@ Starbucks - Blogging

So blogging about Technology… what a wonderful thing. I have decided that I am going to get a Droid X from Verizon in a month, when my upgrade date of September 28^th has hit. I have been eyeing the android community and it’s time for me to join, at least for a year. I am only going to do a 1 year contract so that I’m not stuck paying for the data services that the phone requires. I figure I’d venture into this technology area so that I help those around me with it, and it just plain excites me.

I am idling to find out when this Kidney surgery is going to be, and I hope it is no more than 2 months away. Life is going quickly also with the life insurance that I need. I just want to relax. 

@ Home - Kindey Testing Day

I found out on Thursday August 5th that because this Kidney transplant will be a pre-existing condition, that I will never be able to get life insurance after the surgery. So they recommended that I get it now, and raise it up to what I want it at, because I also won't get to change it at all. That is something that I never foresaw with this decision, but God is faithful till the very end.


***UPDATE***


I got about 7 calls from different life insurance brokers wanting to help me find insurance today... it was really really annoying. I wanted to do this online so I would just get a ball park quote... not have 7 brokers all wanting to book me and give me a quote.

Ownage!

@ Home - Lots of stuff

Today I got Starcraft II after doing the audio work for Head Start. At work today I won a free book from a raffle, it was My Lucky Day (pun intended). Then after picking up Starcraft II from Best Buy I picked up the mail and found Microsoft Office 2010 Professional in my mailbox for me. I'm so excited about today. Especially since I also got a TV tuner card today and installed it. Now I can watch my shows even though I may miss them. It wouldn't be such a big deal but Hulu won't post them till 8 days after they air; dang Burn Notice and Royal Pains :) Now I can also record Adventure Time, Wahoo!

@ CCC - Running audio

Today is a special day, because I am running audio for an organization called Head Start. It is my second summer in a row to help them run audio. This year I am paired with Will who is doing the video side of things. Really, I am getting paid to sit here and read news on the internet all day and blog about it; it's quite nice. Tonight I am especially excited because it's the release of Starcraft 2 at midnight tonight. I wouldn't normally be so excited, but many of us have been awaiting the release of the game. After getting delayed and delayed further it's just time. Today is a good day, and tonight is going to be a good night (black eyed peas style).

@ Home - Arizona Diamondbacks Flag Lady

We went to the D-Backs game against the San Francisco Giants. The Diamondbacks ended up loosing but what happened at the game was really cool. Keenan and Justin's friend Shannon and I went and talked to the Flag lady that is at every Diamondbacks game. Shannon said that she talked to her once and she said she was a really nice lady. We started talking with her and found out her name was Cindi. She told us about her flags and found out that she makes every single one by hand, for every player; as in each player has their own flag.   Each player has also signed their own flag, and the team flag is signed by all of the players. Cindi at that time asked us if we wanted to wave the flags with her, so Shannon and I got to cheer the players on via flags. After that Cindi asked us what we did for a living and Shannon told her about working at Cornerstone Christian Fellowship and then she told us that she was excited that we were Christians as well. We talked and then she hugged us both because "Christians hug" as she put it, and said goodbye. Cindi is such an awesome person, and it was an amazing night. 

@ Home - After Jr. High Camp

Ok, so by itself camp wasn't a life changing experience, but in some ways it is. I have found myself having an easier time loving others. More so of the people whom I care about, but still, I sure hope this continues. I also was invigorated with this passion of service, and more specifically service with the kids at Chandler Christian. I have to make lasting relationships with people in a ministry somewhere, and I already have a great base here at Chandler. It makes me sad that I'd want to move away from that just because I have closer friends in a different state. If anything it has refreshed my passion for ministry with Jr High and Elementary aged kids. Yay, Go God!
