"Taking Ground"

Screaming 'til my throat bleeds but never making sound
I've sat here in this prison never rising from the ground
But I know He heard these muffled cries and brought me back to life
So now I owe my all to Him and give myself tonight

Well...

I'm not sure whether this past week has been eventful or just normal. Monday was our first prayer meeting at the Biggers' house. From what I heard it had some positive effects.

Tuesday I had to work and as always, it was just another day at work.

Wednesday we had Gameliel's Counsel at my house. But I had to leave early to take Krissy home so she wouldn't miss her "non-negotiable curfew" as she puts it.

Thursday I took her around town and we just went places. First we walked around the mall and realized that once you hit a certain age it's no longer a fun place. After that realization we went to El Maguey for dinner while it was pouring down rain. While there we accidentally fried her sim card in her phone while trying to password protect it. So that warranted a trip back to the mall to visit the cingular kiosk. Appearantly if you try to many times to lock out a phone you get locked out... permanently. It'll send a shock through the sim card making the phone useless for anything but emergency calls. After that she got a call from her mom saying they were gonna go shopping for her brother's birthday at Toys 'R' Us. Needless to say we go over there when we finish eating dinner. Well, we got there about an hour early. So what do you do in toys 'r' us for an hour on date night? That's right, you play with the toys and reminisce about your childhood. After we finished there we went to circuit city and she got her brother something for his birthday.

Friday, I had to work again. I know, Thursday sounded better, huh?

Saturday, I went over to Eric's house with Anthony and Allison and wtched a couple of movies and had some white castles... and by some I mean 15... plus some chicken rings... plus some soda... equals bad night's sleep.

Today I mowed the front part of the forest we call a lawn. I had to go over the right section about 6 times just to get it to cut right. Then later I have a couple of softball games if anyone wants to come watch. I play at rec' 'plex park in St. Peters. It's on the right on mexico rd. Ya can't miss it.

But as for now I thought I'd just update you all on how my week has been. Good? Bad? A little bit of both. So with that said, I'll see ya later Blogland!

S.M.C. (by Project 86)

Big business ain’t easy
I’m sure you’d agree
Especially when the product is eternity-
To stay one step ahead we must achieve
And turn this holy temple
Into a factory
Is there anywhere you can run
To hide from these thieves? -
Cause eternity’s on sale today for a fee

Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
To convert the masses into little servants
Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
Buying me into your home (soul)

Our sanctuary of this high-rise
Our steeples our billboards
Our slogans our converts
Oh don’t forget to buy this T-shirt
As you leave
And open up the offering box
And give until it hurts
Show me an open heart and we’ll steal it away
Cause eternity’s on up for sale for a small fee today
You Know

This altar is a stage
Our sponsor must be paid
And maybe even make the front page
