Quickies

Yesterday held some interesting moments.

I left church to find kitty paw-prints all over my windshield.

I raced to deliver a letter early only to remember that it was Labor Day and the post office is thus closed.

But then I went home, took a much-wanted shower (I just love showering) and sat down in my room to check my email. Then one of the recently arrived guests entered my room. But I was still naked. She left very quickly after I made an inexplicable "uhhhhhhhhhhhhh" sound (I had no idea what to say; I tried to go with "you're about to walk in on a naked man but give me a chance to put on clothes and then you can enter" but all I got out was "uhhhhhhhhhhhhh"). She apologized profusely from the other side of the door, but I just laughed.

Philip, the owner of the house I stay in and the brother of the lady that walked in on me, told me that her face was beet-red.

So I guess it was a decent day?

Help. I need somebody. Not just anybody.

Please pray for me.

I'm only half-joking.

We just started a lock-in, and there are about twenty teens here. (EDIT: there are thirty-two. God help me) Many of them I do not know yet and only came via word-of-mouth.

And I don't feel like talking to anybody in the world.

Well, anybody but one.

But I need to show them the Father's love.

I hope I do.

Quickie Updates

1) After getting back on the horn today, I think that package is slowly making its way through Arkansas's state capitol and will find the proper office.

2) One of my former students just stopped by the office to talk about girl issues and he brought me ice cream.

3) I officially and inexplicably do miss Searcy.

4) I did not mean to end my last entry (feeling "cross" with God) as a double-entendre. If I had, it would have been the darkest and most disgusting joke I've ever made. Hope it wasn't taken that way.

5) I learned with certainty that relationships are nothing more than decisions. That and nothing more.
