hi. greetings.

it’s saturday, the 22nd of january. 2007. obvious. i’m in arlington, texas right now, which if you know your baseball - is where the rangers play. too bad it’s not baseball season. but i’m sure dreaming at night of baseball season. we’ve been all around texas in the second half of january. houston, lufkin, texarkana, rockwall, arlington, and then later, abilene, longview, and cypress, tx. then, second week of february, i’ll be in indianapolis and chicago! super-stoked to go to those spots.

i’ve been on a reading spree lately, since christmas, you could say. i’ve read…

chuck palahniuk’s “haunted”

jd salinger’s “catcher in the rye”

david sedaris’ “me talk pretty one day”

benjamin kunkel’s “indecision”

kyle lake’s “understanding god’s will”

and i’m finishing up some others.  it’s been fun.  i’m a good book collector at times, not so much reader.  but, that was one of my 2007 resolutions.  sue me.

erick bieger’s been talking so much about this norwegian gal, kate havnevik, and i finally checked her out, and i, obviously LOVE her.  i wish i had’ve discovered her sooner.  but, if you are new to her, don’t delay like i did.  buy it!

here’s a couple places i’ll be in the future, and if our paths cross, let’s get up!

jan. 28th - houston, tx

feb. 4th - longview, tx

feb. 11th - boliver, mo

feb. 14th - indianapolis, in

feb. 16th - chicago, il

i’m out for now.  bout to go hang with the jeff capps.  something about free dinner and a high school FCA.  who knows.  i’m bored and need to get out of this depressing hotel ASAP.

blessings and peace
