How do I archive this stuff! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!


D-D-D-D-BOBBY!!!!!!!!

Many moons have passed since my last blog entry, I know. I apologize to all who worried and/or thought I was in some sort of bad state. No, just busy with that wonderful thing we call school. Why must one devote so much time to a thing that can seem so trivial? Alas, we college warriors trudge onward.

I don't think there is anything in the way of marvelous updates....It's all been relatively mundane round these parts. I haven't seen a concert in what seems like ages, and I am feeling the need. Two weeks until Jay Farrar (of Uncle Tupelo and Son Volt fame) comes to Columbia! Then Guster in April and hopefully 1964 The Tribute in there somewhere too because I missed them in STL :( I must continue my streak of seeing them every year! In any case, this is a VERY sparse concert schedule for L.J. Daugherty. It'll pick up in Colorado this summer I'm sure, when I am 2 hours from Denver, where everyone stops on a tour.

Speaking of that, I still haven't heard about my summer project. I'm starting to get a bit impatient because I need to get my support letters out an such. Soon I hope. I am quite excited to see how God works to bring in enough money for me to go on that.

Spiritually, the last few weeks have been pretty dry. Some sins aren't so easy to run away from, and when you let them back in, they eat away your relationship with the Man like no deal. It sucks, and you'd think I would learn. But such is that state of humans. We don't learn from pain, and thus we can never be perfect because we keep making the same mistakes. "Who will set me free from the body of this death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! " (Romans 7)

Ah yes, the musical fun facts. RIght now I am listening to Bob Dylan's "Love and Theft" Excellent. It was released in 2001 and it just kicks butt. His new stuff stands right up with his classics. Musical discovery of February: Ryan Adams. Thanks to Kristen for that one, I'm sure to be hooked on his stuff rather quickly! And yes, I said RYAN Adams, not BRIAN Adams. Don't you dare confuse those on me. Everything I do, I do NOT do it for those who would assume I would sink to that level ;)

Homework here I come!
