But by the grace of God, I am what I am.

Warning to all who enter here (or read here): This is a bunch of personal crap that you probably don’t want to read.
How do you get over it when you realize you’ve been in love with someone for nearly 5 years? And I’m not writing hyperbolic here - I do mean in love.
This week has […]
Is that even a word? It is now.
I just don’t have much of interest to say right now.
When I do, I’ll be writing again.

I feel like my roommate is ashamed of or embarrassed by me. She has a guest staying this weekend, and while he’s around she won’t really talk to me or even look at me. Earlier today she mentioned that they might go see Enchanted again tonight. I made plans with another friend of ours to […]

I spent all day in bed (in quarantine, is more like it) yesterday.
It sucked.
But today, my fever is gone! I’ve de-flued (yes, that IS a word…at least in my vocabulary) my room and my bathroom, so all is well again in the land of Mandi.
To celebrate, I’m making this pie. And to quote the Pioneer […]

Everyone around me seems to be getting married.
The sermon at church on Sunday? Finding Your Two.
Bah humbug.

I belong to my lover, and his desire is for me.
I’ve said before that I’m not in love with God. For me, God has always been a father figure, not a lover.
Tonight I finished reading (rereading, actually), Ted Dekker’s Circle Trilogy. These three books are among my all time favorite books, but I’ve never seen […]

I’ve never celebrated Lent. Ever. It wasn’t something we did when I was growing up. The only reason I ever knew about it was because my best friend in high school was Catholic, and she always gave up chocolate.
I thought it was weird.
But something has happened to me this year. You all know of my […]

While I haven’t gotten much out of the direct mail fundraising side of things at this conference, the spiritual ramifications have been pretty profound. This morning’s devotion was was John 21, and it really spoke to me.
At this point, Jesus has already died and been resurrected. He’s walked through doors and in and out of […]

So I’m in California for the rest of this week at the 18th Annual Russ Reid Conference. My luggage, however, isn’t. Somehow my luggage ended up in Phoenix. And I was on a direct flight from Denver to LAX.
Apparantly my bag got the wrong baggage claim ticket attached to it. Which is absolutely infuriating to […]

I’m having one of those nights. You know, the kind where you enjoy copious amounts of self-pity.
Yeah. One of those.
It started out great. A friend of mine was supposed to come over for a night of Rent. But he called to cancel. Then my roomie and I went to see 27 Dresses. It’s a fantastic […]
