The Logic of Crocodiles

Hello blog people.

This blog is about a few things.
1. I've seen a few good movies as of late and I felt it was blog worthy to write about them. One of the movies was Yes Man. I wasn't sure if it would be as funny as Carey's previous movies, but it did not disappoint. I think I was crying when they were at the chicken slaughter house. I also just watched The Thirteenth Floor. This is one of my favorite movies. It's like a sci-fi who done it with a butt-load of moral tension. If you have not seen either of these movies then I suggest you plan in a good block of nothing into your schedule and rent both.

2. I have been exercising with the wife lately. We've been walking a lot. We run this block by our house which is one mile exactly but with some slight inclination change-ups. There really is no point here, I just thought it should be recorded and documented somewhere.

3. I have started listening to Every Time I Die a lot again lately and not sure why I stopped for so long. It's probably because that's all I listened to in Arizona. They are however exquisite. It is just really fun music all around. Check out this video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MivClrvXCpM.

4. I think one of the worst things about sin is those painful bumps that you get on your tongue. I bet before sin they didn't get those. What the heck are they anyway. If you know please let me know. If I could avoid getting them I would do all I could.

5. I'm seeing Death Cab tonight and it should make for quite a delightful evening.

Peace

So I've recently had a change of heart. I've decided that I want to pursue a career in skiing. It might be ridiculous, stupid, unattainable, and it definitely scares the crap out of me, but that's what's been on my mind and in my heart lately. I will always have a love for music and will continue to wish I was playing in a band. I will even try to get jobs that have to do with the audio education I am in debt for while trying to pursue this new passion. It's actually not even new. I've always had a passion for skiing. For some reason I just didn't pursue it like I should have. I should be skiing pro by now but I wasted time doing I don't know what and now I have to make up for lost time. I will need to hit the gym pretty hard all summer and ski as much as I can next winter. I really want to go to this freestyle summer camp but it is a little out of price range at the moment. What's really awesome is that my wife doesn't hate me for coming to this realization after spending so much time and money going to school. She actually is very supportive. This is all very sudden but I am determined. I think the moral here is that when you have a passion in your life or something that you're good at, pursue it and make it your life no matter what. Part of the reason I never pursued skiing as a serious career is that I thought that it wasn't acceptable. I thought people would think I was being a bum and wasting my life. That was a huge mistake. Don't let people decide what your life should look like. Anyway, check out a little Marmot terrain park session I did the other day. It's nothing awesome but I feel good about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QeJxl52oro

Then check out the level I'm trying to get to. I have a bit of work to do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8edWI-ocbA

This video almost alone has inspired me to do this. The skier is Sammy Carlson and he's like 2 or 3 years younger than me. He gets free gear and paid to travel around and do awesome stuff like this. It pumps me up more than anything.
