Start the Clock


31 days till I say I do. Pretty exciting. Looking at my list of goods to get done, it's seems pretty manageable. I kind of feel like my list is full of surprises so I can't give you the details but some of them are finding people to take pictures for our photo guestbook, finish the wedding music, and talk with family members... so there's a taste.


Marieta's list starts to deflate and than one project turns into five so no rest for the weary. I know it's all gonna get done. Just looking at the list I can see that there really are not many things to buy or what not, just coordinating the details. Making sure we have everyone in the right place and all contracted peeps happy.


I'm excited. After this weekend my list is gonna be a ghost town. I'm rocking it. Videos are almost all done. And that's a big deal. When that's done I will have probably edited down close to an hour and a half of video stuff (shower stuff, kids corner stuff, and surprise videos), and that obviously doesn't include any of the wedding day events. Our wedding DVD is gonna full to the brim with goodies. How awesome is that.


Okay, I've probably talked more about my wedding than any groom who wasn't secretly gay. Don't worry folks, there is only a month left (the craziest month of em all) and then it will be back to movie talk, random BS, and good times. ROCK!

This book should not exist

It's late on a mid-October 2015 night and I am struggling with whether I should buy a $1,200 last-minute ticket to California to be with my family for my mother's emergency brain surgery. A week prior everyone was together in my house for an adventurous weekend climbing a wind turbine and celebrating my grandmother's 90th birthday, now we are on the eve of my mom going under the gamma knife for emergency brain surgery. Turns out she has a size-able tumor growing on the surface of her brain.   It's a bit of miracle that the tumor was discovered in the first place as my mom's routine cancer screenings didn't usually include brain scans; however, she had been complaining of blurry vision and balance issues, plus she had become quite irritable having been pushed to take FMLA from work to deal with what she thought was post-cancer "brain fog." Thankfully her doctor had the good sense to add it all up and include her brain in her next cancer scan. Sure enou

Finding "Clarity" in 1999

I distinctly remember Tuesday, February 23, 1999. I was still living in Iowa and immediately after school let out I road with a friend to Best Buy so he could pick up Eminem's freshly released second album. Always down for a hang, I road along as there was one album I had read about and wanted to see if it was in stores. That album was Jimmy Eat World's Clarity . On the ride home I didn't bother asking to put in my purchase as my friend was not a rock fan. So for the next hour or so of cruising we blasted Slim Shady at painful volumes. For those uninitiated, this was the "Hi! My name is (ticka ticka) Slim Shady" album. I was indifferent to rap so it got a little long and tiresome by roughly the third time through the album. When I finally listened to Clarity it underwhelmed. Nothing on the album is lyrically hook centered on kinetically riff focused like later Jimmy Eat World releases. For a 16 year-old ska and pop punk super fan, Clarity go
