We Were Born To Battle

blogging early tonight because i've got some time to kill in dallas while waiting for my friend onan to get off work. today was pretty sweet, i left almost on time but arrived here right on schedule at just about 7pm. i stopped a lot, because i drank like half a gallon of water, a 44oz. pepsi [gotta get it now because i'm quitting after this road trip] and some energy drink from albertson's with a picture of a cheetah on it. i guess that's supposed to mean that i'll run as fast as CHEETAHS against actual CHEETAHS and it'll be a tie and they'll get deported back to PLANO, TEXAS!!!

i'm totally missing lost right now. fail.

speaking of missing things, i miss my wife. i also miss my friends. i miss company at this point, so i suppose it's good that i'll be meeting up with someone i sort of know to chill. and by sort of know i mean don't really know at all because we met through facebook mutual friends. go technology! nic lazz called me while i was in traffic, driving through ft. worth and that was great, he's doing well in school and i'm stoked for him. i gotta get hooooome to my wiiiiife!

when i get tired of music, i listen to podcasts. when i get tired of podcasts, i listen to sermons. by the time i'm tired of sermons [or just can't process anymore] i'm ready for music again. it's really quite a convenient cycle, and i could definitely get used to it. listening to the naked cantonese podcast is helping my language acquisition a lot, which is great because it's beefing up my vocab. that was the biggest thing for me, i can string words together, but i run out of words quickly from lack of vocabulary. working on it! learning with christin and daily vlogging will help even more.

yeah. if i'm not too tired after i chill with onan and i haven't got a free place to crash tonight, i'll probably head back out and get some more miles behind be and sleep at a rest stop. it's probably about as comfortable as that motel 6 was last night, and $40 less as well. ;-P i'm gonna go try and catch up on a bit of my youtube subscriptions now. tomorrow: mississippi ho!
