You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory.
Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.

Peer Pressure
Okay. So I'm not to fond of these things, but I feel that out of loyalty to friendship (and fear of backlash from the Bluebirds) I submit to you the following:
What were you doing 5 years ago?
1. Looking to buy our first home.
2. Working as a Missions Pastor/Facilites Director/Technical Director (computers and sound) and also a Student Pastor.
3. Building Mach Games Ramps at 3:00AM and still editing all night videos.
4. Buying our first house on Sandybrook.
5. Spending way to many hours away from my wife.
What are 5 things on your to-do list today (not in any particular order)?
1. Rehearsal @ 7pm
2. Brown Bag staff lunch at 11:30pm
3. Write a short script for this weekend's services
4. Email about 10 students
5. Locate a certiain DVD and make arrangements to pick it up to use it this weekend.
What are 5 snacks you enjoy?
1. Diet Dr. Pepper - it's great and reminds me of Sugar Free Dr. Pepper that I drank as a kid at the bowling alley, Lufkin Lanes.

haha! Thanks for doing this!
Hey, my faves are choclate chip cookies and chicken in a biskits, too.
I'm glad you admited to knowing your way is the only way. I think last week was the first time I told you "Surely there can't be one way to do something; God is bigger and much more creative than that"....and it only took me 25 years to think of it. (I know I'm 27, but I didn't start talking 'til I was 2)
Oh, and thanks for moving us to Maryland when you become a billionare. I'm sure that is the only way that could happen unless of course, we become billionares first.
Right after you move me to Maryland, I can be your first job placement and you can let me run your orphanages. Mom
