No updates. I'm not going to even pretend. Nicole's coming out. Which means that me writing blog entries isn't going to happen. You're used to this by now.

Life and Times

So yesterday was my first Easter being away from any family. It was definetly a bit different. I had to do some things that I used to take for granted. And it was sad that I didn't get to be with family, but I still had a good easter.

The first part of Easter, as it should be, was going to church. After putting up a request to my friends on Zoji, I was given two choices for services to goto. I decided to go to the St. Andrews Lutheran Church. I found out about the church because my friend, Amanda, was playing french horn in the services. So I went to the 11:00 AM service and afterwards, Amanda and I had a nice brunch at the IHOP.

After getting back to the apartment, I decided to do what many people do on Easter Sunday afternoon. I napped. Heavily. It was fantastic. I got about two hours of sleep before the sounds of my roommates screaming woke me up. Apperently, I was missing one of the best games in NCAA Basketball tournament history. So I pulled myself out of the bed and watched the two overtime periods of the MSU vs. UK basketball game.

Once the game was done, Dan and I convinced H that he was coming with us to Thais's for dinner. After a lot of work, we got H off his rear and we headed to Belletown for Easter dinner.

Dinner was really good. Thais made halabut and all kinds of vegetables. There was bread and wine, and good friends, and it was great. It wasn't family, but it felt a bit like it. Which is good.

So Easter was good. I missed my family, but I was ok. I was able to spend it with people who are important to me, and that's what is really important.

Happy Easter to all! May the Lord bless you and keep you. And may his countenance shine upon you.

Life and Times

So working out has a lot of benefits. You look better. You’re healthier. And in theory you feel better. And most of the time you do. The only problem is that it also increases the level of testosterone in one’s blood stream. This is sometimes good. Sometimes bad. At the moment, I find it to be really crappy.

Let me explain. Before I started working out again. I generally always felt pretty good about life and everything associated with it. I would just kind of bound along and feel that everything was fine. Mind you my body was deteriorating, but at least mentally and emotionally, I was right as rain.

Then I started working out.

Now, I’m a bit of a basket case. I keep having really bad mood swings. I go from really happy or content, to being pissy or upset. My friend Mel says that taking Vitamins helps. I think I’ll actually try taking some. Seeing as how I have them in my apartment right now, it can’t hurt. My mom also says I should take them. So I’ll try taking them. Hopefully it’ll help.

But yeah, mood swings suck. I keep having them. I might go see a doctor if it keeps up. I need to work out. But I’m really tired of the swings. Really, really tired of them. I always feel so dumb afterwards. The thing is, I can’t seem to stop it. So I just feel bad. Especially since Nicole has to kind of deal with it. And I don’t like having that pressure on her. So yeah. Hopefully I can get this figured out.

Sigh…I got drunk last night. Which is kind of a bummer since I didn't want to. Like, I was actually trying not to. But after an apple martini and a rum and coke, I was done. Seriously.

Yeah, I had a good weekend. I ended up sleeping on the futons of friends both friday and saturday night. Now, I know what you're thinking. I didn't get drunk on friday. I didn't even get close. But still. Just had a good time. Word.

The weekend was a blur. Fast but good. And surprisingly restful. Seeing how much I was moving. *shrugs* Life is good.
