A little A & R

I’m currently constructing a Facebook fan page for my friend Tim York.  I have to admit that I’m having quite a bit of fun doing it.  I was inspired by my future brother-in-law’s Eliot Patriot fan page, created by his bride-to-be, Maggie.  After a short consultation with Tim, I decided to add to his web [...]

Blast from the Past

Last night, Brianna and I were doing laundry at a local coin-op, and having a pretty good time with it.  Things were going quite well, until I apparently hurt her feelings by saying something she didn’t like.  I’m pretty sure she misunderstood me.  Her reply pretty much destroyed me.  She explained later that she was [...]

I’m Back…Again.

It looks like most of my internet connection issues have been resolved.  Yesterday, it got a little stormy in the Midwest, and lightning knocked the power out a few times.  I think that might have had something to do with the internet coming back.  I suppose it may have reset the servers and routers or [...]

Internet Problems…

Sorry. I haven’t been posting anything this week due to some network issues at both my house and my girlfriend’s apartment. Even the connection at work (where I’m currently posting from) has been intermittent. Hopefully it will all get sorted out soon and I’ll be able to get back to filling the [...]

This Reminds me of Bambi

I’m probably speaking too soon, but it looks as if springtime has finally arrived in Kansas City.  There doesn’t appear to be any snow in the five-day forecast, which is a good sign.  Of course, being springtime in the Midwest, there are going to be some thunderstorms, but that just means more greenery and flowers [...]

Back from California with Stories to Tell

Friday evening, I hopped on a plane from KC-International and headed for the coast.  I had an hour and a half layover in Albuquerque, then landed at LAX at about eleven o’clock.  Twenty minutes later, my sister Sarona, her boyfriend Arnold, and I were stopping through In-N-Out for some late night double-doubles.  It was a [...]

Pop’s B’day

I just got back from Califonia…details to follow…I’m pooped.

Playin’ in the Band

Back in mid-December, I went to a holiday party for my friends’ company, Lovesick Clothing.  It was a pretty sweet event.  They had their new clothing line on display, free Roasterie coffee (muy delicioso), some great art prints (a la Amanda Monson), and some great music.  The Lovesick boys worked out a deal with one [...]

CH…CH…CH…CH…CHA…CHANGES!!!

I’ve decided that it is time to give Basic Life of Gabriel a facelift. My current “theme” has served me well, but is too limited to accomplish the things I want to do. I may end up cycling through a few designs before settling in, so…PLEASE EXCUSE OUR DUST.

Hooray for Premarital Counseling!

Today, Brianna and I went to our first session of premarital counseling.  It was incredible!  We were both pretty excited about going, not only because we both agree that it is a necessary step before marriage, but also because we are looking forward to getting to know each other more.
Last week, we met with our [...]
