Well, the meeting with Shimmer's parents went much better than expected, and they give me permission to date their daughter. This whole thing is a bit crazy, but they have their reasons for the things they do. I have developed a very intriguing fascination with Watches and Clockwork, and I think it could be a whole new hobby for me.

Last night I went to a NAVY drill, and.. that was ok I guess, lots of sprinting and flutter kicks, then we had pizza, but exercising for 45 minutes leaves you with little of an appetite.

Wow, where to start.

I have a new house. My family and I have successfully moved from our house of 18 years, to our new one (that im not too fond of, but what have you).

Certain things about a gal we'll call Shimmer, but I am not at liberty to disperse such info at this time.

I work at Zaxby's now, Yay chicken! Its not a new thing, Ive been working there for roughly a month, so meh.

I worry much about some things, but mostly life is grand, so therefore perhaps I should write more, eh? I dunno, I feel like I'm climbing a very steep hill sometimes, but I know that something either great, or very terrible will be at the top.

I am growing very concerned about the well being of Dizzy, and so is Shimmer. I worry Dizzy is spiraling and there is nothing I can really do. I want him to be happy, to get the things he so very wants and needs... and deserves. But I can not give him these things.. sadly.

Two nights ago I went to a Secondhand Serenade concert. It was GOD AWESOME. It was in Nashville at a place called Rocketown. It was an underground Concert basement type deal. There were three bands that opened for them: I Hate Kate, Cory Lamb, and Thriving Ivory. They were all awesome, but I Hate Kate was by far my fav from the three. Then Secondhand Serenade played, and it was the Shiiie . I got John Vesely's (lead singer) autograph thanks to a certain lady, and that was cool.

I have decided that, yes, indeed i wish to pursue Islam further, and that I should consult other Muslims about said decision. Alas, i know none, and none live in my town, so the only one i have contact with is my Uncle.. In Australia. Soooo... meh.

So Saith Dippy
