New Leaf

Its time for me to change.
I know that its several days past the new year and that this resolution is a bit late but its not a resolution, its a life change.
Since I was eight years old, I've been a Christian.
Until about age fourteen I was a pretty strong-in-my-faith Christian.
I know that God helped me through my parents' divorce and I'd probably be weirder and more messed up than I am without Him.
But when I was fourteen or so I started getting distracted by boys, one boy specifically and since then God hasn't been as important to me.
For about a month now, I've been reading my Bible almost everyday.
Since October I've been going to church every Sunday night and have only missed two from working late.
I've realized that God is really important to me and that I need to act like it.
My faith is really personal to me, I'm not one to talk about God to people, even though that's what I'm technically supposed to be doing.
Eventually I'll get to that I guess.
But right now I'm going to work on my mouth.
I'm going to stop swearing, cursing, cussing or whatever you want to call it.
Its really not nice for me to say things like that and its gotten to be a particularly nasty habit.
From now on I will not be swearing, cursing, cussing or whatever in my blog posts.
In a few minutes I'll be going back through all my old posts deleting a bunch and maybe just tweaking the words on some other ones.
I'm not going to get all religious and start posting "Daily Bible Verses" or whatever but I might talk about God a little more and definitely change some bad words for good.
I have to start somewhere and this is where it will be.
My posts will still be sarcastic and funny (If you even think they're sarcastic and funny in the first place. I do.)
I'll still be me, but with a little less sailor.
Oh!
Check out these really cool socks I got as a belated Christmas present.

They're knee socks.

Well, over-the-knee socks, technically.

Pretty cool.
