this is me venting...
October 08 2005
I am Jack's sense of total frustration....
Everyone is pairing up. I'm single. I'm happy being single. But those of us who are happy and single often find it a little hard to walk out the front door during fall (or as my friend Joel refers to it, "hook-up season," much like basketball or football season, involving bets, recruitment, an off-season, and of course, "break-up season").
One of my first graders called me Mrs. the other day. I corrected her, explaining that I am "Miss McComas" because I'm not married. The boy in line behind her, shocked, said "You're not married? How can you have a job if you're not married?!"
It was funny at the time. However, when I related the story to my mom (because that was a good idea), she said something (which I have probably forced out of my memory due to trauma) about "why don't you just hook up with someone and get married?" My mother fans the flame that is attached to the fuse that is attached to the very large bomb entitled "WHY DOES EVERYONE THINK I NEED TO BE MARRIED?!?!" Thankfully, my Dad said, "She needs a man right now like a fish needs a bicycle." However unoriginal his statement, it was rather helpful in vidicating me.
I realize that in complaining about being single, I am probably just coming off as desperate for a date, but I'm really not. I'm just tired of the way our society treats singles--like outcasts. Lauren F. Winner addresses this in her book "RealSex" and she is dead on the money. She says that as great as romance and love are, you can't force people to be in relationships, and we as a society can't keep stigmatizing singles. So often--especially in churches, it seems--we treat singleness like a disease with symptoms (alone on a Friday night, going to a wedding stag, living in a single bedroom apartment) that need cured. THIS IS STUPID! I am having the time of my life. I get to spend my extra income on me. I get to save a bunch of money. I don't have to worry about someone else's problems, feelings, or plans with every decision I make. I can hang out with the girls one night and the guys another. This isn't bad.
On top of that, my current state of singularity is a choice. (Three break-ups in six months will cause you to make such decisions!) I discovered some time ago that I was putting too much stock in relationships. I associated a relationship with my self-worth. I was worshipping a boyfriend instead of God. I was doing everything I could to get attention from the opposite sex, and I ended up getting used, hurt, and bitter. I am so much better off now.
Don't get me wrong. I cry during chick flicks wondering why that guy isn't knocking on my door with flowers. I dream about a wedding day (a perpetual symptom of womanhood). I still flirt. I am up for a date. I believe God has someone out there for me. I love him already. I can't wait to meet him. I'm trying to prepare myself for him. But if now is not the time, I have so much else going for me. And for once in my life, I really believe that.
So to all those of you out there trying to set me up on dates, or raising your eyebrows every time I mention a male friend, or thinking "poor thing, I hope she finds a man someday": stop thinking that right this second. I'm free from all that. I'm single. I like it. I'm up for change, but I am content. I do not have a disease. I have a life. And an abundant one at that.
That's my venting moment.
I am Jack's overwhelming sense of vidication.

Amazed
October 08 2005
I am tired, soaking wet, over stimulated, grumpy and ready to poor myself into my bed and its only 5pm on Saturday...I still have to get through a concert tonight and 2 services tomorrow (I am going to hate 6AM)
BUT....BIG BUT... I had one of the best weeks and weekends I've had in a long time. God continues to amaze me.
First after a good week of hanging out with friends, seeing lots of shows (I’m now a huge David Gray fan), and working hard to get a huge project done I left for a weekend with 40 women from Mosaic... We went to a Beth Moore conference in Jersey (I drove a 15-passenger van and paralleled parked it by myself...) Anyway. This weekend was like the bow on a beautiful Gift god gave me. He's really been so faithful to reveal himself to me over the last 4 weeks. He brought me out of a 2 year old self-inflicted drought to a place where I am getting to know my God over again. I missed him...
THEREFORE, this weekend... was just the clincher to it all. I would put all of the take always from this weekend in this blog but I won't bore you... just know that God reaffirmed many things to me this weekend that he's been teaching me over the last 4 weeks. I am finally seeing how the puzzles of my life over the last two years (hec, the last 10 years) are fitting together to make this picture. All the good, bad and ugly relationships that I have been a part of... (personal and professional)... how my sin and my attitude affected so many people... and most of all how it over time left me missing and craving a God who never really went anywhere. I am just in such awe over who he is.
I am so excited about where he's going to continue to take me... I am excited about what His Word has to show me... I am bubbling with joy right now...even though I would love not to be around one person right now...
The rain will not get me down!!!!

Clint at the Wedding... we were ushers...
Clint's photo shoot
me... with short hair... I think I am missing someone...
josh didn't know where his date was...
Joanthan and Matt: always the characters... you know, after they got out of the time machine from the 70s.
awww. i like this photo.
The weddingers and me
My sister, Sarah, and Emily and Chris
Rachael and I again. I miss her. (sad face)
And that's it! *cheers*
And as a side note... the new version of PhuseBox makes it MUCH easier to post photos like this... sweet.

sometimes... i can't stand my family. but that's very rarely. like, now is not one of those times. but, i really can't stand it when my brother-in-law tries to tell me what to think. i don't know... i don't want to make some little thing a big deal, but it just irritates me.
at any rate... i feel like it's Cristmas time... ? and like, i'm just always bored. i'm ready for this break to be over. i feel like i should always be going somewhere and doing something... i just don't know what.
and Kasey, Macy, Anne, and Lauren are going to some haunted house tonight and they want me to go with them... but i just really don't want to. i don't have money anyway.
... haha, JohnJohn is talking about going to Kids' Castle. it's like 20 degrees outside. (exaggeration)
cheers.

I still think I like xanga better.
So I figured out how to use it..
October 08 2005
WHY WON'T THIS STUPID THING LET ME PUT MORE THAN 3 INTERESTS IN IT?! IT'S REALLY ANNOYING!!!
Ok.. Can't you make this thing pretty like MySpace, and Xanga? lol I guess I can write in here, if I feel like I need to say something that noone needs to know.. but the few people on my friends list.. cause noone knows how to get to my site.. and I'm not gonna be stupid enough to put the link on anything this time! haha.. Anyway.. Soo.. let me update y'all! My roomate moved out, now she's being a total bitch, and she's homeless. I keep seeing her around campus in her car, with a bunch of crap in it. She keeps telling us she wants to talk to us alone.. but she never wants to come up here! BUT.. our apartment looks SO much better since all her crap is gone out of it.. and my bathroom looks awesome! lol Nothing is cluttered with her crap anymore.. and it looks like a home.. not a museum.(sp). Anyway.. I think that's all I have to say right now.. so I'm gonna get going.. I'll be updating here, too.. for those of you who get on here to read.. Later!!

PHUSEBOX Update
October 08 2005
Well, it looks as though "Greenbox," the codename for the new version of PhuseBox, will be launching in about one week. I am going to be working hard over the next week to get everything ready.
sneak peek of the new PhuseBox homepage
Trust me, it has been worth the wait.

Wow, Catalyst...what an amazing two days. We heard from such amazing speakers as Andy Stanley, Louie Giglio, Don Miller (blue like jazz), Malcolm Gladwell, and Erwin McManus. Everything they said seemed to hit me right where I am at.
Andy talked about integrity in the first session and he talked about how to create and maintain momentum in the last one, and I wish I could just post the whole talk on here, because it is all about focusing our resources to make sure we are doing 2 or 3 things incredibly well rather than 10 or 11 things mediocre. He talked about how anything new creates momentum, so we have to keep things fresh and keep improving them in order to maintain momentum.
Malcolm Gladwell wrote a book a couple years ago called the Tipping Point that went on to be a huge success in the arenas of marketing and publicity and the like, but he was so good...talking about social power, and it doesn't matter how much money or resources you have, but you HAVE to be connected and be able to reach out into other social worlds in order to effectively get the word out.
Don Miller was my favorite. He was stinkin hilarious and talked exactly like he writes. Several things he said had a huge impact on me. He gave an example of something his friend Tony (the beat poet for those of you who have read blue like jazz) did when he walked into their meeting room and wrote city bus on the board and asked everyone to describe the city bus. They went on to say things like: dirty, smelly, utilitarian, crazy, loud, etc. and after that was all through he erased city bus and wrote "people" and said "this is how we think of people, as dirty, smelly, crazy, utilitarian objects, put in life to please us and to serve us. Man, that hit me hard, because how often do I look at every single person that I encounter as more important than me...every single one! We need to stop becoming friends only with people who validate our ideas and beliefs. Where are our non-believing friends? Where is our love for people?
Diversity is easy, Homogeneity takes work. -erwin mcmanus.

taking a break, for now
October 08 2005
this is my last entry for a little bit
who knows I might be back in a week
but until then I leave you with some of my thoughts.
I went and watched the excorcism of emily rose with Claire
it got to me
I believe that there are demons that do that.
I dont know..but it's scary
people overlook stuff like that
emily rose took on the responsibilty for God
she could have just died right there
but she suffered for God
and it made me think, would I?
would I go through that much pain for God?
I mean, would you?
she was a light to some people
just like bruce and ellen were
I want to be a light
and yeah maybe I wont get possessed
or die in a car crash or anything
but I want to impact someone
Duane says he believes that in heaven
there will be a time when we see the people
we didnt witness to and they will confront us.
personally, I would like to keep that number down
and all the people I have let go already, I'll see
and they'll ask me why I didnt help them
and I wont have an answer
maybe it was because I was selfish and didnt want to embarrass myself
or I just couldnt walk up there
I dont know but I just want to try harder now.
I fought with a few people today too
that also made me think..
I need to be better
a better friend, a better sister, a better daughter
because I have been awful with trying to be those
God, please help me out.
I need you right now, terribly
I'm so tired.

and it made me think, would I?
would I go through that much pain for God?
I mean, would you?
she was a light to some people
just like bruce and ellen were
I want to be a light
and yeah maybe I wont get possessed
or die in a car crash or anything
but I want to impact someone
Duane says he believes that in heaven
there will be a time when we see the people
we didnt witness to and they will confront us.
personally, I would like to keep that number down
and all the people I have let go already, I'll see
and they'll ask me why I didnt help them
and I wont have an answer
maybe it was because I was selfish and didnt want to embarrass myself
or I just couldnt walk up there
I dont know but I just want to try harder now.
I fought with a few people today too
that also made me think..
I need to be better
a better friend, a better sister, a better daughter
because I have been awful with trying to be those
God, please help me out.
I need you right now, terribly
I'm so tired.

If your name is James, you would put this in to the search engine: "James needs"

~Carla needs help with health and finance
~Carla needs to pee and encouraged by Kim slips into a small park and
pees on the grass while Kim keeps watch.
~Carla needs to know how precious and lovable she is.
~Carla needs to subtract 42 from 865.
~Carla needs lovin! (just so you know, this came off of a phone sex website! haha!!!)

What the hell is going on?
I'm stuck in the middle of melodrama and I don't even know it started.
One person doesn't know how he feels towards his girlfriend, my friend.
She comes to me thinking I know all about it.
I know fucking nothing.
She goes to my boyfriend for comfort, possibly?
What....in....the....hell?
My boyfriend asks me what the girl's boyfriend said.
And I still don't know what's going on.
He didn't tell me anything.
So why do they think he did?
I am lost.
Now it feels like everyone's against me.
My friend is gone for the weekend.
My boyfriend won't talk to me.
And the girl's boyfriend says there's nothing to say.
I fail, again.

Dear 960,
We've been together for over 2 years now, but tomorrow we have to go our separate ways. It's okay. It's for the best. And it's only for a little while. You're not feeling well now, literally falling apart. We need some space for a while. I know a great place back home were they can make you all better. Please forgive me, but I have to do this. I hope to see you soon, when you're feeling better.
Love,
James

Contradict (I Can't Make Up My Mind)

Words by:Max McGonigal
Do you think I'm real
Or do you think I'm fake
Is it wrong to steal
A heart that'll break?
You loved me first
and me smile
but I made you worse
after a while
So I can't decide
I can't make up my mind
Could this ever die
with not much left?
Can it pass by
With a little lift
But I can't decide
I can't make up my mind
Get up and make me good
Get up, get up, get up, and make me good
Get up, get up, get up, and make me good
Get up and go
I can't decide
I can't make up my mind

You people complaining about the cold and wet. This weather is great! I was driving down the road (yes on the bike), when I smelled something that invoked memories of fire in a fireplace, cuddling up next to someone, drinking hot cider. I'm starting to get excited.
In other news, I finally got my license renewed. I was there for a little more than an hour and it cost me $30, but I'm legal now.

college makes me sleepy...
October 07 2005
This week has been 110% tiring. I dropped a class, so now I'm taking a slackerish 13 hours. At least it should be a lot less tiring frolm now on, right? For one of those I'm an RA in a psychology lab studying child development. I'm trying to tell myself that this makes it a little better. For the next ffew, I'm just sitting in my room listening to Goo Goo Dolls and thinking about how much life has changed in the past couple of months. It's so hard to reconcile the old with the new sometimes. Things are soooo much different. No matter how much some things change others don't no matter how hard you try. Ironic?
My roommate is out of town, and Matt went to a square dance. My friends are in class and out. It's like tumbleweeds blowing through an abandoned town in an old western. I didn't really feel up to dancing. Hence, I'm going to chill a bit and then go run some errands. Speaking of dunder-dork (I mean that as affectionately as possible), Matt's birthday is soon. I've got a few most excellent presents in mind, but haven't gotten it all together yet...MUAHAHAHAHA!
I miss my friends from home, but college is pretty cool....on the whole

October 07 2005
Whew. The week is over.
And I'm still not suffering as horribly in college as I feared. I got a B+ on my English paper. A B+ in a sophomore level honors class where the teacher is pretty darn hardcore... yeah... that's not too shabby. I am, however, going to try to revise it for an A, because that would be super awesome.
Hmmm... not a whole lot to say today. I'll try to say something more worthwhile next time.

The story behind this pictue is that John was trying to talk on the phone to get some baseball scores. Meanwhile, Ben goes jumping around John like a lunatic squeaking his shoes to annoy John. Mission accomplished. Ben sank John's battleship.

THE UNWRITTEN RULE
October 07 2005
One unwritten rule of mine, and i think the rest of the world knows, is that if u mess with a guy's truck, or car, then he is probably going to get a little mad. so if u ever do anything to a guys vehicle, just be ready for how they react. its my baby, and im just ganna say, for whoever is reading this, dont touch my truck. please! u can do anything else, just dont mess with my truck. thank you. and now im going outside in the freakin cold weather to get some crap off my truck. HAVE A GREAT DAY, cya.

So those of you who know me, know that I love John Mayer. Well last night the John Mayer Trio was in New York playing at the Beacon Theater. I didn't have tickets because the show was sold out. To make a long story short, I got a FREE ticket! The show was amazing! Susan "my tall friend" got this picture for me after the show. Life is sweet!

Why I Suck
October 07 2005
Inspired by the following quote for Tommy Boy:
"Let me tell you why I suck as a sales man. Let's say I go into some guy's office and let's say he's even remotely interested in buying something. Well then I get all excited I'm like Jojo the idiot circus boy with a pretty new pet. The pet is my possible sale. Oh , my pretty little pet, I love you. So I stoke it, and I pet it, and I massage it, hehe I love it, I love my little naughty pet, you're naughty. Then I take my naughty pet and I go [makes ripping noises as he tears apart the roll] Uuuuuuh. I killed it. I killed my sale. That's when I blow it. That's when people like us gotta forge ahead, Helen, am I right?"
I decided to talk about why i suck as a person. Now before everyone (my 2 readers) get offended, i must explain. I don't honestly think that I suck as a person, it's the unique ability i have to be the perfect doormat for the world. I am giving up my day of sanity and relaxation to babysit a 2 year old (who is probably the most awesome 2 year old i know) but i don't know when i will get to leave. so assuming i leave roughly at 11 pm that does not help with me going to work on sunday morning at 6am, because they are short in dairy in the morning, so now instead of working from 1pm-10pm on sunday i am now working 6am-10pm...sounds like a fair trade off to me. and on top of that, i really need to be working on my online course, i'm looking for a job, i've got a midterm on tuesday that i don't know when i will get to study for. why can't i just have a 72 hour day and then i can get everything under the sun done.
enough ranting...

Stupid Bandwagon
October 07 2005
So I've come out of the dark hole called school and finally have time to write something!!! I am so upset and ashamed at myself because I broke down and joined the rest of the college world yesterday.... I am now on facebook. *heavy, ashamed sigh*. I was proud of myself for not giving in to another crazy fad of this world. We all remember the days of side ponytails and big bangs... enough said.... Anyway, my roommate Lacy convinced me into joining facebook so I'm on there and I have been trying to figure out how to use it which is annoying. I have little patience for technology,but I am pressing on. I am already connected to like 300-something people just through like 4 friends. Thats way too many people! Oh well, if you want to be my friend just look me up, I'll probably accept you.
Different topic: School is so much harder that I thought it was going to be this semester!!!! I feel like I am constantly running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I have been talking to God about it, because I don't think things are suppose to be this crazy, right? I dunno. All I know is that it has been hard because my heart's desire is to spend time with girls in the dorms and build friendships with them and share the gospel, but that hasn't been happening the past two weeks because of school work. I was frustrated and threw my hands up to God and just said, "I don't understand. I want my life to count for You and I'm trying to do that, but I don't see school work as glorifying to you. I NEED YOU to show me how this glorifies you." Well of course He is so great and faithful that He has been showing me how even in school work I can glorify him. Its not an easy thing, I am constantly having to remind myself and claim Truth. But I am seeing that through my school work God is teaching me that diligence in studying and being responsible with my time are things that glorify God. I am in the midst of learning this right now so I definitely don't have it all mastered, but God is stretching me and challenging me in this area, which is good because it means that He loves me and is growing me. God is good especially in refining our hearts. I see that I need to Trust in the Lord and NOT lean on my own understanding because my understanding is faulty and full of lies. God is good.

Alpha Omega's Defense Comes Alive, Ground Attack Earns First Win.
October 07 2005
When it's 60 degrees, windy, and raining sideways you stay indoors. Unless, your the Alpha Omega Flag Football Team.
With Lambeau Field-like conditions AO's second game of the season was against "Dem Boyz." Coming of a first game loss to The Shockers (18-7), AO looked to get back to last years form and start it's winning streak. AO's first drive on offense started out dominant. On 4th and short AO elected to go for it and appeared to have the first down. However, the refs disagreed and AO turned the ball over to Dem Boyz.The weather dictated the offense and AO found itself having to rely primarily on the running game. AO's defense which struggled last week found itself in this game and came up huge with deflected passes and made some great flag pulls. This was clearly a different team on defense.
The winning touchdown came in the second half. AO started at their own 20 and played AO style football. Methodically picking apart the defense with roll-out short passes and QB keepers. AO controlled the clock and the ball and marched all the way down to Dem Boyz's 5 yard line. On a roll-out left the AO QB just outran the pursuing defense for the only score of the night. AO went for one point and Chase Larson was the recepient of the point after from an AO QB pass up the middle.
The game ended with the rain increasing and the wind picking up making for nasty field conditions. At just under 2 minutes to go, an AO punt saw Dem Boyz take the ball to AO's 30. Dem Boyz marched down field to AO's 5 yard line. With 10 seconds left in the game Dem Boyz QB through incomplete in the endzone to his receiver with no time on the clock. Ball game! Final score, AO=7, Dem Boyz=0.
After the game AO and Dem Boyz prayed together. Jesus Christ was given the glory and AO prayed that those that didn't know Him would come to know Him. Dem Boyz were thankful for the prayer and AO invited them to Alpha Omega on Wednesday nights.
AO plays next week at 9pm on Field 3 against "As Good as it Gets." A special thank you goes out to John Barron, Ben Yergan, Alex Lewis ("who got their first"), Garret Haynes, Michael Gibelyou, Ami Driver, Olivia Elliot, Stephan Hamby, Robert Lewis, Wes Walters, Trevor Atwood, and Forrest, who stayed out in the rain to support AO!

I just got home from the beach last night.
I surfed again. Twas lovely. I nearly died. Very Humorous. Thoughts compelled me the whole time. By the end I decided to turn my brain of... seemed to do some good, but stuff is still on my mind. But I understand now, I mean, he just moved on. It's not all that bad... If what I want to happen happens it'll be for the best, for now I don't know what I can do. I need to get more friends, get out of the house, i think i'll go for a bike ride, sound inticing. I hate being so blah.
Any ideas of how to get out of this.
yes i know go to God, i'm doing that.
I need a way to get to him better though?
my parents won't take me to church,
I have people willing to have me go with them,
but I need to go somewhere with people I don't know,
I like to get thoughts from varieties of people.
It's always a good thing I suppose.
well i'm done writing for today.
I have atan and blonde hair.
think about it. I'm hawt mamajamma♥

poker night!!!
October 07 2005
so i played poker last night and it was a blast! we've been trying to get together a weekly poker game, but it just hasn't happened since the first week. well last night it did and it was soooo much fun! i think maybe i'm getting the hang of it! i love all my friends...they're the greatest!
Well - turn of events -
October 07 2005
We're coming home early. Because we've done it all, seen it all in Chicago - and because it is unreasonably cold here.
My sister got in trouble for playing with a $15,000 fur coat at Marshall Fields - and we've introduced my parents to the iPod - and my sleep is messed up bcecause my brother breathes loudly at night and keeps me awake - and we ate at the most amazing place called Ed Debevic's where the waiters yell at you and insult you ("We have more important things to do than bring you an iced tea, lady!") - and we rode the El, which is the Chicago equivalent to the subway, except it's elevated - hence the name - and I saw the place where I was born (did you know I was a Chicago baby?) - and overall it was a very nice trip. I'll see you all tomorrow!

A really long entry in which I detail why I miss high school
October 07 2005
I find myself thinking about high school and what seems like just yesterday, but really is almost a year ago. I do it all the time. I miss waking up and meeting my little group of friends every morning (no offense Jenna, you know what I mean.) The jokes may have been stupid and the same ones over and over but they were still funny. I miss the sense of being together and being safe. Sounds dumb I know, but I mean you knew people and you could count on them. I miss having lunch with the best of friends making stupid jokes and random comments about what we were wearing. I miss it so much. I miss Drama. I love you guys always as one of the best families a girl could have. I miss knowing that there was a show to do and a script to read. I miss the long rehearsals (crazy huh, I used to really get tired of them) and running lines. I miss the way it felt to be on the Siegel Stage because it was like another world, a world where I knew I belonged. I'm starting to sound crazy I know but I do miss it all. I miss most of my classes and just about everyone in the Class of '05 and a few of you '06 people (you know who you are), oh and I won't leave off a couple of freshman who happened to make a senior happy last year (or just laugh her butt off). I miss the predictability and simplicity of high school life. I even miss the pointless little high school dramas that seemed so huge. I guess I miss the feeling of it all working out and knowing it would.
The funny thing is when I was a Junior, I couldn't wait to graduate. I wanted the heck out of high school and to be able to move on. All I did was wish that I could speed up time and just go. Senior year seemed to fly by. I couldn't wait to go to Prom and then to graduate. But as the biggest events of my life at that moment got closer and closer I found myself fighting it. I wanted to go to Prom and I wanted to graduate, but I wanted senior year to last forever. There was a lot that was happening at the end of the year that I thought if I kept holding on to senior year I could stop. Everything was ending the group was splitting up and one of us (who I really care about ) was moving very far away. I kept thinking the longer I held on and didn't think about it wouldn't happen. And it didn't work. Now I want so bad to go back it isn't funny. Which is odd. I guess I feel like if I can go back and take my spot in the old stuff I'll be alright again. I went to Prom and had the time of my life; I graduated and managed to not cry until two days later when it sank in that it was really over. And then it hit me. You can't go back again. The past is only allowed to come back if you look at pictures or talk about it. It belongs in the past no matter how good it is. I can't just decide I want to live life like that and do it. It's over and done and there's not a thing in the world that can bring it back.
I suppose its OK to wish for the past and keep looking back as long as you also keep moving forward. Nothing lasts forever, all things must end, and people just grow up. Thing change, people change, and life changes. Nothing is so permanent that you can't ever change it or move on.
Forever yours, Lucky

October 07 2005
im kinda out of it now. i dont really have a reason either, and well. tonight wasnt the best night for a prank that some of my friends pulled, but its ok. i still love them, a lot. o well, everything will always get better like it always does.
so very tired.
October 07 2005
it is almost 2:30 in the morning. i am so tired. instead of going to bed, i am writing papers. lots and lots of papers. i have a 4 essay test due by 3 pm tomorrow. if i go to bed i will not wake up for a very long time. i do not want to take the risk of sleeping too late and not having time finish. so i have 3 more essays to write before i go to bed. i have already written a whole ton of papers in the last week. i hate school. i want to quit. if anyone is considering a major in english, don't do it. or if you must, don't take 4 english classes at once along with 2 other classes. you will hate your life at 2:30 in the morning just like me. well, i suppose it is time to get back to work. yay.
Costumes of October
October 06 2005
I am BEYOND happy that it is finally October. I am a cold weather person. I can't help it, I'm still Northern at heart. You wouldn't think that St. Louis weather would be that different, but it REALLY is. I like summer, but I'm miserable more than half the time that I am outside, so I can't truly enjoy myself. Plus, I'm fair so I burn easily and that's no fun. I don't know, I can't really explain the effects cold weather has on me. For example, one day last week (Thurs. maybe?) the weather was absolutely gorgeous. It was sunny, mid 60's, and windy. I was giddy with joy the entire day. Most of my friends were complaining about how cold it was and how they wish they had a jacket...... I, on the other hand, am going out of my way to be outside as much as posible and of course I'm wearing a sleeveless top. But that's how I am in cooler weather..... giddy. That's the word, cold weather makes me giddy. I remember it was a year ago that I was talking to Aimee Davis in the art room about how excited I was about it being October. I work at Hot Topic in the Stones River mall in M'boro and every weekend we have to wear a costume. I'm glad I have a lot of costumes that i've made over the years because it will be costume crazy/hell for me. Oh listen to this. My friend Beth's b-day is next weekend so she's having a costume party......... Well, there's 5 of us as friends and we've decided to dress up as 5 out of 6 of the village people but obviously, a lot more feminine. Well here's the funny part..... I'm the biker. So since I work at H-Topic and get a discount, I bought this patent leather black corset. This is going to be one of the funniest things. I'll be sure to post some pictures of us all dressed up.
U2
October 06 2005
Hello, hello! (sung as Bono-like as possible) So did anyone else watch U2 on Conan tonight? And if so, did you see Lane Wood in the background of the shot where Conan is talking to a fellow street camper? How cool it must be to live in New York City and get to do things like that. I watched the show with Matt and we were both immensly jealous!

so the Shiny Toy Guns show was AMAZING -as expected-
it was just... great to see them live. great.
i really enjoyed myself.
... but alas! my camera fell out of my bag in the car, so i didn't get any pictures during the show.

tonight was great! kids make me laugh. for example: tonight we only had 3 kids in the room i was in. we were all playing uno, and the other teacher, brittany, was using this kids name tag as a card holder. she said, "this makes a great card holder". the 9 year old boy says, "maybe you're a good card holder". ahahaha this really made me laugh. and then he said that he doesn't understand girls. and this, too, made me laugh. it really does start at a young age. and i know girls, you are thinking, but we don't understand them! i know, i know. so simple, yet so confusing. we girls are complicated. and brittany finally admited to it. thus we formed GAC. the girls are complicated group. however, not to be confused with GAC on tv. (see the complicated-ness) anyway...
tonight i was also able to dig into God's Word with nathan. i love that God can reveal amazing things through stuff that you didn't think had any huge meaning. sometimes we focus so much on the main verses, like john 3:16, that we miss awesome Truths and life application stuff in the verses that are usually skimmed over without much thought.
so yeah, great night. funny kids and an awesome God. not much of an update, but i guess that is what happens when your life is boring. oh well... i hope everyone has a great night!!!

ok guys, i am graduating this year and going to MTSU, and i have decided that my major will be PRE-MED! i will be an Obstetrician. i had only planned on being in school for like 6 or 7 years at the most, and this is 8 years of school and 4 years of residency. (pretty much school, too). that's 12 years! but, oddly enough, i think this might be my calling. if, however, it is not and school becomes too overwhelming, i will be an obstetric nurse (4 years), instead. yay for people with plans!...this could very likely not happen or work out at all. i am at the mercy of my father. this is just the vibe and calling i am getting from him right now. who knows?? anyways...in love u all and goodnight!! -R
