Shine On.....



Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Pretty Good Weekend

Saturday--Hung out with some friends and went to eat at Fire Side Pies and a limeaid @ Braums
Sunday--Went to Church (good sermon, very funny) and hung out by the pool all day. I also watched a bit of the Indy 500, was sad to see Danica knocked out in the pits.
Monday--Just plan to hang out w/ Andrea and maybe go and eat lunch somewhere. Just an out and about day.

Random Thoughts

-Gas Prices Stink (Bring on some other kind of fuel)
-There are so many good places to eat here in Dallas
-Learned about the Golden Ratio this weekend from a friend. Pretty cool.
-I am hungry for some wings or Italian

Looking Forward to Evening...

Man what a good day. Had a nice day at work and came home to dinner then swam in the pool with Wrigley and hung out w/ my wife. I had been looking forward to this kinda of evening all day long.

Side note: Pray for George!

Whoa!!

Officially over a month since I have last written. Been busy w/ work and trying to juggle everything else in my life. I have been helping a couple friends go through some hard times in their life, but it seems that they are going to be coming out of it alright.

Texas is still going good. Work is going good and we have found a house to build so that is cool. After visiting some churches we seem to have found a church that we like. It is a great church, different for me as it is a "hip" and "young" church and I am used to the "traditional" church but change is good and it seems the Lord has led me to this church.

Here is my current "Moment":

Current Reading: "The 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader" John Maxwell
Current Music: Chevelle: Point #1
Mood: Relaxed, almost refreshed
Sounds: My dog barking
Smells: Sunscreen
Temperature: 85 degrees sunny
Thoughts: Almost back....
