So Rachael and I went to the doctor on Tuesday, September 18th. We found out that we will be having another son. So now the question is what are you going to name him...And my answer is we have thought of a few and the one at the top of the list right now is "Seth Thomas". We have approximately 23 weeks so we still have some time to figure it out.

On a side note, I just finished listening to the audiobook for "Blue Like Jazz". The first half of the book is good but I would have to only give it 3 out of 5 stars. The book is intended to give any individual a non-religious understanding of Christian life.

Another book like "Blue Like Jazz" called "Velvet Elvis" I just started last night. And this book also intends to breakdown the religious walls that we have created around us that keeps us from being able to affect our world around us.

Lastly, I just bought a CD called, "A Deeper Level". One of the songs on this CD reminds us to be salt and light to the world. I would highly recommend the purchase of this CD.

Contemporary and UpScale...That is your first impression when you walk in the door. The doors are tinted so no light is let in from the outside and as soon as you walk through the second set of doors you are in the world of Blue Fire Grill. Talking with the owner Keith Marshall last night he advised us that most of the interior decos were imported from Israel by a interior designer by the name of JoJo. Artwork, vases, and wall stand-off panels line the walls with vibrant color, yet are off-set with low lighting. It was also KM's idea to have the kitchen in the middle of the restaurant. He wants people to see the dedication and hard work of his staff.

The food- We started the night with California roll sushi and stuffed mushrooms. The sushi was delicately formed and tasted sweet. The stuffed mushrooms carried a strong sausage flavor with a bit of spice. We had two salads that were tasteful. For my éntreé I chose the Cowboy Ribeye with double baked potato. The ribeye was marinated to perfection a soft chewed steak that was butter knife easily cut. KM also advised me that he hired 2 restaurant éntreprenuers that specialize in sushi so that the restaurant can serve authentic sushi

The atmosphere- This restaurant has the black painted steel beams exposed the air vents exposed across the ceilings. During peak business hours, there are 4 to 5 brushed silver garage doors that can lift to reveal another area of tables. Might I also mention that a lounge area before reaching the restrooms holds a plush brown leather section during peak hours for the restrooms. All restrooms are for single usage for a total of approx. 7 restrooms from my calculations.

The price- Appetizer's will range from 5-10. Steaks will range from 17-29(29 for the 22oz Porterhouse) Great for a date night!

The subject is most likely broken spanish but the translation is: We are having baby.

We found out this past Thursday, July 12th that we are expecting our second child around February 23rd. We are excited about the addition to the family and dreading (or at least I am) the painting and decorating that will have to take place. Though the excitement out weighs any dread.

We will find out September 20th the gender of the baby. And I am sure your question to me is, "so what do you want the baby to be". My answer is I pray that the baby is in perfect health and otherwise I will happy to have another boy or spoil a girl either way. I just always prayed that I would have a son first that would carry the family name and be the big brother that is there for his younger siblings.

I will let you MySpace junkies know the gender once we find out. Hopefully I will blog again between now and then...I know it's been a while.

Well I have only bought 2 things on Ebay and I have to say that the latter of the two I am not happy with.
Back in March of 2006 I bought 2 Alive in South Africa DVD's. The guy that I bought them from only responded to me one time and that was to tell me that the DVD had been back ordered with his supplier. I was thinking well if it is backordered then why are you selling it as though you have it in stock.
So for the past four months I have attempted to contact this guy because the bank deducted the money from my account BACK IN MARCH but I never heard from the guy again!!
I don't play this game of let's lie to people to get their money then close our Ebay accounts so that they can't trace me....WELL I CAN AND I WILL TRACE YOU DOWN EBAY JERK.

With the information that Ebay jerk had on his account and that I had on email, I tracked him down(through Google) to find out that he is a roofing/construction business owner. Also, that he WAS a youth pastor at a church(that he no longer works at and the .. has been disconnected). So I have his direct telephone line and have already called it and got VM but I WILL be calling him back and one way or another will be getting 2 DVD's or $30.46

YOU KNO DATS RITE!

So I got a card last year from Rachael. This year she went to the photographer and got pictures of Will & herself playing together. It was a great picture! There is a white background that gives an almost angelic border around them. That is the best gift I could've gotten. She also bought me a new polo shirt from Express that i really liked. It is soft and feels good on me.

So needless to say it was a great day!

I will be in a licensing ceremony tonight at my church, Redemption World Outreach Center. I have completed the required essays, recommendations, and prerequisites. To be honest I don't know completely what that includes but I believe that after tonight I can marry couples and will be shown as a licensed minister of the faith.

This is something that I have wanted to achieve for a long time but have never really had the TIME to pursue. The next step after being licensed would be ordination. That is soon to come.

...okay, well not really. Rachael and I are going on vacation next week and our home for the next week will be a suite at the Star Island Resort & Spa in Kissimmee, FL. Check it out on the web. I like it, I like it a lot. We have been married for 3 years this past Wednesday but haven't been on a week long vacation since our honeymoon. We've went on weekend excursions but had to be back for the work week the following Monday. Well not this time. We are RELAXING and CHILLING for 9 days straight!! I can't wait. So like I said check out the place on the web: star-island.com

This morning was a not so fun morning. I had to go to the oral surgeon to have a tooth pulled. I didn't realize that I had a cavity and about a month ago the tooth chipped. I scheduled an appointment with my dentist and he said that having to fill then put a partial crown wouldn't be worth the investment unless for some reason I just really wanted to keep that tooth. So I didn't argue with the professional and went ahead with the "extraction" as they call it. I was a little frustrated Monday when I went to him all he did was a consultation to tell me that it needed to be pulled. I was thinking DUH... that's what my dentist has already advised me. Just pull the stupid thing...So I had to set up another appt. for him to pull it. Once I got in there though it was nice. The staff and the surgeon were the best. So now for the next couple days I am taking an antibiotic and a pain pill to get through it. Cool thing is he put in the disolveable stitches so they will just go away...Any way that's what's going on with me. I am at work but I will be taking the rest of the day off per Dr.'s orders.

This is my first blog (obviously). This is pretty nice. I have a bebo account but you can't play music on it. You can with my space so I think I like it better! So I jump on here to check out my brothers and a friends blog and I found a long lost friend from high school. We used to hang out some and I hadn't seen her since. I feel horrible now that I think about it, that I didn't keep up with her. But all is well now. I have to get back to work now before I get fired...not really my bosses are really nice but really though. OK later M8z
