09359 engage(ment)

on tuesday afternoon i asked amy to marry me and she said yes! the asking included all of the following items: a journal, marsh chapel (the roped off, balcony area), a story, flowers, the element of surprise, the 52nd floor of a tall building, love, and, of course, a ring. i'll let you figure out how all of that works =) or you can just ask me and i'll tell you the story...here are a few pictures...

Food Night is Awesome!





































- Book Recommendation: i recently finished an excellent book, The Holy Longing: The Search for a Christian Spirituality by Ronald Rolheiser. he's a catholic priest, so about 2 percent of the theology is a little wierd, but that's good for us too! thought provoking, deep, challenging, and affirming, i think he has a lot to say in the conversation about christian spirituality.

- Music Review: i love the new angels and airwaves album, "I-Empire". what little music snob is still left in me says i should hate this music (the sound is huge and relatively one-dimensional, the lyrics are overwhelmingly positive, and the melodies are relentlessly catchy), but i can't help it...i love everything about it.

that's it for now...peace!
