"I am my own worst enemy"

I wonder if I will ever reach my breaking point. Tonight I sure felt like I was right there - now a couple of hours later, I don't feel so bad. Here are the things not going so well.

1) Relationship with Lisa - we've just had a rough couple of weeks, a complicated emotional rollercoaster. Hopefully, everything is on the upswing.

2) Schoolwork - Today consisted of staying up until 3 doing homework at the last minute, skipping my first class (and the homework) and forgetting to do the homework for another class. Additionally, I am getting some bad grades (for me) in a couple of classes.

3) SIFE Stuff - Although I am contributing, I am not doing nearly enough for SIFE to keep things moving. It's been challenging.

4) AMG work - AMG is the Anderson Media Group, an eleven member public relations, marketing and design company within the Falls School of Business that I run. I'm way behind in a bunch of things on this front.

5) Relationship with God - notice how this is #5? I'm a sucky Christian. I know this. I want this to change. I lack motivation. God help me.

6) Cussing - Lisa brought it to my attention that I've been cussing more recently. Believe me, I cursed like a sailor over the weekend. Why? No good reason except for almost across the board when I cuss, people approve and even find it funny oftentimes. This may be because I only cuss around the people that approve and find it funny...but there are plenty of them. So that's something I need to improve.

It occurred to me tonight, that Thursday night movies with Ricky & Josh at Applewood is the only consistent thing in my life right now. Everything else seems to be changing in a variety of different ways. Thanks, Ricker!

Time work work/homework. Wish me luck. "Good luck," they reply in unison.

I however, will continue to laugh when you cuss, only because it is still novel to me, and because it's a nice break from hearing you say "freaking". Unless you cuss around small children, that is where I draw the line. The line where instead of laughing instantly, I wait until out of sight of the child's parents, and then laugh.
