So, yeah, yesterday was an interesting day.  It didn't start off too good though as I managed to sleep through my first class.  Not the brightest move I could have made but oh well...just can't do it again I suppose.

I had a job interview last night.  It was at Salem Lutheran Church in Moline, IL as Director of Music.  If I get this position I would ( Read more... )

So last night me, Greg O'Neill, and Ian Mason went to see the movie Brokeback Mountain.

For those of you who don't know Brokeback Mountain is a love story between two cowboys Ennis Del Mar (Heath Ledger) and Jack Twist (Jake Gyllenhall).  The two meet the summer of 1963 as they work as shepherds for a man on Brokeback Mountain.  The summer ends ( Read more... )

Greetings to all of you wonderful people reading this journal.

As I write this journal entry I sit at work.  For those of you who don't know I work as a DA for Erickson Hall at Augustana College.  And today I have what we sometimes refer to as a monster shift.  Let me explain.  Normal shifts are two, or perhaps four hours long.  My shift today is ( Read more... )
