Since someone is being pushy about my xanga, I might as well update while I have a chance.  Good heavens, I'm still alive after last week.  That sucked tremendously.  However, the weekend rocked.  The formal was fun, and I got to brag to Kara how awesome 'Bama is while we walked around campus (yes, I said it all you Samford kids, 'Bama is indeed better).  In related news, yes I am no longer single; sorry ladies.  I'm dating a girl whom I've known my whole life pretty much, yet haven't known for the past 14 years.  Wrap your mind around that one for awhile.

The next two nights should be crazy tight.  Tonight, the Tide takes on the Irish of Notre Dame on the hardwood.  If I still have a voice or any energy come the final buzzer, then I have failed at life.  College basketball rocks.  Tomorrow, I see Kara and her family (first time in many many years), and go see Narnia.  Exciting times, exciting times.

Random rant time, heads up: I know full well not everyone is inclined to study theology, but come on, if you call yourself a Christian, know what it means and where we've been.  It's rather sad to watch "Christians" be outgunned by atheists, agnostics, etc.  We actually follow the religion; shouldn't we be the experts?  Sometimes I expect some megachurch somewhere to start an actual country club.  So many Americans have that mentality already, so why not.

Jan 2, 2006: Bama vs Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl.  It's go time.

PS to Abby: As funny as your suggestion for my "funeral" was, it does not win the contest.  It wasn't creative, it was just gruesome.
