Fans

I really enjoy sports. Since I enjoy sports, I have a few favorite teams. My favorites are:
St. Louis Cardinals
St. Louis Rams
St. Louis Blues
Los Angles Lakers
Missouri Tigers
I like those teams because I grew up near St. Louis, and I like the Lakers because Shaquille O'Neal is my favorite basketball player. Because I like those teams, I root for them. I do this by going to games, buying merchandise, and tweeting about them- which is important:)
Due to my loyalty, I also have certain teams I don't like.
I don't like the Cubs, Nebraska, Kansas, the Red Wings, and the Reds.
Now I can choose to talk trash on these teams if I want to (and I do at times), but I like to think I'm not a big jerk about it.
Some people I feel take it too far at times and make themselves look like big idiots. I don't understand why people worry so much about the other team. I feel like its a short man syndrome type of thing. Why waste so much time talking trash about the other team when you could use it to root on your own team? Or make a sandwich. (If you don't like sandwiches you need to reevaluate your eating habits.)
When it comes down to sports, I just like to remind myself that it's just a game, and its not worth my time getting all bent out of shape or trying to get someone else all bent out of shape.
I like to just root for my team and let the teams I don't like worry about themselves. Someone else can be an idiot and make themselves look like an idiot.
We all know Jesus loves the St. Louis Cardinals.

1 Year Down Until I Die To Go

I am currently on my way back home from my weekend get a way to Washington MO and Joplin MO. My wife and I decided to use memorial day weekend to see our families and go to a Cardinals game. It has been fun. The other reason we traveled on this weekend is because today is our one year anniversary. I have been married a whole year. This might be typical, but I want discuss what I have learned in my one year of marriage.
1st: marriage is hard. Real hard. I knew going into marriage that we would have our struggles, but I never knew it would be this hard. It's ok that it is hard because the both of us are welling to work through our issues and not just quit. Which makes our marriage become better. You really have to learn to think about others first.
Which brings me to my next thing I have learned.
2nd I am selfish. Man I am selfish. In marriage it isn't just about yourself. My selfishness has got me in a bunch of fights with my wife. I think if I wasn't so selfish I would avoid a lot of time wasted fight with my wife. I have learned that I can really improve on how I should put others first. Especially about my wife. That is what's great about marriage it helps you learn a lot about yourself and helps you become the best version of yourself.
3rd: My wife has all sorts of feelings and emotions I never knew about. I have had to work on understanding all of them, and I'm sure there are more to come over the years.
4th: Marriage is fun. No way right?Yeah marriage is fun. It is awesome living with someone you love so much. Experiencing life with someone you care so much about. It is fun making a home with someone. Marriage might be hard, but working through problems and finding solutions brings great joy.
It's is fun waking up to the person you love every morning. It is fun to share meals together. Marriage is fun. Marriage brings me joy.

I think learning 4 things is pretty good. I love my wife and I enjoy my marriage. I look forward to the rest of my time on earth spent with my wife. I hope you find this post interesting, and maybe it helps you think about all the great things you learned early in your marriage. I would be interested in hearing about them.

Talk talk talk.... to God

You all know someone who talks too much, that person who always has a comment, or a story. They just like to talk. Recently my co-worker Josh compared a person who talks a lot to Rick Moranis' character in Ghostbusters. If you remember he talks a lot in that movie. I found this comment very hilarious, and a perfect fit to describe someone who talks way too much. I have a couple of friends that come to mind when I think of someone who talks too much. I will not say their names, because that might make them feel bad, but they know who they are. What I would like to ask is what if we were as talkative as Rick Moranis’ character and our conversation was with God. I mean we are supposed to talk to God, and I don’t believe there is such a thing as talking to God too much. I find the more I talk to him the better. I bring this idea up because I have seen the power of prayer in the last week or so and it inspires me and strengthens my faith. It has shown me that God is real. I have always believed God is real, but seeing prayer be answered makes him even more real. It makes me want to talk to him even more. So don’t feel bad if you talk too much to God, because you need to talk to him. You need to talk to him a lot. God moves in powerful ways, and he loves to hear our voices speak out to him in every situation in our lives.

ER are soooo fun

I am a sarcastic guy. It drives my wife nuts at times. So the ER isn't fun. Hospitals are boring. They should have rides or a bearded lady. I'm sure I just haven't found the lady with a beard yet. I wonder what doctors do in the ER I just see a bunch of people standing around. Well in here tonight because a student fell and hit her head ice skating tonight. I wish I could tell you she was about to check someone in the boards but she just fell barely moving. I'm sitting here waiting for her results from her cat scan and x-ray. After all this I'm going to eat, because I am hungry. And if there are grammar mistakes or you don't understand I'll send you an apology letter with 5 cents .
