Ice cream

I have decided to see less movies and have more ice cream. If I start to look as though this is what I am doing then I shall quit but for now this is much fun. You see the movies I go to are at the cheap theater and cost me about four dollars. The ice cream (which there is a photo of on my foto page) is about 3.25. Not only that but I walk to the ice cream parlor and I drive to the theater (I just assume this is better). I will at least enjoy this for the summer. There is something nostelgic about walking to the ice cream parlor, not from my childhood so much just a feeling that this is something worth doing. It also brings back the walks we would have around Waterton in the mountains. The weather here in the summer after it has rained is absolutly wonderful. Total mountain smells.

I have been going through an intense amount of life changeing that seems to be affecting my every thought. It is hard to explain and I am still at a point where I feel this is not important. I feel no need to try and tell you nor even myself what it is I am going through. All I know is that as I walked home today from work my heart was so glad, joy like I've never known before. The one thing I will say is that my God is awesome and beyond my explainations. He is, of all wonders, the greatest.

The movies I enjoy

All right I will start this segmant letting you know first off that if you want to think of me as only a deep thinker, then you should not read on. I have a few, what you call, guilty plessures and I am now about to disclose them.

Last night I, with my father, went to see another, what I call, Pink fluff movie. This one even had sparkle dust in it. I love watching modern day fairy tales. Movies that are so extreem it is laughable. The ones where the love is at first sight, the problems between lovers are solved easily and quickly, and the solving is sweet and silly. Okey, so there is no real thought put into the writting. it is easily pumped out foolishness based on nothing but soft, velvaty feelings. Yah they are storys for the thirteen year old but I like to think that this just means I am young at heart.

I no longer trouble myself with the fear that this makes me a shallow, small brained fool (not to say that those of us who watch these movies are or aren't) that is the point. I don't care. So what if the fact that I like these movies proves this to be true. I will then be the small brained simpleton that I am and have the goofy smile to go with it. I like it and will enjoy them as I please.

The movie I went to see was "13 going on 30" A movie where a young 13 year old makes a wish (with sparkle dust falling on her) to be older and wakes up to find she has missed the past how many years and is 30. The years that past did happen she just doesn't remember living them. It is a story of lost loves and regrets and it is sappy to the max. If you are one for fluffy and pink then go if you are not then stay far away. Even the credits were in pink, that should say something.

I am home

I have arrived back in the land of the calgary flames. Yes I found out to day that people lost their jobs due to the nasty Flame flu that went around like a wild fire. Luckely I was out of town at the time and not prone to such firery ways. In the end it was all for not. NO matter how much a team is supported there is nothing that can be done when the ref makes a bad call or a team member stays up to late the night before. All the flags flying high only made for a sorry sight and now there is but one or two loyal fans that still fly theirs. Probably more out of nostalgia than true support. Like a child will play dress up when their heart is no longer in it because they remember that they liked it so much at one time. With a sad look in their eye they put on the outfit of Robin Hood hopeing the clothes will make them feel the adventure they felt as a child. It is lost, all the remains is the heart ache of adulthood chasing them down the road of teenage fears.

I have been going through some things (details shall be kept fully to myself) things I never knew I would have to go through. It is amazing what all can happen in ones life. I feel for the first time that my eyes are opened. One thing I have seen in all this is that once ones eyes are open to a small portion of the puzzle suddenly the whole thing becomes clear. YOu can step back and say I know what this is and where all the peices are and putting them in will be no problem at all. In the box it seems far beyond even a picture let alone one that you could recognise. But I do. My puzzle is comeing so clear and so fast it is beyond me. I can barely keep up. The other thing about all this is that I know it is not because I started laying out the peices, God did that. He layed them out in an order that I could finaly work with. For now I will leave it at this. There is so much in my heart that I must ponder it and sit at His feet. I can do nothing else.

I mainly came to post this post for the sack of mentioning a very fun ?Blog? I do not know what else to call it. All I can say is I enjoyed it much And highly recomend it to all.
