it’s too late. and no pain, no gain.
“his tentacles are already around her tight. i’d lose my life trying to pry her free. but i will stand watch.”
I finished Irresistible Revolution today. Very good book. It’s kinda scattered and filled with stories, so it’s easy to get lost in all the different things and ways of redefining christianity that he talks about. But still very inspiring. I want my lifestyle to be impacted by the book for real. I don’t wanna be just another guy who added this book to my “cool postmodern christan” cred repertiore.
Having said that, i don’t plan on dressing in loincloth (red sparkly aside–but that’s a different topic) and living on the streets. So i’m not sure where the balance is.
I decided I am getting rid of my Xbox once i beat Halo. It’s part of the new plan for 09.
“…when I became a man I put away childish things.”
It’s not new, really. I’m just re-upping it. I’m resisting the urge to wax poetic about it, as i sometimes do.
But I am making some changes for the good. I may post more goals/plans/resolutions later.

family holiday = movies you “end up” seeing.
Currently, I’m watching Wedding Singer (“best man!… BETTER man!”) and it has been a couple of days of movies that are just… “on.” so you end up seeing them, and possibly, enjoying them. I thought i would comment on a few.
For starters, Primal Fear. Wow. intense movie. Edward Norton is incredible. And a good story.
Then you have Click. I only caught the last third of it I think, but holy wow. movies like that make me want to start a family. and that’s something i don’t way much.
Also, American President. This is romantic movie, really; but the implications are horrendous. A president making major policy decisions based on the interests of the lobbyist he’s currently sleeping with? Wow.
Then today I got the chance to watch Close Encounters of the Third Kind. There are some great, great moments in that movie. It’s just classic.
still watching Wedding Singer.
“not PORNO tongue, church tongue.” ROFL
Also, I am on pace to finish Irresistible Revolution tonight.
PS I am considering accompanying my mom on a Walgreen’s run because I haven’t left the house (except to jog) since Sunday afternoon.
