Soooo stinking bored....

My Boring Life (and other things that upset me in this time of being lame and depressed and stuff because of being ill)

So now I'm really angry and sad. I've been sick since Sunday, which has sucked a lot. I basically just spent the days being really bored and watching lots of tv shows. I spent the whole week looking forward to finally feeling better and being able to go to youth; that beautiful place where I could finally be social again and be with my friends. Alas, the infamous "Friday" has arrived, and I'm still sick. I'm not allowed to go to youth because I'm too likely to get everyone else there sick. Screw them, they can all get sick if they want! Then we can all be sick and miserable together.... *siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiighh* Now I'm back to being incredibly bored again.... So this is awesome. 

Ok, I'm done ranting about how annoyed I am that I'm sick and am having such a hard time getting better. Grrrrr.

I also have nothing else to write about. ON TO THE NEXT BIT.

My Spiritual life (and how I'll probably make you feel guilty for being almost as bad as me in it's upkeep)

Just the other day I started praying for some of my unsaved friends, and I remember saying something like "help him to see that there's so much more to life than just the simple earthly pleasures". I stopped after saying that, and thought about what I was saying. I wanted my friends who don't even know God to begin to understand something that I don't even grasp that well. I got down again and started praying the same prayer again, but this time about myself.

I get caught up so often in my own short sighted goals. I focus on little things that bring earthly pleasure all the time. It's so easy. The uphill journey to have an afterlife focused mind is a lot more steep than I always expect it to be. I feel like I'm making progress sometimes, so I just kind of let myself coast for a while. Coasting in your Christianity is never really a good idea, since you end up coasting in the wrong direction. 

Focus on God. Even though it's harder, it's worth it!

My stuff (usually just an update about how far I am in the production of that AE album)

I'm almost done that AE album.

We just finally took down almost all of the excess musical stuff that was set up in the loft. The Vocals are all recorded, all the electric guitars are recorded. I just need to record the acoustic guitars for one song, and we should be set. Just a little bit of mixing and mastering and it'll be ready to ship out for their first show. Of course, they'll still need to burn a couple hundred copies, print the label on, and put 'em in cases. I don't think that should be too hard, since the current plan is to pay my little brother to do it.

In other news, I'm helping out on another music project with a friend of mine who lives in the states. I'll give you some more details when I get them, but I think it'll be a lot of fun when it gets going.
