Monday, June 27, 2011. Sad Songs and Waltzes Aren't Selling This Year. Okaynobody freak out. I thought of a sad song today and it made me think, "What are the saddest songs ever? So I've put together this little list. Your contributions of what you think is a sad song are always welcome. Running Dry (Requiem for the Rockets)" (Neil Young). A Man Needs a Maid" (Neil Young). Where's the Orchestra" (Billy Joel). Fred Jones (Part 2)" (Ben Folds). Goodbye to Love" (The Carpenters). Sunday, June 26, 2011.

Jay's blog: April 2011
http://hopelesslyuncool.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. Better a dry crust with peace and quiet. Than a house full of feasting with strife.". I made a huge brunch spread to follow-up our sunrise service this morning. I viewed it as a family celebration. I worked hard to make things everyone would love. I wanted it to be perfect. Basically, it was all about what I wanted. It's odd, isn't it? I wanted to celebrate Easter- the risen Christ! Monday, April 18, 2011. Thought I'd Toss Up a Comment. This Lenten Season has been good. Unfortunat...

Jay's blog: The Tooth of the Matter
http://hopelesslyuncool.blogspot.com/2011/09/tooth-of-matter.html
Sunday, September 04, 2011. The Tooth of the Matter. Life has been a bit hectic this past week, so please forgive how long it has taken me to relay this tale. Although.I was tempted to wait another week to write about it, but that's only because I like to use the word "fortnight". Though, I knew something was wrong. Pretty soon, he started asking, "Did you find my bike? And when I had explained to him that I had not, he responded by asking, "Did you find my bike? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The T...

Jay's blog: First Day of School
http://hopelesslyuncool.blogspot.com/2011/08/first-day-of-school.html
Monday, August 22, 2011. First Day of School. Highlights of the day include:. And I'd love to be cocky and say that I'm some great teacher, but really it just shows the quality of students I was able to work with last year. 2) A student walked out of my class. But instead I've been praying for a way to interact with him and see what's going on in his life. 3) These two little buggers. Brennan started 3rd grade today. It amazes me how big he's getting. What a great start to the new school year! May you co...

Jay's blog: Finality...and Uncertainty
http://hopelesslyuncool.blogspot.com/2011/09/finalityand-uncertainty.html
Sunday, September 04, 2011. I just (re)watched the series finale of "Scrubs." I won't lie to you- I wept like a little girl. I'm serious: shaking, uncontrollable, hard-to-stop sobbing. Yet I trust that whatever comes through God's hand is for the good of everyone involved, and I am certain that he will provide (as he has always done) everything he asks or requires. Summer Highland Falls (Billy Joel). Out of Love (Toto). I'll Be Over You (Toto). Stop Loving You (Toto). I Dreamed a Dream (Les Miserables).

Jay's blog: I'm No Superman
http://hopelesslyuncool.blogspot.com/2011/08/im-no-superman.html
Tuesday, August 09, 2011. When I was in junior high I loved comic books. They were one of my main artistic influences, and for a time I thought that "when I grew up" I would be a professional comic book artist. Then, in high school, the Superman "S" became a convenient emblem for a warm-up shirt I wore to track and field meets. It was convenient because it could have stood for Shelby.but really, it was my way of expressing to everyone how great I thought I was. Hopelessly uncool, hopelessly flawed, hopel...

Jay's blog: My "Half" Summer
http://hopelesslyuncool.blogspot.com/2011/08/my-half-summer.html
Saturday, August 20, 2011. This summer has been.interesting, to say the least. It has also felt like the summer of halves. Let me share some of these with you. Thing Half Done This Summer:. This one was meant to be decorative and I intended to finish it quickly. It's a design by Charlie Harper (genius), but the precision got to me and I never finished (but I will). I don't really know how to elaborate. It's been weird. Certainly one of the more entertaining half-read books from this summer. It is always ...

Sunday, July 31, 2011. Didn't our hears burn within us? Have you ever had a good conversation? I'm not talking about mere fun or stirring intellectual topics. Have you ever talked with someone about what God was doing in your life and by the end you feel like the Holy Spirit was within you, within the other, swirling between you and wrapping everything in that moment into an almost utter holiness? Friday, July 22, 2011. I Am Thankful for God's Love. There's a wideness in God's mercy. It's been quite some...
