I got a chance to listen to the new Dave Matthews Album yesterday while I was getting some work done.  It’s a darker side of Dave than I’m used to.  The critics loved it which scares me (anything Hollywood says is good is never a good thing).  Personally, I liked it on a different level but I still don’t think they will ever be what they used to.  Sad. (P.S. Dave is doing a live concert on Hulu.  Even more proof Hulu is taking over the world.)

I started reading Transforming Discipleship (again, I didn’t finish it the first time around) by Greg Ogden.  I have a few friends who have already read the book.  It’s good to hear their take on the concept of discipleship as I walk through Greg’s concepts myself.  It’s an interesting book with some good application.  We’ll see where it goes.

I checked off completing the Highland Biathlon from my personal growth plan on Memorial Day.  I finished 78th overall (16th in my age division) with a time of 1 hour, 34 minutes, and 43 seconds (4:44 mile pace).  I wanted to finish under an hour and a half but the conditions were rough.  I’ll take it for my first biathlon!

I started “Spring Cleaning” 2009 a few days ago.  This year I am working a the theme of “simplification of life”.  In other words I am giving away everything I don’t use or don’t need anymore.  So far I have thrown out two full garbage bags, given a full car load to Goodwill, and had two fires outside that were the size of our small sheds.  Life’s awesome when you live simple but man does it take some work.

What’s new with you?
