excuse the blah, blah, blahs...

i just noticed that my blog has been less than interesting in recent days... oh well, suppose i really need to feel inspired to actually offer up something captivating.
this post is sure to keep the tranquil mood of late but that's not necessarily a bad thing b/c it's temporary... it is what it is.
i returned for the last touch up on my lion tattoo yesterday... boy was it nice to have some pleasure pain... helps put some things in perspective.

i found out a friend of mine that broke up with another friend of mine less than six months ago (after a 3.5 yr relationship, mind you) is getting married to a new guy she just met two weeks after the aforementioned break-up...
surely i'm closer to the situation b/c of DJ, my friend of several yrs, who had it something fierce for this girl but never could work things out. i suppose he's moving on as well but it hardly appears he's even ready to seriously date, let alone join someone else at the altar... oh well, it's not my place to say when somebody's ready.

my friend DV is going to be the proud owner of a 1969 pontiac catalina that my company repo'd recently. we're both real excited about it b/c it's such a fun car to have for cruising around the open road... doesn't need much work, as we've already taken it for the initial highway test.

looking forward to tomorrow's men's group. a good friend of mine named AV joined us recently and has added a lot to the group's dynamic. another friend named MP has been kicking around checking it out and we hope he'll have the opportunity real soon since he's one cool MF. not only that but he and his wife are expecting twins in a few short months and could really use some prayer. MP has really come around and is now greatly looking forward to being a dad to three children. we couldn't be happier for him!

my fix of the past few weeks has been old death cab for cutie albums i've pulled off the shelf and added to the rotation... their new record called "plans" is brilliant and a must have for any fan of real pop rock music.

oh, i almost forgot... blah, blah, blah :)
