I'll Take "The Rapist" For $400

That's....therapist...

My life is so...interesting. And I don't mean that in a "I'm cooler than you and my life is better than you" way at all. What I mean, really, is that life in itself is very interesting. I've just been realizing that lately. Reading people's blogs, talking to people, just watching people at work and other places, thinking about how weird and crazy I am...this summer it's just made me realize more than ever how interesting and complex life is. And I've come to realize how cool people are in general. I just really enjoy talking to people and seeing what life is to them, and what they think about every day. People's minds are so complex, and everybody has something cool to say. As I was parking carts and drinking my latte mocha this morning as the sun rose, I thought about how great life is, and it's only great because I know God gave it to me and is guiding me through it. I thought about a song from a while back that I used to hear on KSBJ, the christian radio station in Houston. The main lyric of the song was "life is precious, life is sweet". And really...it is. Don't forget that. And I'll try not to either.

You know what's really cool? This summer I have been working on cart staff at El Dorado Country Club. I never thought I would work as a cart guy, but it's a really cool job all in all. Surprisingly, I wouldn't have this job if it weren't for my mom. She told me I should apply at a golf course, so I did. And shizzam, I got a job. The guys I work with are pretty crazy. Actually, I think they think I'm crazy. I have definitely laughed a whole lot this summer from working up there, though. We do some crazy stuff sometimes and they are a lot of fun. Hahahaa...I'm just laughing right now thinking of some of the funny stuff we've done. Most of my funny memories somehow involve Kenny, a crazy guy that I work with up there. Haha, hiiii Kenny! I know he's reading this right now so I thought I'd give him a shout out. Hollaaa. His nickname up at El Dorado is the gremlin, because he looks like one. Actually, he doesn't. But if you saw him you would know that the gremlin is a good nickname; he's just a mischevious little guy. Yeah, but we definitely have done some crazy stuff. Like taking the jump behind the 18th teebox...wow. It gives you a nice little adrenaline rush when you are off all 4 wheels in a golf cart and then do almost a 360 to stop the cart after the jump. Soooo tight. Won't ever forget Kenny's pyrotechnics show in the cart barn, which involved spraying long lines of carb choke on the ground and lighting it on fire. Haha...there are so many other funny things that we do on a daily basis up there but you'll just have to come and see if you want to find out.

Why do rappers feel the need to always spell out their names? I know that's no new news that rappers always spell out crap, but it still bothers me.

Speaking of "music", I just recently discovered a band called the Gorillaz. I mean, they're kinda big, I didn't "discover" them really, but I discovered them for myself if you know what I mean. They're really weird. I downloaded one of their songs called "Feel Good, Inc.". This is basically what it sounds like: Starts out with a realllllly weird guy laughing and then it's like dum dum dum dum dum feel good, and then they talk about a windmill, and then a rapper comes in and is like "don't stop get it get it", and then the weird guy laughs again. That's pretty much the whole song.

Tonight is one of those nights where I can't type anything right, and it's making me want to throw something. See, I'm even struggling through this sentence.

Hmmmm...well I feel like I have a lot of other stuff that I potentially wanted to write about, but I'll save it for some other time I guess cuz if I did have other stuff to write about I can't remember it. Plus, I can't type tonight.

Oh....um, don't stop, get it get it...

Kyle, I could have told you about the Gorillaz. They've been around for years.

I could probably tell you about a lot of other things too. Like... chavs and chavettes and chav-mobiles. But that's a whole other topic in itself.

Guess what??? I think people are really cool too. I am so interested in others' lives and how they are growing and changing and learning and it makes me so excited to see that! And college is definately the best place to observe all of that. Ohhh wow...I can't wait to get back to A&M! Oh another thing about how cool people are. I thought of this once when I was walking across campus. I was thinking how people will look at me and not know my history at all. Like, who would look at me and guess that I had lived in England for 7 years?? And then I thought how I could look at other people and they could have gone through really crazy stuff, too. And THAT is cool.

I'm tired. But probably not as tired as you were this morning.

Hey Kyle....you need to change your blogspot profile. Under the type of music you like, you put "no country."

And I'm pretty sure you've become a changed man since then.

Hey, I should tell Carolyn to read your blog. I think I will. CAROLYN!!!!!! READ KYLE'S BLOG!!!!!!!!! Ok done.
