Let's just say, I'm ready for change. I'm ready for familiar faces. I'm ready for late night conversations. I'm ready to shiver in the cold of January. I'm ready for rain. I'm ready for family. I'm ready for friendship reacquaintances. I'm ready for home. | | |

It's Thanksgiving day 2008. I'm in Dallas, TX. I'm married. I'm very thankful for what God has done for me this year. Ok Ok, so I'm going to be making some green bean casserole in a few minutes and I'm going to be taking it to Buddy and Chelle's soon with my wife. Bryan, your not the only one who had an idea to post a previous Thanksgiving Day post, you just beat me to it.
This post is from Xanga on Wednesday, November 16, 2005.
i'm here at the church and the video is done. thanksgiving is tonight... well catalyst thanksgiving anyway, and i was just down in the kitchen and the smell of turkeys cooking brought back a memory. you guys ever have that happen? well i remembered every year spending the night before thanksgiving at my grandparents house. me and my grandpa would get up at like five and start cooking. i always did stuffing. we would cook and cook, and watch some of the parades on t.v. then family started showing up. my parents were usually first because we lived the closest. then my aunts and uncles would come. one year we actually cooked a turkey we raised but thats another story. my grandpa would say the prayer, and the usual thing on thanksgiving of going around and everyone saying what there thankful for. once we finished praying we ate (kids go first of course). there's nothing like your family all displaced over the house with the harmonic sounds of football as our family's background music of choice. once we were full enough to undo our pants buckles we would just relax. and time would come to wrap up all the leftovers, and head home. but even sometimes i would stay at my grandparents for some black friday shopping. thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays but it ends so quickly. the day after thanksgiving it's completetley forgotten, and christmas mania sets in. so i'm asking everyone just to take some time this year and remember all those great thanksgivings that were and are still yet to come with whomever they're with. i'm thankful for all of you guys, my great friends. i hope everyone has a great thanksgiving this year.

So
the last weekend in June, me and my buddy Dan went up to the Boston
area to stay with a friend who we haven't seen in quite a long time. He
lives in a town west of Boston and south of Cambridge, (which is where
Harvard University is located). If you have never been to the Boston
area, I highly recommend it. Boston is home to the start of the
American revolution and home to a very deep and rich history. Many in
America are not used to Northeastern culture. Mass transit dominates,
just like most Northern cities, and use of the subway(or the T as it's
called in Boston) is the norm. There is no need for a car when you can
either ride a bike or pay $2 to go anywhere in the 20 mile area. We
ventured to Back Bay, and downtown Boston a few times. There are many
attractions in the city itself. Such as the largest Apple store in
North America, great restaurants, and gorgeously dank record shops. By
far my favorite place though is Harvard Square in Cambridge. This small
area with it's tiny cafe's, street musicians, and tobacco shops is cast
in the beautiful shadow of the surrounding Harvard University, the
oldest University in the US. I have some pics of the area, none which
are mine, but are from flickr.

hard picking out dress clothes. So much to look for and match up. I'm
more excited about the semester ending and going home to work and get
hitched then looking for banquet clothes. Going home is weird. Time is
so so much slower back there. I'll try to make the most of it when i'm
back.

highly recommend seeing the new flick Baby Mama. It was very well
written and very well casted. O ya, it takes place entirely in
Philadelphia, ya that's right. Pennsylvania. Home of of America.
And pretty much everything awesome. Anyway. Baby Mama. Soon I'll have
one. When I say soon I mean hopefully years from now she will be. I'm
getting married in 89 days. It's quite crazy. We have got so much
planning to do it's absolutely ridiculous. I'm so excited to be
married. Me and Ashley have been on this crazy adventure for almost 5
years now. It's quite amazing to see how God has brought us together
and intertwined our lives together to fulfill his will. I'm not saying
it wasn't hard at times. But our life together as one has yet to even
begin and I cannot wait for everything he has in store for us. Please
pray for us over the next few months as were finishing up this (what
seems like forever) chapter in our lives, and begin this great next
adventure of marriage. Thanks to everyone who's also been there for us.
You guys mean so much to us. I pray that God blesses you with someone
incredible and so good looking (had to throw that in there) as he has
me. | | |
