  • Day 24

    This will probably be a short(er) one. Not much has happened since the last update, things don’t really develop too fast in Knoxville. It’s been good to be home, however, surprisingly enough I’m starting to get ready for the drive back. That’s good at least, I was worried I would feel as ambivalent toward Dallas…

  • Day 21

    So I’m back in Knoxville finally. At first I started getting excited when I noticed more and more TN license plates. But then I was like “Oh yeah.” Later on the next morning when I was sitting at the old Starbucks readings and enjoying the almost Autumn like weather I kept noticing more and more…

  • Day 13

    Dear faithful reader, For starters, who are you? Aside from not yet realizing your identity, I feel I have let you down in missing my monthly update in July. I know you were probably crushed from the weight of not knowing what I had been up to, but if you can find your heart somewhere…

  • Life: Its Happening

    It all started as a line from Anchorman in the infamous Death of Baxter scene with Jack Black. Jack Black asks Ron Burgundy what’s something he loves, which among other things (Scotch, etc.) turns out to be Baxter his beloved dog, who gets personified much like Wendell can and does. Since Ron had inadvertantly caused…

  • {Insert title suggestion here}

    Just when you thought I fell through a worm hole in the library… The semester put up a good fight, but in the end, after an unnecessarily brutal thrashing, I took it to its grave. Here lies Spring 2008. January – May. Laid to rest next to its predecessor, Fall 2007, who incidentally did not…

  • Self-Titled

    It’s days like this that help me keep my past connected with the present. What started out as a rather overcast day that reeked of banality slowly turned into the kind of day that naturally evokes a mixture of emotions. It’s starting to become obviously spring here, which I’m sure will eventually shift into summer…

  • I should be writing a paper

    Alright, no more messing around. Seriously, I mean, why have a blog if you never write in it, right? So, from now on, more updates. First let’s talk about procrastination. Actually, nevermind, I’ll save that for a later post. So I just finished There Will Be Blood, and now I feel the need to add…

  • A Few Clarifications…

    I suppose it would be a good time for an update, this seems to be a somewhat transitional period in the semester, and maybe in life in general, it’s hard to say. Anyway, in starting clarifications, I should probably note that the About Me section in my facebook profile was not authored by me. Its…

  • Pardon Any Typographical Errors

    This is probably going to become an increasingly irrelevant post as you continue to read. That is just a courtesy warning I extended to you as the reader, you are free to ignore it and wander into the deepest recesses of my ramblings after a relaxing day off spent almost exclusively at Starbucks reading and…

  • Living in Subjunctive

    Life is very much becoming more and more in the subjunctive mood. Not that it is bad or anything at all… It just needs to materialize into a more indicative reality. Starting a band… Researching the heart… Crafting dialogue… Studying theology… Incessantly reading… Planning the ultimate road trip… Hedging out a sabbatical month… Plotting out…
