fare thee well...

Robert Goulet died today.

the earth is not a cold dead place...

So we're at about two years and counting here in Lawrence. It feels like longer. These two years have amazing/depressing/uplifting/draining/joyful/sad and almost every other feeling in between. We moved here with a couple of goals in mind. We wanted to finish school and I wanted to pursue music with my band, the setbacks. I'm still in school knocking off credits here and there going part-time. The band however has kind of fallen apart. Our bass player left to pursue work doing music production in Arizona and recently our guitar player left for an undecided amount of time.
This summer was hard emotionally. I won't go into details but it left me feeling drained. Things are getting better now and I'm ready to pursue music again in a way I wasn't able to when we first moved here, but now it's down to just John and I. We're playing stuff as a two piece and talking about putting a full band together, but it feels strange and I think I just have too much on my plate right now with work, school, church, and trying to maintain a social life.
I hate using this blog as a forum for my complaints, but I needed to write this down, and I needed to complain just so I could ask any of you who read this to pray for me. Pray for renewal and strength for me.
