My friend Zeke likes chick flicks. I'll be talking to him and mention that I'm going to watch one, and he'll jump right on topic - "Oh, you mean the one with Lindsey Lohan? That is so cute. You'll really like it." I laughed. He knows this stuff better than I do. And he loves shopping. And I hate shopping. I asked him once which chick flicks he liked, and he said a list, and one of them was Lord of the Rings. "Lord of the Rings?" I said, "I don't think of that as a chick flick." And he said something like: "Well it has Orlando Bloom in it." I don't want my friend Zeke to be so girly that he likes Mr. Bloom. Especially since moving to the South, I've been worried that my personality has so much steel in it. But you know, it's part genetic and part beaten into me by my circumstances. It's not just going to evaporate now that I think of it as something of a liability. I cannot believe that "too much moxy" was a phrase applied to me. It just goes to show that truth is stranger than fiction, because I've been mousy quiet for what seems like forever. This Sunday I saw a guy worshipping during the praise music. He is younger than me. It blows me away when I see this, because I will be in love with one person or another, and I mean hard-out-of-luck in love, usually with a person who doesn't pursue God, or make godly and righteous living a priority, and when I see this younger man, my feelings for the person I want suddenly look small, like glancing through the far end of a telescope; I mean they practically go away - And the reason is: If a person doesn't spend time connecting himself or herself with God, s/he has a languishing soul; a spirit that is in drought. I like to see a man transported in the fullness that can be found in worshiping the Lord. Of course, it's kind of private. Between him and God, I mean. Seeing it, I'm kind of an interloper, but it makes me happy.
mood: trippy What's up?: I had awsome peach pie yesterday with mounds of whipped topping.	(0) comments
