This week has been a blur. I keep mixing up which day it is and it messes me up for hours.  EEsh.

On a side note:
I went to WC with my sister. I met one of her professors who was really cool.
I went to the movies with Brenda and saw Duplicity. It's not quite what I was expecting but I still really enjoyed the flick.


Matt's car was involved in an accident yesterday. It got hit while he was at work, and it's most likely totaled. He like JUST bought that thing. I feel so bad. Poor Matt. The woman claims that she fell asleep at the wheel. At 3 in the afternoon. wtf?

Her insurance better cover everything.


 
 

Today was Wednesday???

 
twitter song! 03/24/2009
 

Ingrid Michaelson made a Twitter song. It is fantastic and totally made my day, it's so cute.  http://www.ingridmichaelson.com/news/

 
 

I'm reading this book "Sex, God" by Rob Bell. It's a fascinating book, and I'm reading this one chapter at the moment called "worth dying for". It's really touching my heart because I see so much of what he's talking about, in so much of the world. It's really heart-breaking. I watch young girls and friends struggle with this, and I watch boys not live up to how they are called to act as men.

Here are some excerpts from what I'm talking about:

(women)
"Some girls only know how to relate to men by making a series of transactions. They want to be wanted, and the man wants, well, the man wants what lots of men want. So they trade. Essentially they strike a deal with men, time and time again.

Some women learn at an early age how to negotiate. They need to be loved, to be validated, to be worth something, and they discover that by giving a little of themselves to a boy, they get what they need in return. ...Sex becomes a search, and so they go from relationship to relationship, looking for what they already have. (In Christ)


You don't need a man by your side to validate you as a woman. You already are loved and valued. You're good enough exactly as you are. You have limitless worth and value. If you embrace this truth, it will affect every area of life, especially your relationship with men."


(men)
"Perhaps this is why the text (specific scripture in the bible he's referencing) talks about the man dying for the woman. This can be terrifying for a man. Comminting to a woman for life is going ot demand courage, fidelity, and strength he may not know he has. This is why some men take such pride in their sexual conquests. They're desperately running from their fear that they don't have what it takes to aly down their lives for a woman. Sleeping with lots of women gives them the feeling of being a man without actually having to be one."

The end product. Everybody was grabbing my tail. It was kind of funny. I was totally the best dinosaur there!

 
spring! 03/21/2009
 

Yesterday was the first day of spring. That means FREE Ritas Waterice! o yis. I went to DC and picked up zach, rachel and nicole, and took them to get some flavored ice good-ness. It was a little chilly outside. But worth the wait.

I've had a ton of computer work to do. And I've been working on my portfolio.

The grandparents got a new car. It's pretty.

I took a nap yesterday and it was wonderful.

Matt and I got Tony Lukes for dinner. Delicious!




He's my favorite. :)
He's a punk.
But he's my punk.


I was so productive today! I finished my dinosaur hoodie (it's awesome. I'll post a pic later) Did my laundry, cleaned the kitchen, took the doggies for a ride and a nice walk, picked up my room a little (not a lot) and spent some time with Matt. <3

So I'm trying to make a sort-of dinosaur costume out of a red hoodie. I'm not exactly a sew-er.. This will be interesting.

 
 

And though I cannot see You
And I can't explain why
Such a deep, deep reassurance
You've placed in my life

We cannot separate
'Cause You're part of me
And though You're invisible
I'll trust the unseen

These are lyrics from Christian group, I was listening to this beautiful song and felt so connected to it once again.
