a lesson in service

my new home teachers came by tonight. well one and his brother. they noticed a plant i have that was half dead from the heat vent blowing at it - no where else to put it. so being the horticulture major that he is, the brother pruned my plant as my home teacher taught the lesson. and that is what you call the priesthood in action.


my mother would be proud.

awkward

some say awkward is a choice. like you choose to be awkward. i say the opposite. the awkward comes uninvited. the real choice is to decide not to be. why is it so much easier to just let it be? like tonight. oh my.
thank you for the supremely awkward and ironic moment that i can luckily laugh about.

against all odds

i think i was born in the wrong decade seeing how i don't remember any of the 80's but i love love super cheesy love songs from the 80's.  i think i can sing along with every song when the time life easy ultimate love songs infomercial comes on selling the 20 disc sets.  currently my fav is "against all odds" by the one and only phil collins.  and guess what singer was 'recommended' to me by youtube today when i got online?  the one and only phil collins.  against all odds was second on the list.  creepy how well it knows me.  


who doesn't love a good mullet on a balding man?  kidding.  but the song is amazing.
