Current Tunage: Frodus – Chiriacho Summit
“…and we washed our weapons in the sea” is definitely my favourite disc of things put together by any Shelby Cinca related work.

I’m trying hard to keep up with myself.

Not that I’ve been “busy”, more just changing gears.

I have one exam left now and then it’s work, work, work… wedding. Something like that. I always have difficulty switching into and out of “school mode” – it almost feels unnatural not to have anything scholastic to procrastinate over.

That being said, there’s lots to be done. I have a wedding website to polish to a glistening, moist shine which might reflect glories untold. The hard part, as always, is really getting started. Beyond that, there’s invitations to finish up and get out (and with them a guest list to finalize), a few meetings to solidify very important particulars (ie. food, photos, etc), and one more session of counselling in May. This final item brings with it a return to the books, as we’ve been too swamped to really dig into them for the better part of two months – me with finishing up school (papers galore) and Steph with being sick. We’ll get caught up, though. We “always” do.

It’s hard to talk about “always” when the timespan from which you make that joyous and farsighted proclamation amounts to less than a year…

Anywho, I’ve been nursing a few healthy obsessions lately. I call them “healthy” because they provoke me (not unlike a Gadfly) to movement and stability. The first is an obsession with Thrice’s new pair of EP’s – Air & Earth. The second is an obsession with Mark Driscoll’s series on the book of Ruth. The final is an obsession with driving to Pickerjax – a simple, one hour trip which always brings a sunshiney feast-for-the-heart.

I’ve also been listening compulsively to Frodus for the last couple days.
