The King’s Presence is Like the Sun

[Editor's Note: Fair warning, this is about my personal faith. If that offends you, please just move on.] Sometimes I feel that Christians miss a lot of the point of their faith because we live in a democracy. Don’t get me wrong, I love being an American and the freedoms there contained. I’m glad I [...]

The Myth of Hollywood

I’ve been thinking a lot about Hollywood these days. Especially since my commute to work dumps me out at Hollywood/Highland – arguably the most tourist-trappiest part of Hollywood you can ever hope to visit. Every time I walk through the shopping center there, or step over the stars on the Walk of Fame, or see [...]

Happy New Year from Tabz – Dec 2012

2012 has been one of those years that try mens’ souls. Okay, my soul. Full of highlights and heartbreak the year is happily drawing to an end. Early on I decided that the theme of this year was, “I am going to make it through this year if it kills me” (a line from The Mountain Goat’s [...]

Tabz Christmas Letter for 2011

MERRY CHRISTMAS from Tabz, Myboyfriend (Machu) and Jack! Since I sent out Christmas cards, but no letters this year I figured I’d make a paperless Christmas letter. This has been a pretty crazy year, I can’t really believe it’s almost the end of 2011. Here’s what’s been going on in the life of Tabz. 1. [...]

Why we convene like this…

Recently a school friend, Amye, posted a “Goodbye Letter” to gradschool (the same program I’m in). I’ve been thinking about it a lot recently, especially in light of my own hopeful graduation this June. In the letter Amye touches on how fantastic it is to go to residency (we go once in January and once [...]

Feelings are the Unmentionables of the Human Psyche

It’s been a long time since I sat down to really blog. And I mean blog in the sense of “here I am telling you how I feel”. Don’t ask me why, but for the past couple years it’s been hard. Part of it is this feeling of being scrutinized by people that I potentially [...]

Higher $$ Education

So I’m contemplating going for my masters (again). I had started a Masters program at Moody (where I went to undergrad), but stopped because the classes were way too similar to my undergrad (in fact, I used some of the same papers with some light revisions). Now, my end goal is to someday teach college [...]

I'm Bringing Doofus Back…

I’m bringing doofus back. The 60′s slang term for idiot, dummy, whatever. I’m bringing it back. I know what you’re thinking. It’s not a nice word. But, let me explain. Last Christmas we went up to our friends’ house. The Mooses (not really their name, but you get the idea). They have 5 kids, and [...]

Overexhausted Blues

There’s probably no word my friends hear more from me than “tired”. Well, that and “fantastic” or “awesome”. I don’t know if it’s stress, not sleeping well, or my weight that makes me so tired, but it’s getting ridiculous. Not only do I feel tired, I feel -really- tired. To the point where I just [...]
