The other book

My how time flys when you are having fun.

Unbelievably busy lately. Got some really good stuff I have written from when my Grandpa died. It reads like a soap opera so I have to do extensive editing to get it ready. I need to start reading more often, it seems that when I read I am more inspired to write. I am currently reading two books. Aaron LRB gave me an AWESOME book on time management. Now that is a friend for you, someone that recognizes your biggest weakness in life and volunteers to help you with it. He bought this book just for me and I am very happy about it. Very well written and it seems that I am getting a little more time back every day. I am also reading the "First King of Shannara". Yeah, Yeah I know... but I have always been a junkie for this stuff.

Later,

AMAZING BUT TRUE!

Colleen and I were talking this morning about some of our most embarrassing moments as children and so I thought I'd share one of mine! We laughed about it but at the time I was experiencing it, it wasn't very funny :) Anyway, we lived in Cleveland, Texas around my grandparents at the time..I was in the 6th grade (I believe) attending a public school system and one morning my mom was attempting to get me and my three siblings out the door so we wouldn't miss the school bus (as we had no car for her to drive us) well.....I couldn't find my only pair of shoes anywhere....we ALL looked and looked....my mom was so irritated at me and she basically told me I was going to school that day no matter what she had to do so...to make a long story shorter (oh, I forgot one minor detail...I only wore dresses to school...not because of church but because my dad said...we didn't go to church at the time :) !! anyway, the only pair of shoes she could find were my older brothers cowboy boots so she made me wear a pair of his jeans and his cowboy boots to school. I was mortified....not only was that the first time for me to wear pants to school but I had cowboy boots on to finish the outfit! I learned my lesson...

some more of the story!

Hello everyone! Since Paul has been too busy to blog some more of our story I thought I would tell a little from my view. I'm not sure what all he has said so I'll just start from my trip out to California in November 1990. Paul had invited me to come to CA to visit him on several different phone conversations and so (to make a long story short) I did. I woke up on a Monday morning, called my mom and said "Hey, do you want to go to California with me today?" She said "You talked to Paul huh!" I said "Yes". Anyway, she said yes, so we called my older brother Greg and asked him to drive us...he agreed....we packed and left that afternoon! When we arrived in CA one of the first things I was told was that Paul didn't want to see me or have anything to do with me!! So...what did I do? I called him! 2 hour phone conversation condensed!!....Hey, Paul it's Scarlett. How are you? fine! How are you? fine! So I heard you said you didn't want to see me or have anything to do with me. He said "uh...um....uh....um....well....uh....um..." :) So basically I told him that was okay! I said I did come to CA to see you because I like you but I will have a good time in CA with or without you! (very condensed version). This was Tuesday afternoon. By the time I left that Sunday he knew he wanted to marry me. We arrived back in OKC on Tuesday then Paul called me that Saturday and proposed! I said yes (obviously) and we were married three weeks later. We actually only had three dates (where it was just him and me) and two of those dates were when he came to OKC to marry me!! I do have one regret....you ready for this:)....I wish I would have gotten married on the beach in CA barefoot!!! My family could not come out to CA for a wedding...my dad had just recently passed away and I just felt like I could not get married without my family being present! My mom was having a lot of difficulty dealing with my dad's death and then losing me was a little much for her. So we got married in OKC!! I have no regrets...I love my husband! I love my church! I love my family and I love the people of this church!

Well, that's a little more of the story! More later if you're interested!!

Ok, Ok, Ok...

So you are not going to post 15 responses/comments to me... Well since you guys keep bugging me to post this verbally, I guess I will. I started back at Dell in January I did really well on holding myself accountable to write almost everyday. BUT alas for about 2 months I have been a MAJOR slacker. McFly! "Hello, anybody in there?" Well starting this week I will finish my romance novel about my wonderful help meet. So get ready for a wild roller coaster cause it is an E ticket ride. What is an E ticket ride you ask? Back in the 70's when we would go to Disneyland they had tickets A thru E and the merry-go-round was an A ticket ride but Space Mountain and the Matterhorn were E ticket rides. This is were the term E ticket ride was derived.

Audios,

HAPPY ANNIVESARY, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, HAPPY ANNIVESARY, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

Sun, 12 Feb 2006 04:49:11 GMT

To the tune of HAPPY ANNIVERSARY... (Huh?) February 10th will go down in the annals of history as being the most important decision that I have ever made. I chose Scarlett Janee Mullens of Oklahoma City, OK to be my lawfully wedded wife. What a shock it came to everybody in my church in Chino, CA. No joke... this is what happened on the Sunday before I left to go marry her, it was announced in church over the pulpit., that Paul Farmer was going to have a reception in a few weeks celebrating his marriage and all were welcome to attend. He will be getting married this coming weekend. You could hear people all over the church say "He's getting married? TO WHO? ROFL! I just found out a couple of weeks before that so there is no way they could have known. I just thought it would be interesting to tell about the circumstances that led to this wonderful day in my life.

It was November of 1990 and we hosted our annual meeting in Chino. Of course as usual people came from all over the world to attend our General Meeting. I was working at NBC Network near Hollywood, CA at the time. Some of the people that attended were from Oklahoma City, OK. I had been friends with Mark, Buzz and RaVona almost as far back as I can remember. Just to name drop some of the other people I knew from Bro. Ray and Sis. Dixie Lenigers church there were Kevin Collins, Michael Smith, Michelle Chody, Shirley Mears and Eric and Martin Self, Bro. Lonnie Richards, Eugene Montgomery and Pat Addison just to name a few. Also there were these two girls I knew named Melinda Clow and Scarlett Mullens.

Let's walk down memory lane for a minute. I had met them a about five years before (circa 1985-86) in a General meeting hosted in Bro. Clyde Patton's assembly in Houston, TX. I sat in the band and played my trumpet on the back row next to Brian Williams. Brian is the only guy I had ever met that could play two trumpets at the same time. (Unbelievable but true!) So in front of us were these two pretty girls. Brian proceeded to ask them both out on a date at which time they said no and the introduction was very limited. This is my first memory of Scarlett. I thought she was a major babe! Then a couple years later, (circa 1988) once again at the Annual Houston convention I met her again and asked her to go on a double date with me and a couple of my friends. To which she responded, "Yes"! I was so excited I couldn't wait till church was over and BAM! she wasn't there. We looked all over for her but never found her. My friend Tammy Walker looked high and low but no Scarlett. I couldn't deal with the rejection in front of my friends so I did the only natural thing and went as the third member of what was supposed to be a double date. Guess who was at the restraunt.You guessed it. Scarlett was sitting there right next to Michelle Chody. Thank God she wasn't sitting by Danny Lane! It would have been over. (No offense Danny if your reading) LOL! Anyway we asked Scarlett what happened and she said she got tired of waiting for us at the church and went ahead to the restaurant. I tried my hardest to win her affections at dinner and even lied about my age to impress her. I told her I was 16 or something like that just joking around. She believed me. I tried writing to her on numerous occasions but she was not impressed with my Mickey Mouse Stationary. I thought it would be cool to send it on such but she still thought I was 16 So ended my two very brief encounters with this lovely lady.

Now we are back to 1990 and while hosting our meeting... guess who shows up? That's right Miss beautiful herself. I took another leap of faith and asked her to go out to eat after church. She said yes! We went to Straw Hat Pizza on Central Ave. After we ate with Doug Worth, Brian Williams (he was still right next to me) and Rebecca Mears, We decided to go to my workplace at NBC. Well I didn't know it until we got there but Scarlett was a big fan of DOOL. If you know what that acronym stands for shame on you! You will probably rot in hell for being a bad person. J.K. It stands for Days of our Lives. This happened to be a very popular soap opera that I occasionally worked on the set doing miscellaneous technical things like move cables and stuff. Well little to my knowledge when Scarlett got to get her picture taken on Bo Brady's Boat in his bed I was now cool. Imagine the five of us walking around the TV set at 2:00 am looking at the different stage settings for the next day shoot. Oh well when we finally got home I crashed. No good night kiss or nothing. When the meeting was over I gave a general invitation to all my friends... "Come out and visit sometime and I will show you around southern California. End of third time I interacted with Scarlett.

Now it is two months later (Saturday, January, 19th ish 1991) and I was kind of in a relationship with another girl but it wasn't really going were I wanted it to. Guess who calls me at work. Miss Scarlett. Mind you I had not been keeping in touch with her and I was really not interested in a relationship with her at this time. It went something like this... "Paul, I am on my way coming out to see you. My brother and my mother are with me. We will be there tomorrow." silence... What do you say to someone? Uh no can do already taken, please reschedule with my secretary? I said the only intelligent thing I could think of "Ok" (Duh, How lame is that?) Well as soon as we hung up I called my Aunt Shirley Mears which is where Scarlett and her Mom and brother would be staying. I said "Hey would you do me a favor and tell this girl, she is very nice and pretty but I am not interested at this time? I feel kinda bad that they are driving all the way out here just to see me and I am not interested. I mean I certainly don't want to lead her on or anything like that. Well...

This is all I have time for now but I will definitely continue this gripping saga ripped from yesterdays headlines. Stay tuned...

To be continued...

I am finally back from training in Texas. WOW! God is good. Although the food was delicious I am so happy to be back with my family and friends. Here is a little piece I wrote about David before he was King. It preceedes the battle that proved to be the end of King Sauls reign and his life. This is based on true events...

The trumpets began with magnificence. Piercing through the cool morning air like lightning through the darkness. All was prepared; the Philistine might had not been arrayed like this for over 200 years. David was standing on a hill overlooking the valley. Possibly the same hill his forefather Abram had stood on almost 2000 years before. The smell of pride and centuries of training was almost unstoppable permeating the morning mist. It was time for the lords to come together to discuss battle strategies. These men had been trained in the ancient art of war for years beyond count and quite possibly were the most adept soldiers in history. Just a little over 200 years ago they had left their island home of Caphtor and with a divided force, one on land and one on the Mediterranean sea they had conquered and destroyed almost every major empire know to man. After crushing the mighty Hittite kingdom and learning the secret art of making steel they began to sweep down the coasts of Canaan without mercy sacking each port and rolling out their military and naval might as if it were a giant carpet unrolling from the Aegean all the way down the coastline to mother Egypt. They might have succeeded in conquering the Egyptians as well but the believed their gods were against them that fateful day when the winds had died and the tide had turned. They had then retreated with the women and children to the fertile Canaan coastland. The smell of the ocean always seemed to precede them even when they fought inland.

The leaders of each city-state began to move toward the tent of meeting. David and his three captains moved toward the tent as well. So much steel! There had never been an army so well armed with swords, spears and chariots and shields and armor. The secrets they had learned from the Hittites would prove to change the course of history. A tall well-armed group of guards from Tyre stood as a barrier at the front of the main tent flap. They quickly stepped in front of the four smooth walking soldiers. Stand aside so that the royal guard for the house of Lachish may pass! Growled Jashombeam. The lead guards face twisted into a look of disgust as he hurled back "You swine how dare you pollute the gathering of the pure blood with the unknown mixed lineage of illigitamates' like yourselves." The guard never even saw the blow that nearly ended his life as Jashombeam pulled the heel of his hand back from the bloody wreckage that had once been his face. The guard went down and the ring of four cold steel swords was already fading by the time the other guards realized that the four warriors were marching past with the glint of silver begging for blood. Before anything else could happen the David ducked though the tent flap to join the other leaders. Of course not only was he the youngest lord present being over the city of Ziklag but he had also taken personal responsibility for the noble King Lachish.
