A quick update: Stayed home Friday night and learned songs for the show Monday night. (9:00 pm, Common Grounds, William Carey College, Hattiesburg, MS. Be there.) Went to Ashley's Saturday where we went to PRCC's homecoming and left after halftime. Rented "Gosford Park", fell asleep shortly after starting it, woke up after it was over. Sunday I woke up and drove to Ashley's house to go to church. After church Ashley slept while I watched the Saints rape the Washington Redskins. Steve Spurrier sucks. Visited Ashley at Sonic on my way back up here. Practiced songs with Kyle and Heath. We freakin' rock. And that's it. Sorry for the lack of details, be glad you got this much. My shoulder hurts. It's like waiting for George to jump the duck. Ash |

I just drew a cool picture of Silent Bob for my art class. We were supposed to have a picture of like a family member or someone we loved or something like that, and I forgot about it. When I got in class Tuesday Dr. Diket told us to get a picture out of a magazine if we didn't already have one. So I came to my room and remembered that I had a picture of Ashley. But I found a picture of Quiet Robert, and opted to draw him over my lovely girlfriend. I think it turned out pretty good. As we speak (or as I type), I think Ashley's on her way up here. I don't know what we're gonna do, cause we pretty much did everything there was to do in Hattiesburg when she came up here Tuesday. But I'm sure it'll be fun, regardless. If you haven't already been, I highly recommend going to www.x-entertainment.com. It's a great site that I've been going to for years. It's hilarious, and there's an archive of past articles that should provide for hours and hours of laughter. Whiplash: "Every time you see an egg yolk, an angel gets his wings." Dr. Zaius: Really? I just thought it meant a chicken had an abortion. Ash |

I think I smoked the Ancient Near East test today. If I didn't smoke it, then I came pretty close. I hope. Today pretty much sucked. Pretty much nothing worth mentioning except for Gunther the Jewish Grasshopper in creative writing. Don't ask. I have a paper due Wednesday in ANE on Shishak. If things go as projected, I will be almost finished with it by the time I have class tomorrow. However, something tells me that things aren't going to go as planned. I just know I'm gonna get distracted. Here's a Coldplay song that I like. ************* "Green Eyes" Honey you are a rock Upon which I stand And I come here to talk I hope you understand The green eyes Yeah the spotlight Shines upon you And how could Anybody Deny you I came here with a load And it feels so much lighter Now I met you Honey you should know That I could never go on Without you Green eyes Honey you are the sea Upon which I float And I came here to talk I think you should know That green eyes You're the one that I wanted to find And anyone who tried to deny you, Must be out of their mind Because I came here with a load And it feels so much lighter since I met you And honey you should know, That I could never go on Without you Green eyes, green eyes Honey you are a rock Upon which I stand. ************* I'm kinda hungry so I'm gonna find something to munch on while I play guitar. Peace out. Big guys make eggs. Ash |

Okay. This was a good weekend, though it did have its annoyances. Friday night I was supposed to play music with a band that I've played with before. However, I never got in touch with anybody to find out when I was supposed to play. So instead, I went to Jay's house and played his new Parker guitar. I like it. Then we played some NCAA. I can't escape that game. Saturday morning I woke up and was ready to go to Ashley's house only to find out I had no way of getting there. My car had been in the shop all week, which caused me to drive The Tank (my grandparents' Crown Vic) to school. I planned on driving it to Ashley's Saturday morning but my grandparents were gone in it. So I had to wait for them to get back so I could have a mode of transportation. When they got back they informed me that I had to go to Diamondhead to pick up my car. I was good and annoyed by the time I got to Ashley's house 2 hours later than I had planned. Anyway, we watched about half of Mallrats. I remember we stopped at the part where Shannon was talking about screwing in a very uncomfortable place. (What, like the back of a Volkswagen?) I was informed earlier in the day that we were meeting Willie in Picayune to see Red Dragon. It's a pretty good flick, even if it is a rehash of The Silence of the Lambs. It's a very good rehash, as opposed to that terrible movie that called itself a sequel to the greatest movie in the history of movies, The Crow. But I digress. After the movie we went to Waffle House where I enjoyed a BL. I don't like tomatoes. This morning I woke up at around 10:40 or so. I opted to skip church and ate a biscuit and drank coffee as I watched ESPNews and Even Stevens. I also had some clothes to wash, which led to today's aggravation. It was way later when I went to Ashley's than I wanted it to be. But that's okay, because today was very good, except for the fact that I lost the freakin' Citrus Bowl in my NCAA season. *sigh* Blasted Gophers. Seeing as how Ashley watched Mallrats and Chasing Amy at my request, I thought it only fair that I watch Moulin Rouge at hers. I surprisingly enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I still think it's weird, though. After the movie we hung out until I decided it would be a good time for me to head back up here to H'burg. I followed her to her dorm so I could help her unload her stuff, then we had our usual 20 minute goodbye and somehow managed to make it last more than an hour. After that I came up here and lost the aforementioned Citrus Bowl. Now I should be studying for my Ancient Near East test that I have in the morning, but I'm updating this instead. Since I'm kinda sleepy now, I suppose I'll study so I can go to bed before at least 4. You should see the cleavage, it's great! Ash |

I'm updating. Ain't that impressive? Hmm. Let's see. Since my last update I have seen Ashley THREE days in a row!! Wow. And today makes two months that we've been together. Tuesday she rode up here and we ate at TheRestaurantFormerlyKnownAsBailey's. Their hot dogs are good. And the chicken strips are still the same, which is a good thing. We then went to Wal-Mart where she got the Moulin Rouge soundtrack. Then we went to the park and hung out. Wednesday I went home to go to church and to see Ashley. We hung out at my house then went to church. We came back to my house and hung out some more. Hurricane Lili made landfall some time while I was still sleeping. I woke up to hard rain and wind at 11:00 today, which is the latest I've slept in a really long time. I ate some biscuits and syrup then took a nap. I woke up and decided that I would go back to school. So at around 3:30 or so I left. I called Ashley to discover that she was on her way back to school as well so we met at the park and hung out for a few hours. Oh. Did you know that there is no parking in the city of Poplarville, not even at the park? Yeah. A cop told us that. He made us leave. So I came back up here. I played one of my NCAA games and won. Daniel's been wating for the past hour or so for me to play agianst him. I'm doomed. He cheats. Now I'm sitting here talking to Ashley online and on the phone while I'm watching Chasing Amy. Oh, yeah. And I'm laughing at the blowjob comment in her journal. I'm hungry. Sometimes, not often, but sometimes, I like the idea of a chick with a horse. Ash |

I suppose it's about time for an update. I finally got to spend time with Ashley this weekend. Five days apart sucks. I know it doesn't seem like much, but when you're used to only about 2 or 3 days apart, 5 is a long time. But I think this weekend more than made up for the time apart. The Saints lost, the Dolphins lost, the Bulldogs lost, and Jeff Gordon won the race yesterday. This wasn't a good weekend for sports. But I did get a bunch of comic books yesterday. And I ordered me and Ashley some tickets for the Tool concert. I should be studying for my Spanish test now. But I'm not. Actually, I think I'm going to do that now. Or I might eat. Who knows? Who cares? Not me. I just wanna go to sleep and play guitar. Not necessarily in that order. Oh, and I've heard that Lily may actually threaten us. If I have to go another five days without seeing Ashley I'm going to be quite irate. Blah. Breathing in and out and keeping my teeth sharp Waiting for something horrible to happen again Ash |

Stupid Isidore ruined all my plans for the week. But that's okay, because the alternative was very, very cool. Not much at all has happened since my last update. I didn't have class today and still woke up at 8:30 this morning. It sucked. I guess my body is used to waking up early, regardless of the fact that I went to sleep at 3 this morning. Oh, well. I'll survive I suppose. Quizzes I stole from Willie. ................... Quiz of Doooooooom! brought to you by Quizilla What Christopher Walken Character are you? brought to you by Quizilla I need more cowbell. Ash |

Ah, yes! I just bore witness to one of the greatest things in the history of the world. Okay. There's this chick that's from Kyle's area of Florida whom one of his friend's friends knows. He told Kyle that she is like a champion yo yoer. For the past few weeks, we've been dying to put a yo yo in the girl's hands and see what happens. Today, the dream was at long last realized. Kyle brought a yo yo to lunch and presented it to her. She did some tricks that would put the Smothers Brothers to shame. And she did it with Kyle's crappy yo yo. She said she would bring hers, which is obviously gonna be a world championship caliber yo yo. I can't wait. Life truly is good. Ash |

It sure does like to rain for Friday night football games. Hancock's had one game where it didn't rain. Despite the rain, Hancock beat St. Martin, whom I think hasn't won very many games in their day. But anyway, yesterday I went to Ashley's house. I just had an epiphany. Well, maybe not an epiphany, but certainly a sudden realization. If not for Ashley, I would have no life whatsoever. Except guitar and video games. But Ashley makes my life cool. Cool to me, at least. Today I went to church with Ashley then we ate some really good po-boys. Then we hung out and tried to take a nap, but I couldn't get to sleep (the Saints were playing). Speaking of which, they won today. I'm gonna change my guitar strings now. I leave you with a selection from American Gods. ...... He croaked, "Hello, Laura." She looked up at him with dead eyes, and she smiled. "How did you find me?" he asked. She was silent, for a while, in the moonlight. Then she said, "You are the nearest thing I have to life. You are the only thing I have left, the only thing that isn't bleak and flat and gray. I could be blindfolded and dropped into the deepest ocean and I would know where to find you. I could be buried a hundred miles underground and I would know where you are." |

Will You Be There (Falling Down) by Skillet As I fall to sleep, Will you comfort me? When my heart is weak, Will you rescue me? Will you be there as I grow cold? Will you be there when I'm falling down? Will you be there? When I'm in retreat, Can I run to you? Will pain release At your mercy seat? Are you saying yes? I gotta believe it. Are you saying yeah? When your love comes down I can rest my eyes. Feel your grace and power flood into my life. As my brokenness and your strength collide. When your love comes down, falling down. |

Not much at all has happened since my last update that dealt with what's actually going on. I've seen Ashley a couple times, which is always very good. Tonight I'm riding with Willie to see the Pearl River game. Ah, football. And not only do I get to see people hit each other, I think Ashley's gonna be there, too. It's like a two-for-one deal. Take the Which Elvis Are You? quiz, made by Until next time, I remain Ash |

Isn't it weird how one person can be such an influence on you? How one person can completely change the way you think? I'm reminded of such a person. I was in 8th grade when I met Bobby Reviere. Up until that point I was a "good little boy." He poisoned my mind. I say he did it, but I let him. I think I wanted him to. That's a time that I try not to think about. If I said a sentence and didn't drop the f-bomb at least twice, I was doing good. I stopped caring about school. Most importantly, I stopped caring about God. That was a dark time in my life. Isn't it weird how one person can actually be a good influence? The next year, my freshman year, the complete opposite happened. My church had been without a pastor for a couple years. That's when Bro. Kevin Clifton came. I saw something about him that I wanted. There was a fire burning within him that couldn't be extinguished. By his influence, I turned things around. I actually attempted to make good grades in school. And I actually made God a consideration in the decisions I made. Life was good again. Isn't it weird how one person can make your day? I'm not trying to sound cheesy here, but sometimes life can be kinda cheesy. Ashley is one of those people. I can be having a bad day, then talk to her and everything is turned around. Just seeing her can brighten the darkest of days. I love that girl. Isn't it weird how one person can totally put a damper on a good day? There are some people who are just negative all the time. Negativity breeds negativity. So you have a grudge against the whole world, don't take it out on me. I'm quite happy with my life right now (aside from the fact that I have no idea what I'm going to do after graduation) and I don't want to have to worry about being mad at people. If I'm mad at someone it's going to carry over into my relationships with others, and I don't want that. Some people just need to lighten up. Isn't it weird how being away from someone can leave you with such an empty feeling... |

When The Rain Comes Lyrics by Mark Lee/Music by Third Day From the recording: Come Together, Track #10. When the rain comes it seems that everyone has gone away When the night falls you wonder if you shouldn't find someplace To run and hide / Escape the pain But hiding's such a lonely thing to do I can't stop the rain / From falling down on you again I can't stop the rain / But I will hold you 'til it goes away When the rain comes you blame it on the things that you have done When the storm fades you know that rain must fall on everyone Rest awhile / it'll be alright No one loves you like I do When the rain comes / I will hold you |

Another awesome weekend of hanging out with my girlfriend gone. These two days go by way too fast. When I'm supreme ruler of Europe, there will be one-day work weeks and six-day weekends. It's gonna rock. That way I can be with my Ashley more. Dangit. Saturday I went to her house and we watched a little college ball. Not as much as last week, though, cause there weren't any games I really wanted to see. And plus we were too busy enjoying each other's company to worry about football. Later on that evening we went to Picayune. One of her friend's church was having a luau type thing. It wasn't that interesting so we left. There was a band there, but they played one song to do a sound check and then they didn't play anything else while we were there. Prior to going to the luau, we went by True Color Tattoo where Ashley got an industrial piercing type thing. I think it looks really cool. Today the Saints beat the Packers, which was really freakin' cool. Most people from around these parts are big Brett Favre marks. Not me. I thought it was great that the Saints defense beat the crap out of him all game. Ashley came over at about 2:30, but couldn't stay long cause she had to be at work an hour early. Which sucked. I wasn't able to see the race today cause we couldn't pick it up, but according to NASCAR.com, Mark Martin is the new Winston Cup points leader. I hope he wins it so bad. I should be studying for my Ancient Near East test tomorrow, but I'm gonna go do some recruiting on NCAA. Later. This just in--A dead cat has been found stapled to the door of The First Church of Christ the Redeemer. Ash |

Last night's date was quite fun. We ate at Applebee's then went to the mall to catch a movie. There weren't any movies playing that we wanted to see so we mallratted around. Does that work as a verb? Anyway, after the mall we went to the park and hung out for a while. Ashley had to leave after that, and we had our typical 30 minute goodbye. I hate it when we have to leave each other. I could wax sentimental about how much I love her and hate being away from her, but she knows that and I'm sure none of y'all wanna read it, so I'll save you the details. But now Saturday is the next time I see her, so the weekend should hurry up and get here. Drawing class was actually fun today. People from the class modeled with linen draped over them. It was pretty cool. I started a new season on Madden 2003 today. However, because Daniel and Jerf have already played one season, I couldn't get my Browns again this year. But I did get the Falcons and I just beat the Rams in the first preseason game. I'm so totally doomed this season. I think me and Daniel are fixin' to go to Wendy's. Later. This looks like a job for Texan Texas Tex, the most Texan cowboy in all of Vermont. Ash |

I finally finished the stupid paper. Tomorrow night me and Ashley are actually gonna go on a real date. That's so cool. We're gonna go eat and to a movie. But I don't kiss on the first date, so no sugar tomorrow night. Darn. I'm sleepy. I stood there singing I was holding your arm, you were holding my trust like a child. Ash |
