Nothing clever to say, just an update.

It's been a while since I've written a post about where I'm at.

1. Left the church. I'm tired of the gossip... gossip that I found myself taking part in, even. There are other issues, but I don't feel like rehashing all that. I'm probably going to visit Riverview for a while, try out a few other places... I don't have a genuine relationship with God anymore, and I'm looking to surround myself with people that do so I can learn... but that's hard to find in todays world. Everything surrounding religion seems to be covered with that "grey area" fog... where standards are lax thanks largely to individual interpretation of the Bible. I can't speak for anyone and I can't hold anybody else to my standards, but I personally find it really hard to learn from a Christian who shuns others because of their actions. I've done it... and it was wrong. We need to LOVE these people, not look down on them, or worse yet, make fun of them.

2. Still single. Not going well. I keep meeting these girls... well, this GIRL... an awesome girl... but if distance isn't the problem, it's the lack of a casual social venue, and the opportunity to get to know each other. It really sucks. Like REALLY sucks.

3. Getting frustrated with people. Friends, in particular. Don't get me wrong, I love my friends but sometimes I wish they weren't so self centered. The difficult part about saying things like this is that because I am generalizing so as to not offend those whom I'm speaking of, others may think I'm talking of THEM when I'm not. So if you're reading this, it's not you. I'm through trying to get ahold of people... they can call me from now on. I no longer make plans. If I'm invited, I'll go. But I'm not going to sit here and feel bad when I find out my friends all went and did something awesome but "forgot" to call and invite me. Friends don't forget to call their friends. If they do, well maybe they're not such good friends. Sara felt this way recently because Nick, Nikki and I went to Rum Runners without her. I felt really bad, and I didn't call her because I thought she was working and didn't want to bother her. I always got the impression whenever I called her while she was working that I was bothering her or annoying her. As far as Nick and Nikki... I don't know, don't care. That's between them and Sara and has nothing to do with me. But Sara knows I didn't forget her... I just assumed too much. Not the end of the world. Either way... Chris is back, and we've been hanging out. Like old times... it's great. Too bad AJ isn't around.

4. Still haven't patched things up with Jess, but honestly, I don't really care to anymore. I can say this now with 100% certainty... oh boy, I've been waiting a LONG time to say this... I don't have feelings for her anymore! NONE! HAH! I don't. I'm not attracted to her anymore, I dislike her personality, and I can't even figure out why I thought I was in love with her to begin with. We're civil toward each other whenever we're around each other, and that's good enough. I have no problem chatting it up with her like old times, but you'll never catch me calling her for any reason other than business related issues (I forgot to give her money for the pizza we ordered at Sara's place the other night).

Well that's pretty much all I have to say.
