One thing I really like about UNC

is that it is within a 30 minute drive to the Summit Church in Durham. This church is awesome and I would just like to share that their website is www.summitchurch.cc and that they have sermon downloads online at http://www.summitchurch.cc/templates/cussummitchurch2/details.asp?id=29456&PID=243843&Style=

Ok, that's all.

Someday....

I'll leave this room.
I'll remember to look up from the sidewalk.
I'll enjoy waking up at 8am.
I'll understand.
I'll dance and run like no one's watching.
I'll be myself again.

Redemption, By George Herbert

Having been tenant long to a rich Lord,
Not thriving, I resolved to be bold,
And make a suit unto him to afford
A new small-rented lease and cancel the old.
In heaven at his manor I him sought.
They told me there that he was lately gone
About some land which he had dearly bought
Long since on earth, to take possession.
I straight returned, and knowing his great birth,
Sought him accordingly in great resort,
In cities, theaters, gardens, parks, and courts.
At length I heard a ragged noise and mirth
Of thieves and murderers; there I him espied,
Who straight, You suit is granted, said, and died.

I'd like to introduce you to...

the man in my life.

Selah: Part the Waters, Lord

When I think I'm going under, part the waters, Lord
When I feel the waves around me, calm the sea
When I cry for help, oh, hear me
Lord and hold out Your hand
Touch my life
Still the raging storm in me

I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford

I need Thee, O I need Thee
Every hour I need Thee
O bless me now, my Savior
I come to Thee

I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain
Come quickly and abide, or life is vain

the desire to control is an interesting phenomenon. i have become fully aware that i currently possess control over virtually nothing in my life. why is the power of choice so important? maybe this life is all a big hoax controlled by transcranial magnetic stimulation.

on the upside, Ace is eating now--gobbling actually. it seems he is a picky eater. just had to find what he liked. dried bloodworms.

Just keep swimming....

This is Ace. He is still not eating, but he is still alive. Probably crazy by now. He's started to dive-bomb the blue rocks occassionally. Maybe he's too close to the microwave.

Say a little prayer for Ace.
