  • WEEK 44 UPDATES

    -So I FIINAALLYY watched “Transformers” the other morning around 2am. All I have to say is, “WHAT A WASTE OF TIME!!!” >:-0

    -Funny conversation: (discussing finances, and specifically insurance at this point) “Hey man, maybe I should just get married!?? Isn’t Insurance cheaper when you’re married?” As Brian’s eyes got larger than the waffle that sat before, “No…NOTHING IS CHEAPER WHEN YOU’RE MARRIED!!!”

    -“Get’cha Head in the Game” from the Disney film High School Musical…that’s my least favorite song; I can’t STAND IT!!! On another note, I was sitting at work doing Finances when that song came on and I wound up putting it on repeat :-0 I don’t know if I like it now, or if it’s just my new “Finance-song”(???)

    -I woke up the other morning at 5:30am to get ready and head to breakfast with The Reverend. I was almost late because I spent around 20-minutes DESTROYING my room to find my wallet. I had it 5-hours earlier when I was heading to bed and it was NO WHERE to be found...I was TICKED! Finally I was just going to leave the house, “Well, I hope Brian has extra funds to pay for me and that I don’t get pulled over!!” As I was heading out I grabbed my bookbag (yes, the one that I take with me EVERYWHERE; yes all you HUGgers, the one I took with me everywhere when in Greece and when ‘traveling the world’) and swung it around my back…when all of the sudden I felt something. I reached in my back pocket, when lo-and-behold there was my wallet all along! (*Yeah, that’s what I said!!*)

    -My computer almost blew up the other day :-0 I think my power-supply died, which killed the fans, which in-turn made my computer get so hot it almost set my leg-hair(s) ON FIRE!!! (Though I have always wanted to shave my legs…I hear they look bigger if you do!)

    -I TOTALLY thought “Transformers” was stinkin’ AWESOME!! I just wanted to see if I could get a rouse out of y’all
    -Driving to work that next afternoon there was a BIG, black pickup truck behind me and before I knew it I was wondering, “Hmmm…I wonder if that’s a GOOD or BAD Transformer behind me??” I guess those things happen when you watch that kind of wicked-awesome movie at 2am and don’t get much sleep after that.

    -I'm going to miss Emma "trick-or-treating" tonight because no one would cover me at the gym :'(

    -Somebody thought it would be cool to bash-in my driverside window the other day and make me spend even MORE money that I wasn't planning on :-| I'm just glad we didn't witness it, because my brother-in-law was about to "bus-a-cap!" The good thing was a girl driving by noticed the glass and was sweet enough to stop and knock on the door to tell us. I like kind people

  • WEEK 42 UPDATES

    -So ever since Emma's been talking these past few months, it's SOOO much fun getting her to say things! Here are a few we have taught her: "How you doin'!?", "My bad"; "My B", "I did it" (this is good when she accomplishes something, and not so good when she spills something), "I poop!", "Sup?!" (and more and more....)

    -I worked on my schedule today once coaching starts. I'll head to the office around 6/7am each morning and work until 2pm. Then I'll leave and head to practice until about 5:30pm. THEENN I'll head to the gym and work until around 10:30pm. Get a coffee, drink it, drive home safely from the caffeine, walk downstairs, and go to sleep...Day 1.
    -On a good note, one of the other coaches that I thought was an older man (40's or so) is actually 23 and wrestled in college 4-years. I'm hoping he can help me get back in shape so come March we can hit-up some Open Tournaments (that is, if I don't get broken in the process :-|

    -It's winter; no more haircuts for Mr. Hoeck. Time to get "the shagg" back out...my ears get offely cold, REALLY fast!

    -"You Carried Me" by Building 429...good song! Singing songs like that (and plenty others out there) is what drives me to want to sing and perform. I would love to have the opportunity to perform songs that I wrote and have them touch the lives of people around the world...just as so many of them have touched me and those around me. Better get out a pad and pencil :-|

    -Breakfast with The Reverand EARLY Monday morning. It's been a few months since we've been able to do that (now that I work there, I can't really show up late for work because of a breakfast meeting...or can I???? :-0

    -I'm going to a Halloween party next weekend and am trying to come up with ideas for my friend and I. So far I've got 'each of you be one of David Beckam's legs and kick a soccer ball back & forth' or be 'a pair of dice'. NO JESSICA, I'M NOT DOING THE COCONUT THING AGAIN!! Maybe I could be a pirate and she could be my piratress(?). Actually, I think she's going to be 'Little Bo Peep', so what's that leave me....?

    -...everyday, through the rest of this year....

    Name My Diagnosis!!

    Last year Becca said, "OH MY GOSH, YOU'RE IN MY PSYCHOLOGY BOOK!!" She started reading the section to me and I was like, "OH MY GOODNESS...THAT'S SOOOOO ME!!" See if you can name the diagnosis, and see if you agree with it.

    People with ____-____ ____ ____ are so preoccupied with order, perfection, and control that they lose all flexibility, openness, and efficiency. Their concern for doing everything "right" impairs their productivity, and in the case of Wayne: [INSERT PAGE-&-A-HALF STORY OF A GUY NAMED WAYNE]
    In Wayne's concern with rules and order and doing things right, he has trouble seeing the larger picture. When faced with a task, he and others who have ____-____ ____ ____ may become so focused on organization and details that they fail to grasp the point of the activity. As a result, their work is often behind schedule (some seem unable to finish any job), and they may neglect leisure activities and friendships.
    People with this ____ ____ set unreasonably high standards for themselves and others. They can never be satisfied with their performance, but they refuse to seek help or to work with a team, convinced that others are too careless or incompetent to do the job right. Because they are so afraid of making mistakes, they may be reluctant to make decisions.
    These individuals also tend to be rigid and stubborn, particularly in their morals, ethics, and values. They live by a strict personal code and use it as a yardstick for measuring others. They may have trouble expressing much affection, and their relationships are often stiff and superficial. In addiction, they are rarely generous with their time or money. Some cannot even throw away objects that are worn out or useless.

    **Obviously a few of these things don't describe me, but I do have a lot of these tendencies

    WEEK 40 UPDATES

    -I miss traveling the world :'(

    -Harford County needs a Sonic

    -It's been a beautiful week. I took a 15-minute break yesterday, went outside, and relaxed on the picnic table.

    -I'm getting pretty tired from all these full/long days. It's an odd feeling; being wide awake, but at the same time just physically drained. I pulled up to the house the other night after a long day and fell asleep in the car before I ever made it out. I woke up to Dad knocking on the window, "Hey, what are you doing...are you drunk?!" he said, with a look of mischief. "Of course; whenever I'm in the mood to get wasted, I grab a bottle and head to my car to pass-out"

    -I got the ladies in the office cracking up today when I was doing my voice impersonation of Rocky Balboa. "You know how everyone things you're a girl on the phone...maybe you should use HIS voice when you answer it from now on!" they chuckled. I'll have to try that out.

    -I think I may know what (one of) my Spiritual Gift is :) A friend explained it to me, and I pray she's right...for it's one I am glad to have.

    -Along with the long days of work and other activities, I had a good "God-moment" yesterday (if that's what you want to call it). On my way to work I was asking Him to help me remember to 'be still', because I'm forgetting to do that with my fairly new busy schedule. Not long after arriving at work we had our morning devotional. Brenda read Psalm 46 - a Psalm I enjoy - which has verse 10, "Be still, and know that I am God...." A little while later "Be Still And Know That He Is God" came on the radio, a song I haven't heard in quite some time :)

    Here are some comforting reminders:

    Psalm 46: 1, 10
    v1 - "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble"
    v10 - "Be still, and know that I am God...."

    Jeremiah 31:25
    "I'll refresh tired bodies; I'll restore tired souls."

    Jeremiah 32:27
    "I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?"
