The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: "If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?" But... the good Samaritan reversed the question: "If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?" ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

funny.
so, i say something competely in love (and i think the people i was talking to all know that) totally not trying to cause conflict of any kind, and someone comments anonymously, and suddenly people are ACTUALLY commenting..i've had more comments in the last 24 hours than i have in weeks. So i guess thats a big thanks to anonymous, and a reprimand for all of my friends for not commenting more (melanie and ryan excluded)
isn't it crazy that we've created a world where people are SO defensive they misunderstand concern as judgement? Ah well, its not worth the drama.
My husband took me to the roadhouse after work and that made me super happy. i got 30 hours at the theatre next week--thats way too many since thursday was supposed to be my last day. i have no spine.
i've got some interviews, and even a call or two. i'll let you know if any of it works out.
we're moving friday (boxes, etc in the car) and then furniture saturday morning. we're still in need of some good help. lunch provided on saturday!
well, im tired and thats really the only exciting things in my life. WAIT-there is one more thing. I saved melanie from some overwhelming greek structures. yeah-im that cool.

crazy.
i have a lot to say. to a lot of people. but its probably best if i just stay quiet. because no one listens anyway (except maybe ryan). so let me just throw a little bit out there, and you can take it our leave it. its pretty random, things running through my head. some of it specific. most of it just "letting some crazy out" as megan calls it..
melanie, i've been thinking, and although you'll probably find someone else closer (mom, etc) as terrified as i am...it would be an honor.
megan, you need to see a doctor because your moods are getting increasingly more swing-ish, and i am worried about you.
ryan (and hollye), stay level-headed and remember, love is a forever feeling, not a this is fun for now feeling.
cynthia-how is your relationship with Jesus?
scottie-i love you, you are the favorite part of every day.
stevi and paul-just get married already. maybe im not around enough-but you both seem rather fond of each others company and thats a big part of forever.
family--send money.
if anyone has a washer and dryer they don't want (the dryer needs to be electric) please contact me as we are looking for them. also, if anyone has martha stewart like abilities and would like to help me actually decorate the new place that would be really neat.
i have an interview at a kindergarten readiness school (read: preschool special ed) in urbana. thats exciting. of course, i probably won't get hired, but since i applied online today and they called me today that might be hopeful. Lutheran Social Services however has placed me in round two *meaning im not at the top of the hire list and didnt make the first cut* so i MIGHT hear something next week. Dale won't believe anyone that rob is probably stealing and wants me to work WITH him to help him. yeah. right. man. my life is pretty boring. even when its eventful. im gonna go read for awhile.

covered in glue
IOWA was a super-duper time with fun parks and rest stops and family and such. I would post some of the cool pictures, but as we all know, I am completely uncapable of that, so if you want to see em, leave a comment, and i will invite you to view them via OFOTO.
Rachel and Joel are officially gone. I'm glad we spent the weekend together. It'll be different (since even when we lived in Indiana we still saw each other at least once a month if not more) but we'll survive. I am excited for them, and scared for them at the same time. I hope they find what they are searching for (although that might be tough as I AM RIGHT HERE!!) Seriously though--as much as they will be missed, I hope they can find a place where they are happier.
I'm finally doing the table project i wanted to do before we moved here--and so i am currently covered in glue. Mod-podge actually-but GLUE. I hope the tables turn out as cute as the idea was. I did one table just with scottie and me, and the other i included our family on. FUN TIMES.
Monday-we get to sign our lease, pick a time to move in, open a bank account, get our utilities hooked up, talk to mediacom and then find me a job. all at one time.
Oh, I quit my theatre job. As in thursday I will be done unless Dale offers me a ton more money-that job is so not worth it anymore. if it was classic cinemas, maybe-but here-no. Besides, that will motivate me to find a better job --right?? RIGHT??
My husband made cookies while I was at work. Thats reason number 156484652467 that I love him.
