Although I have not posted in some time, it seems I have no real excuse as to why. Then again, eh, what can you do? So life has been living, and time keeps on ticking, so basically all must be well. I really don't know why I'm posting as I have nothing to say, but since I tend to ramble anyway, I guess I'll continue. My job ends Friday the 9th, if the rumors are true. One of those he told her and she told me, but he told her not to tell but I'm opening my big mouth anyway because I like to feel like I'm back in high school, rumors. Anyway, I guess I'll ask the boss, then again he's the one that supposedly started the whole rumor, so maybe he'll whisper to me the answer and I can included in the whole cloak and dagger ordeal.
As you can see I'm about tired of this job. It's been fun and I've learned a lot, but when you look at it, I'm ready to move and I wish we could just go. Seriously why is God always making us wait on Him? But seriously, I'm ready to move.
Alright, okay, so I am trying to wait on God and stay faithful to the praying for His will, but it's hard and I'm weak, but He makes me strong, so in the long run I'll be better off no matter how long selling this house takes if I've got the right attitude.
On a totally or mostly separate note, I was thinking at work today, yeah yeah, about holding my new niece and how awesome it's going to be to see her. I'm so stoked!

Guns, hunting and guitars
So this past weekend I had the opportunity to go to Scott's dad's ranch. As you read in Bean's blog, Scott is our lifegroup leader. Anyway.......
We headed to the ranch friday night which is about thirty miles south and east of San Antonio. It was very exciting as I haven't shot a gun except for an M16 in the past six years. And I only shot the M16 once for qualifying, so it's not like I got to go out and mess around with it. So Carl brought his 12 gauge and two handguns, one baby desert eagle .45 and a stubby glock .40. Scott had his hand guns down there as well. He had a Colt .45 1911, and a Taurus .40 and tons of rifles and shotguns. With all the fire power how could it not be fun. Long story short the shooting was great. Oh, and to go along with the shooting, the ranch is also chockablock with feeders, so the deer are plentiful and fairly large. There were also hogs, havalinas, turkey, rabbits, and many other birds and wildlife. To get to the point I shot a five pointer. He should have been a six, but somehow one of his center points were broken off. The best part of this whole deal is that there is a full time ranch hand named Tito, so after shoot the buck all we had to do is hang it up, and Tito did the gutting and whatnot.
We didn't really do much playing as Scott forgot his guitar. What a surprise. So everyone intermittently played mine, but that's about it.
Alright, so there you go. It wasn't Disneyland or anything, but I still had a good time.

An apology.
For some stinking reason a pop-up was launching after you would bring up my website. That is quite annoying. I took out the sweet picture at the bottom of the suzuki gsx-r and I took out the music from filelodge, and that seemed to have worked. Not sure what the dealyo, but now we're all good. A big apology to Zachary as he was the only big mouth to post a comment about it. I will go as far as say you will be shot my friend. Just so NSA doesn't bring me in for questioning, I will be shooting you with an airsoft gun with plasitc bb bullets. out!

I scoff, kahhhhh
I don't know what I'm scoffing about, but hey.
As you all have either talked to us or seen on Katie's blog, we are moving back to Redding. Tomorrow I have a briefing to figure out all the details about when to get packed up and some other information that wee need to know. I'm excited to get the ball rolling, but I also am not sure when to even make a pack out date as we haven't sold our house yet. We've given this whole decision and process to God, so I will trust Him to work it out.
I am also missing some work to go to the briefing, so I will have to make it up at the end of the day. I'm not very excited about that because the traffic was already bad today. I'm hoping it was just the fact that San Antonio drivers are bad at driving in the rain, but we shall see.
On another note, my fingers still hurt from where my father-in-law shot me. I've got three circle shaped wounds on my hands, a good mark on my left arm and a few other minor bb wounds. And thanks to my brother-in-law Caleb, I have to wear my headset at an awkward angle so as not to hurt my ear from where he shot me. All said and done though we had a great weekend. Hopefully we can get together in February and have another go at it.
