I'm, like, human again
I gots me a car today!
Driving a car that's actually my own since first leaving for Denmark.
It's not a "cool" car - it's a '98 Honda Civic EX - but it does have an alright sound system the previous owners installed, and a sun roof. Aaaand I was going more for reliable and gas-friendly at this point. So I'm happy. OK, really happy. I got in one weekend what I was afraid would take weeks of driving all over the place checking out cars to get. God is gooooood!

frustrating times with andy...
so today, i got outta work at 2 and was going to go up to my new place to get my keys, take pics, and drop some things off. i sat around waiting for my landlord to call like he said he would. four hours later, i decided to call him. he doesn't answer. i wait a bit longer, still no answer. finally around 6:30 or 6:45, i get ahold of him.
oh, he's out of town.
great!
so he tells me to call his son who is handling everything. can't get ahold of the son.
wiat around til a little after 7 and say screw it and drive home.
i'm just about home and suddenly, there is a cop blocking my way and not letting anyone past. i couldn't tell why, but he felt the need to send me another 10 minutes out of my way...
yeah, it was an obnoxious day...
i hope i can move (somewhat) tomorrow.
at least i'm leaving for mexico...

You can't text me, and I share minutes so it's best if, unless it's pretty important, I use it to make/receive calls after 9PM my time or weekends.
I'm still looking for a car, and I've decided where I want to work once I get home because it's a good paying job (for my area), so I can at least work there until I can afford an apartment, get on my feet and figure out what I really want to do next with my life. I'm pretty confident I should be able to get the job, because it's the same company my dad works for, and the same office he use to work in, and they liked him there. Plus, my dad was like "You're a LOT smarter than a lot of the people they've hired!" Heh, now that's just gonna suck if I don't get the job, thanks Dad. I just hate filling out applications or writing resume's, because I was homeschooled, went to a Master's Commission (whatever the H that is), and worked as a...what, for the past year and a half. It takes so much brain freakin' effort to make that sound not at all backwards and lame to other people.
Osh aye, it's 82 degrees stil here at dark o'clock in the evening. I'm going for a run. Anyone want to come? Hannah? No? OK, see ya'll about.

Andy? ..... Are you in your bed?
Soooo, yay Andy! I'm glad that you are getting your own place. It'll be great. And now you can have SLEEP OVERS. Woot woot! I'm posting to tell you all that I am also moving... back to Denmark.
pfft. yeah, right. I wish.
No, I am moving into this incredible house that is only going to cost me $75 more a month than I am paying right now for my 2 bedroom apartment. AND I GET MY OWN BED. Praise the Lamb that was slain. You guys should see this place. It look like something out of a pier 1 catalog. It's a three level house with garage and full basement. The landlord asked me what my favorite color was and I told her green and she said that she would pick up tons of green decor and a green comforter for me. I dont have to pay for any of it! I'm reeling actually. I cant believe it. Also, we have a super nice fire place and in the basement they are putting in a huge game and entertainment room with a coffee bar. They are also putting in a couple sets of bunk beds for when people spend the night. So, you guys can all come and stay with ME. All of this is going to be done in two weeks and then I move in the last week of June. I'll post pictures soon as well.
I miss you all like mad. Jaralei... I dont know how the frick to get a hold of you. i accidently texted your phone again the other day without thinking. I was going to tell you to just keep my support check from May and that will be my pitch in for all the beer that you paid and arm and a leg for.
Also, you guys can watch the prayer room here for free for three days or something. I sing on Mondays 10p and on Tuesdays 8p. You will get to see me! Just go here .
Ok. Done.

Elijah
So Elijah came over after church today for a while and I made him spaghetti for lunch and since he's allergic to milk I asked him if he wanted some juice. His favorite juice is apple juice so I gave him a glass of that... so weird, I've never seen him drink juice like that before, and then he got sick, so maybe he drank it too fast??
Another cute thing he did was during service the worship leader was sharing some things because his dad just died this week and he was talking about how good God is and he said "I don't know if any of you needed to hear this...." and Elijah instantly screams " I DO!!!!"
