Rockin Awesome Life...

...is now the name of this blog. I only thought it appropriate because it is the address of the blog. I actually started a web page with the same name, but have pause development on that. I barely have time it keep up this blog much like a website right now. The name came about because thats what I lead. I pretty Rockin Awesome Life. It also had a kind of hidden spiritual meaning. The word awesome actually means to be other worldly, to be not of this universe. So if something awesome is other worldly, maybe even 'holy other', then a awesome life would be life from this other world. I like to think of it as the life that we have given to us by God. It's kind of a stretch but work with me.

Today at work I kept thinking about blogging. I don't know why but it seems that I get into blogging sometimes more than other. Obviously I can get out of the habit and skip a month in between blogs. But I hope not to repeat that. But now there is a new twist. I think I've mentioned my second blog. The one that I intend to write a store in. I think the url is www.undeadlovestory.com if that link doesn't work i'll try to fix it later. Now there is a third blog. One that I hope to discus  musical things. I enjoy reading about music gear and what works and what doesn't. I would like to contribute to the conversation by making a place where I can voice my honest opinion about the tool of the trade that I use on a nearly daily basis. This url should be www.theuglyguitartruth.com check it out if you think you may have interest. I like to talk technical, or as technical as I can get. Hopefully I explain everything understandably well.

Can't wait for Saturday at 4pm. I'll be off work and head to Church. Oh, and I'll have a new pedal in my arsenal. Its just a volume pedal, but its something that i've wanted to add for some time. The pedal is a modtone. I have one of their wahs and a chorus by them. They haven't let me down yet and they are reasonably priced. I bought it over amazon. One of the best places to check prices. (shameless plug I know, but its the truth)

I think this is enough rambling for one blog. I'm slightly distracted because I have pizza sitting just a few feet from me and I can't eat and type. Let me remedy that.

Later...

New Beginings Are A Lot Of Work

So this is the first of many blogs I intend to write in the next season of life. I guess it would be somewhat helpful for you the reader to know a little bit about the person that is writing what you are reading. First of all let me let you know that I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ, but I have some major issues with religious cliches and nonsensical babble passed off as spiritual. I don't swallow anything before taking a good long look at it. That includes everything. I may be a tad too analytical. I am a horrible speller. Just then I tried to spell the word, "speller" with two 'E's. No matter, I spell check like a mad man but somethings still fall through the cracks.

I am starting a new blog obviously but there is something else that you don't know. I have just moved from my parents home into an apartment in the neighboring city. "Trying to gain some independence?" You may ask. Well, yes and no. You see, I'm getting married in six weeks so I have to get some type of home in order. My parents, who are loving and supportive, don't seem to have any strong feelings about my moving. This may be because they have had three other children do the same thing. I being the forth to do so, they may just be over it. My wife-to-be's parents on the other hand have been enthusiastically involved with the entire process. They, having only one child if you don't included the paraplegic-wiener-dog, have been very enthusiastic about the whole wedding/home preparation thing. I am grateful for all of it

New Beginning, New Year, New Guitar, New Kitchen appliances. Its all so new. New freedoms, New house, New Home, New Wife, New Life, I just can't take it all in. I want to take advantage of all of these thing at once, but I can't, so I jump from one to the other. All the while time flying by. I want something to make me pause and reflect. Maybe even capture the moments and the thoughts that I've had along the way. So, really this thing is for me, but I'll allow you to come/read along. Don't get to overly excited, my life can be a little humdrum for most, but maybe you can appreciate the simpleness.
