The cool weather hits, and I return to blogging...

Not that anyone even noticed I was gone for three months, but I am (tentatively) back.

Bible study's started back up, so Weds is likely to become my blogging day once again. We just finished Mark (and had some spectacular weather effects for the "forgive them Father, they know not what they do" passage) after start Battlefield of the Mind next week. (Looking forward to that.)

My work schedule became more consistent the last few months, but unfortunately the consistency stole my Laura/Rush/Sean time with it. (How out of date I've become with political things lately is shameful, honestly.)

Also, family drama ensued. Yay.

Things while I was gone...



(Excuse the pic quality, my phone wasn't on the right settings for what I was photographing, lol. User error and all that.)


My mother, sister and I went the the Sean Hannity Freedom Alliance concert in Cincinnati a few months back. Aside from the fact that is was 100 degrees and 100% humidity, the whole day was AWESOME! (With an added bonus on good looking Marines in full dress uniform at the concert... Yum!) Hadn't seen Lee Greenwood in concert in many, many years... An Lord, does God Bless the USA still bring tears to my eyes!

Also, I want Indiana plates. (I don't necessarily want to move to Indiana, but their plates are fabulous. Why are all our plates ugly????)


Anyone offended by the word GOD on it? Because that would MAKE MY DAY! :)

My best friend of forever, Adam, also joined the Army (can't remember if I mentioned this before) and has now graduated both basic training and his next stage of training to become a Explosive Ordnance Disposal Specialist (makes perfect since for a guy who loved LEGOS, etc when we were pint-sized, yes?). For some reason, even though I can't even describe how proud I am of him, this career path will never make me sleep easier at night.

He goes from Alabama to Florida for more extensive training this week. Hopefully, I can either go down and visit him there in the next few months or maybe crash back in my old stomping ground with him/his family when he gets time off for Christmas. (Assuming he isn't called up any time between now and then...)

I keep telling him he's not allowed to go off and potentially get blown up without me getting to see him again, so we'll see what works out there. ;) ;)

Much as Jon Stewart can annoy me, the Hellary video was too good to pass up. Also, now that I know how to post videos on here, I'll probably be doing that a lot. Love it when tech stuff is made easy for HTML-retarded people such as myself!

    So you are back! For the record, I noticed.

    I'm off for now, but I'll look forward to stopping by and ACTUALLY SEEING NEW MATERIAL.

    Sorry about the shouting. Just got a little excited is all.

    Sadness... I miss Bible study. Battlefield of the Mind sounds like a good book to read. Man do I hate my job.

    Ooooh, I'll let you borrow it when we're done!

    ...That is, if you don't mind all the highlighting/"helpful" notes I'm adding to it, lol.

    South Carolina also has plates like that. IN GOD WE TRUST along the top ... THE TOP! ... A flag pole in the middle with the SC flag BELOW the AMERICAN flag! ... and the state name along the bottom.

    And so I add SOUTH CAROLINA to the list of states I should move to.

    Seriously, all the plates here suck. And, to top it all off, they are all UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGLY.

    My mom has to clostest thing to a pro-life plate we have, and all it says is "Choose adoption" because that's "polticially correct" or some such BS.

    Urgh.
