly sad about it.

I'm feeling kinda blue today, so my friend sent me a picture of this tee-shirt to cheer me up.

Finally, after a long break due to their father's death, the brothers Chaps have once again returned and have updated the Homestar Runner Website!

They've also started offering a new 'Cool Tapes' teeshirt, and have updated their store main page as well. Yay!

I don't feel motivated to post.

I haven't felt truely motivated in a while.

*sigh*

Which really sucks, cause I love writing in my LJ.
