Didn't I tell you you would? Yes

Aren't I always right? Yes

Shouldn't you always listen to me? Yes

WOWWWWW!!!!!!!!! That's awesome!! Keep up the good work, bruh! Day 4! And if you can do it 4 days, you can do it 5... if you can do 5, you can do 6... and 7... and well, you know how to count.

But yeah, as I often tell people: take it one day at a time. Tell yourself, "I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow, but TODAY, I will not lose. Today, I win." And tell yourself that every day.

Congrats, bruh. Keep up the good work. To God be the glory!

Thanks Layla

I did have to get chantix which helps a lot. I'm actually doing real good though. I've been around smoke close up everyday and it doesn't really bother me. So, I'm pretty sure I've got this thing BEAT.

Picks up feet to KEYS shout music finally LOL

OMG I once had a prescription med that gave me some of the most vivid, crazy dreams I've ever had in my life. You really don't know what that's like until you live it. It's unbelievable. To this day, I can remember stuff from back then and have to figure out of it really happened or if it was one of the dreams. And then it was such a weird combination of real stuff with unreal stuff, real people and real places with dream-people and dream-places.

Whew. Those were some rough times.

Had the monthly jurisdictional (church) business meeting last night. I really didn't want to be there because Bishop Michael Pitts was in town speaking, but I made a commitment not to neglect my responsibilities to my own church in the event of a schedule conflict, so there I was. Turns out I had a blast, lol! Sat next to my best friend Angie, who keeps me in stitches anyway, but her mom was two rows in front of us which equals done.... Her mom is so doggone serious it's hilarious, and the more hilarious I think it is, the more serious she gets, lol. Last night they were talking about poor communication specifically regarding this years National Loyalty Day campaign. So Angie's mom raises her hand and says, "Well I get my emails directly from the National Church..." all matter-of-factly and junk, so Angie leans forward and says, "Well ain't you special!" I doubled over laughing, and almost couldn't breathe when she turns around all dead serious like the teacher's pet in elementary school and tries to explain to us why she's not special and that anyone can sign up.

You really have to see those two to get the hilarity of it all... I laughed so hard, I got dizzy, LOL!

More vivid to me, but that hasn't even gotten bad for me yet and I'm on my 3rd week. although I did have 1 that threw me off but other than that it's been aight. ~~I'm hoping~~ praying after i finish the first months supply I won't need it any more so it doesn't get too bad. I will admit at times it makes me mad therefore mean for no reason but my wife says I haven't been as bad as she thought I'd be. So, overall I'm good lol

my dad took it to quit and he said that's when he knew it was time to give up the pill. he said his dreams were so vivid and sometimes so weird that it felt like he hadn't even been to sleep when had actually slep the whole night. I think he was about 3 months in though. That's why I said I hope after I finish the first month I can go without the pill. Shoot my life is crazy enough while I'm awake lol

Uey put me on to her. LOVE her.

Gretchen Parlato - Weak

Just bought her newest album off iTunes and it's SLAMMING. Great music.

Tizzy Teej is on a Disney kick this morning. The music from these films is just beyond me. Hans Zimmer, Alan Menken...brilliant compositions.

Yeah, the worst one I had was about pink, hairless albino frogs that grew right before my eyes and multiplied like gremlins. It was AWWWWFUL.

Oh yeah! I have another random announcement! But this is the place for them...

A few weeks ago the MOM was out of town and so I had a microphone on the organ and sang with the praise team. I even led "How Great is Our God". My Bishop commented that he was surprised to see me singing and that I should do it more often. I told him that I sing all the time, but I just don't have a mic all the time.

Last night, the sound chick was installing my own personal mic at the organ! I told him in our earlier convo that on some songs that are difficult I have trouble singing while I'm playing. He said that the only way to get better is to practice doing it, so here goes nothing! I thank God for seeing growth in myself. A few avid supporters have been speaking it for a while, but I couldn't see it. After a while I just started receiving it anyway, and I think some buds are starting to sprout, lol!

Thanks! Man... just about a week ago we were having so many conflicts, I was ready to call it quits. I know God caused me to be back in that same frustrated position as the organist for this same church for the SECOND time, because He wants me there. So I took quitting off the table and just vowed to suck it up. It got better so fast, it scared me, lol.

See, these are the testimonies we rarely share, but need to hear. (Well not "we" on LGM because we do share that kinda stuff here... but you know, you rarely hear them anywhere else). Good stuff, Ness. Very encouraging.

Tizzy Teej is so tired of these fast food restaurants. I went to McDonalds, ordered a Big Mac, and specifically said "No Pickles". Got to the first window, she asked "You said no pickles, right?" I said "Yes". Got to the 2nd window, she said "Big Mac with no pickles, right?" I said "Yes". I get home, bite into my Big Mac, and what's there? FRIGGIN' PICKLES!

Maybe God is trying to tell me to lay off the fast food, which, being a college kid who can't cook, is the equivalent of starving.
