So i'll resist the need to start every post with "Yes i am alive." Something about the summer makes inside computer typing or this xanga thing less attractive. Maybe it's just me lately. Needless to say things are moving along in Ohio. Quina and i are moving into our place in Springfield (yes in springfield) and i'm about ready to be done with the concrete thing. 

     I'm excited about the coming year with One80. I'm praying that God will do some significant things this year. It always strikes me as interesting that we as people measure significance in far different terms than the Bible and Jesus present. So when praying for significant things to take place i'm really not sure what we're going to get.  Regardless the whole thing will be a growing time for me. I appreciate the people at One80 who have been very encouraging, and kind enough to put up with my growing and crazy ideas.

     School again in the fall only this time online. It's getting close to the end and i'm glad to see the finish line or at least it looks like the finish line. I remember one time when some friends and i were hiking down a mountain from a 12 hour hike and we kept seeing things like building through the trees... we thought the end was just up ahead... yeah after 2 miles of buildings that didn't exist we just gave up on the fact that the end was close. This school thing should prove to be different i hope.

Thats about the jist of it. I could write more about some random things that happened: being kissed by a guy in a Bp, store manicans with nipples sanded off, etc. But perhaps another time.
