A funny thing happened on my way around the internet tonight. I found this blog called "The Thirsty Life", and by golly it had my name on it! Go figure...I have a blog. After about 5 minutes of searching my brain for the proper username and password to access said blog, I finally made it in. So I said, "What the heck...I think I'll throw a random post on this blog just to see if anyone out

I can't believe the month of May is over already! It's been kind of a crazy month, in some ways good and in some ways not so good. Sorry to all you faithful readers (I think I'm up to six now!) that I haven't done much posting recently. I hope if you haven't visited for a couple of weeks that you will at least read my previous post below from a week ago, since it was my only significant action of

We are in the midst of change. And I'm talkin' serious change....not the "oh, I think I'll start eating whole grain bread from now on" type of change, or the "whoa, where did that hair come from...and what's it doing in my ear?!" type of change (not that those changes aren't important on a personal level - perhaps too personal!). The change I'm referring to is a deep-seated cultural shift that is

...and most of you probably did, Penn State won it's second men's volleyball national championship on Saturday night! Please hold a second while I swell with pride........okay, I'm good. Just a couple of tidbits for you to share with all of your comrades at work who are dying to hear this info:Penn State is the only program outside of the state of California to have both it's men's and women's

First of all, apologies for not posting for a couple of weeks. Things have been unexpectedly busy in the Surovec household, mainly due to that wonderful thing called "spring". Cleaning up around the house and yard has been gobbling up every minute of my free time, and when the evening comes the only thing I've wanted to do is sit on my touche (a.k.a - behind, bottom, buttocks) and stare at the

I would like to make an official invitation to anyone out there reading this blog. Please take a minute or two and leave a comment on the site. I have to admit, the reasons are a little self-serving. I'm trying to get a gauge on how many people (if any!) are actually reading my blog. This will help me determine how often I should put up posts, or if the blog is meeting a need in any way.Thanks

I don't watch movies very much these days. It's not that I don't like movies anymore (even though really good ones are becoming harder to come by), and it's not necessarily a matter of desire. It's more a case of priorities when it comes to my time. In those precious and less common moments when I actually have down time, I would much rather hang out with the family, catch a game on TV, or do

....everything I wrote below about the books I list on this blog also applies to any website I might link to.Except for Go PSU Sports, of which I 100 percent agree with every beautiful, wonderful, glorious piece of Nittany Lions propaganda they publish. For the glory!!

As you may have noticed, I recently added a sidebar to my blog listing books I have read over the past several months (and actually like - a very important note since I do occasionally read books I can't stand!). In light of this I thought I should give a little clarification in order to head off at the pass any potential misunderstandings, as well as share a personal conviction about why I read

Since most of my posts tend to be more serious in nature, I figured it was time to write about something a little more mundane. If you're hoping for something more "thought-provoking", I would refer you to my previous two posts for March. Wednesday I spent the morning sitting in the waiting room of the hospital...the car hospital of a local dealership. Forunately, no surgery was being done -

This past week we did our third annual Good Friday Worship Walk. For those not familiar, it is made up of eight interactive stations that walk us through the last week of the life of Christ. Each station has a description followed by three sections: Read (various related scripture passages), Reflect (a thought to meditate on and pray through), and Relate (instructions to physically interact

Yes, my blog lives! Of course, it has been so long since it breathed its previous breath I'm sure I have lost every faithful reader it ever had (I'll miss both of you dearly). But oh well. In honor of the upcoming Easter celebration, I have decided to resurrect "The Thirsty Life" until I have another bout with ADD or TDD (Time Deficit Disorder).Since this is my first post back and it's getting a
