The thoughts of a newly married, recently graduated, christ-seeking, pastor-to-be

Streamlining

⊆ 5:07 PM by Zach Tanksley | ˜ Comments

Okay so I love my blog, but even I couldn't stand waiting for everything to load when I went to check how my updates worked out so I deleted anything linking to Amazon.com

So if you want to know what CD's I am listening too, ask, or maybe I will post, same with books.

Also I thought that having to go to a separate screen just to look at comments was dumb, so I found some code that now has a cheesy view of that usual popup built into the blog itself, and until I find something better, it works.

So I hope you are able to read more often with less hassle and comment with ease.

Much Love


P.S. This new keyboard is so quiet when I type, I love it.

 

The Triumvrate of my Command Post

So... I am not a purist. I can admit this. I love the Mac OS, and the design of their computers and their housings. Which is why I love my

20" Intel Duo Core iMac


And I have never liked the mice that come with Mac's I need to feel my buttons, all of them. So I eventually got myself a new mouse. So I got the

Logitech MX-Laser


And well up until recently I was quite pleased with my bluetooth apple keyboard. But because of a recent spill, it went in operable. So the joining with another company happened. So I introduce you to my new, and way more fancy (but not bluetooth) keyboard.

Microsoft's Digital Media Pro Keyboard


So there you go, definitely no purist here. But I have to say being able to open almost all my main applications at the push of the button on the keyboard is pretty stinking awesome. And Microsoft made it a breeze to reprogram everything. So big props.

Any other hybrid users out there?

 

He is shaking me up again

⊆ 9:51 AM by Zach Tanksley | ˜ Comments

God, yah he is up to something again.

He is reminding me of my passions that he revealed to me. Those of academia, and teaching, and helping find those who are being taught a story based understanding of the bible and giving them context. I have begun to ponder that if in a while I should look at going into full-time ministry. A while being at least a year if not more out. I don't know because I love my job. I get to meet amazing people, show off some amazing food and drink. So for now, it is just a thought in my head. Maybe God is just kicking my butt about not doing anything at all with what he showed me. I haven't done anything academic in a year or so. I am thinking I need to lead a small group or something, but I can't add that to my plate with all the Wedding Planning going on.

*Sigh*

I wish life wasn't so confusing. Or maybe I am just so blind I can't see what is going on. Or so busy.

 

MIssed the midnight deadline

⊆ 12:12 AM by Zach Tanksley | ˜ Comments

Well I thought I could get another blog in before midnight, but I missed it.

So today was fun, put a little time in at the Bistro, served some food and drinks.
Went home and finished a novel.
Karina and I went and hung out with the Kirkpatricks and the Kerrs sharing a chinese food extravaganza.
Ended the night with watching the Italian Job and chilling out. So it was a nice easy mosey a long day. I am happy.

It's 11:55

I have less then 5 minutes to say something profound and nothing comes to mind. I am still in the midst of Wedding planning. We have our songs picked, they are gonna be fun and exciting and very us. I am trying not to fret over everyday life things. I am coming to grips with the fact that I helped facilitate the process of sending both my mentor and a great fried to Temecula, CA. It is indeed the turbulent twenties. All I can say is at this point I want to know I am living life to the fullest, relying on God to meet me where I am and help meet my needs that I turn to him for. I want that to be my testimony. That God provided for my wedding when we needed him too. And that he provided for myself and my mentor as our distance between our homes grows.

Well less than 2 minutes now, nothing else to say. I am happy, this seems like a sad blog, but I am happy. I am content and at peace. It feels good to relax.

Time to go,

Zach
