So im heading to Boone tomorrow. I will have no phone. Which could be pretty awesome. I can wait to climb something.

So today was my first full day of eating vegan again. It went pretty well. I have been slowly been easing my way back into it. Its going to be tough, I know myself, I know how shoddy my past attempts were. There were a few hurdles I had to overcome though and I feel like Im on the right track with my decision. I wouldn't be feeling this guilt about it if it was something I didn't want to do.

Rick said Clitoris at Church tonight. I am going to every night of this new series. Its going to be amazing. I cant wait to see all of the amazing things that come out of this. Recording got moved back a few days, So we can go to Ken's wedding. Pre-production is happening this week. Maybe one track will sneak its way onto myspace.

I guess this is the point in my life where I need to find out who I am, what I want to do when I "grow up." For the life of me I wish there was a clear answer that just races to my head but there isn't. Occasionally, I would like to think that playing music will make me plenty of money, but for what were are doing right now its unlikely, and I am content with that. Up until a few years ago I was intent on going to school, finding some great job, and eventually settling down. Now the idea makes me sick. I do not even want to stick around anywhere long enough. I feel the intense need to make a contribution somehow, I would like it to be through traveling and playing. I want to be crammed in a van with five of my closest friends going everywhere. Showing kids what true christianity is, or at least how I live my life through Christ. We may end up broke, but you can always make money.

The hardest part in all of this is hearing the advice of those older than me. They are telling me to get a great job, buy a nice car, a house, and make a ton of money. At times it seems hard to choose, I start to think about my options and I hate how I have so many to choose from. My pessimism makes me constantly doubt my strength in all of this. But this would not be interesting and worth it if there was no doubt.

I feel so blessed, I have surrounded myself with a group of great people that let me keep my head in the clouds, who do not judge me. We all think alike and that is refreshing.

Man today was a good day. Me, Patrick and Lee rode bikes from Market Commons to 9th ave N.
We rode in this parking garage and we were heading down and I look back and see no one behind me so i look around.
The next thing I see is Patrick carrying his bike that has a flat back tire. Me and lee raced about 5 miles to get his truck and come pick up patrick. Pretty fun day, I liked being active. 10 miles riding....I cant wait to start riding to work....its about 4 there and back.

After that I went to Dennys with Kara, ate some chicken fingers, and a man showed me his crab.
