Catching Up

Hoy Hoy Bloggers,

I hope that all is well in your neck of the woods. I am just starting an "adult" blog. That is one that isn't geared toward the Trinity UMC. So, here you go. If you are reading it, I suppost you care enough to read (at least to this point).
Fantasy Football: Last Sunday night, as many of you were involved in, I was in the third or fourth Boro league I have been involved in. Again with what always feels like not quite enough prepration and too much paper I entered our league draft. I wish I could put some witty comments about it (i.e. Luke or Josh), but I am just not that funny. I feel good about my team. Damon seems to really like my squad. I would have liked to have made some more timely picks late (read: I wish I had been in front of the other owners who drafted players I wanted).
NCAA Football 07: I have also taken back up my obession with NCAA 07 on the xbox. I got it the week it came out, but after a fleeting affair with Hulk: Ultimate Destruction I am back to the pigskin. I enjoy the game but trying to get into football at the end of July is just a little too much for me. I am excited about today's release of Madden 07 but I am commiting to not pick it up until after November. I need to burn myself out on NCAA and the option before I move onto another $50 game.
Let's see...what else...OH. I can talk about things in my life that actually matter. Work (at Trinity UMC, Youth Minister, in Warner Robins in case you forgot) is going better. We are into our first month of our new Fall calendar and programs which is a relief. If you have spent anytime with me in the past few months, you know I have been pretty burned out by everything surrounding work. And if you haven't spent any time with me...too bad. But the kids seem to be responding (that means that they haven't called the pastor to complain, yet) and I know that this is what we need to be doing. Having no orginal ideas in a church for 5 years is no place to try and live (or grow).
Robin is doing well. About to begin her second year at Second Baptist Preschool and she continues to plan on working at the Vet office part time. Napoleon is going well and getting better at soccer. I haven't told him yet that we aren't going to drag our son all over God's green earth to practice and games for the next 15 years (2 1/3 dog years) just so he can awake up his senior year and say "Dad, I don't think that I am ready to play soccer this year." Oh no. I will not have that happen to me!...ok...flashback I just had a Dan Martin. Sorry.
Well, I am out. Sorry this was so long. Rookie bloggers. I actually think you care about what I have to say!

While I would always love a video blog from one Kirk Hagan, I'll take what I can get.

I'm still rocking NCAA 06, and after losing the Heisman in my freshman year to freakin' Matt Leinart, I've decided to prove a point (to who? I don't know) and only run the ball this season. How's that going, you ask? Through 9 games I'm sitting on 3,318 yards and 51 TDs with a 8.6 per carry average. Neurotic? Yes, yes it is...

Welcome to the blog world Kirk. May it consume your every free moment and may you feel guilty for not updating as often as your readers want you to.

Other than that, it'll be great.

Kirk- glad you could join us ramblers of the typing sense. I'm glad to hear you're happier and less burned-out with youth ministry (especially at TUMC). Tell Robin I said hello and take Nap out for a walk for me.

hey, blogging has got to be less stressful than fantasy drafts, right?

enjoy, stay in touch, and remember it's public.
