So I’ve decided to give this whole twitter thing out. I’ve been told its like blogging on crack. Great, as if I don’t have a hard enough time coming up with something every couple of days to post on this dang thing. I mean most of its filler but I’m enjoying it so far. So, if you feel the need to stalk me and get updates as to what I’m doing every couple of hours, you can check me out HERE or follow me via the RSS on the right side of this page.
As most of you know, I work in the Music Business. Specifically I’m at EMI in Publishing. I’m quickly learning that job security is hard to come by in this industry. If you’ve been watching the news, you’ve probably seen stories about EMI cutting 2000 jobs. Well last week it hit us. Publishing, myself included, managed to make it through unscathed. Unfortnately, nearly thirty of my co-workers weren’t as lucky.
With the state of the business the way it is, something had to be done. Bottom line is that as a company, we just aren’t running as efficiently as we should be. As a result, we needed to trim down. Sadly, that meant getting rid of some really awesome people who for the most part, were great at their jobs. Since we are reorganizing, 18 new jobs were posted. We work for an amazing Christian company but it’s a tough time. Please pray for all those involved.
Well we’re back. I’m married. I’m living in my new house. This is my first marital post. A lot has changed but it doesn’t feel all that different. The wedding was all I could have hoped for. The music was amazing. Best of all, all of my friends and family were there to share it with us. Our photographers put up a Slideshow some samples of the wedding pics. We also took a bunch of pics on the honeymoon as a tribute to our favorite show…

Tomorrow is the big day. I expected to be a little more nervous than I am. The truth is, at this point it doesn’t really matter. I’m excited about actually being married. The only thing I was nervous about was the execution of the event. Now I have come to the conclusion that it is just going to happen. How is another story… I’m done with blogging and the internet for at least the next week or so. I’ll post pictures of everything once I get back. See you on the other side of matrimony…
I’m a mere two days out from giving all of my life to another person. I have plenty to do but where am I? Panera. Fear not though, I am here to mooch off of their free wifi and work on my vows. Yep, two days out and I’m just now working on my vows. Good thing Larissa is marrying me for the procrastinator that I am. Just needed to blog to keep the streak alive. Back to working on the most important event of my life to this point…
T-minus 3 days and counting ’til I hitch up the ole ball and chain. I had planned to start my vacation time tomorrow, but about halfway through a meeting about collecting money from deadbeat record labels, I decided to make today a half-day. I took the rest of the day to eat lunch with my parents, wash my filthy excuse for a car, and meet up with my lovely bride. Today was a good day…
Only 4 days away from marital bliss and I am tired and stressed. My room, car, and desk at work are all a wreck. I think this is pretty indicative of what my life is like at this point. I’m not nervous at all. I can’t wait to marry Larissa. I’m just ready for all of this planning to be over. For those yet to wed, I recommend eloping…
This is in response to the “Splat Your Tat” Post on RagamuffinSoul . This is my tattoo. In case you can’t read my arm in low res iphone format, it says “The Annointed”. I got this in memory of my younger sister. A little less than a year ago she tragically passed away in a car accident. Her name was Kristin and this is what her name means. If you have tattoos, why are they meaningful to you?
This blog told me so:

As someone who craves a little bit more diversity in a city that is not very diverse, I can truly appreciate this. Not only is it true, but its also hilarious.
This weekend Larissa and I took pictures for the cover of our debut album. Not really, but we sure felt like rock stars. Actually our wedding photographer got a new camera and wanted to try it out on us and give us some free pictures. Check out the rest of the pics here:
