Not helpful in flirting personality trait:

I totally identify with this comic.

Hmmm...

Is it okay that I still want to be a paleontologist?

This is a true story...

So you know those cheesy Relief Society object lessons? Yeah, I had one and it goes a little something like this:

My turn signals have not been working since I've been home from Arizona, which was approximately one month ago. I haven't really had time to figure out what was wrong, plus I was worried it was just one more thing I couldn't afford to fix on my car so I have been avoiding it.

Tim checked my fuses on Tuesday to see if that was the problem, and he figured out that the fuses were good. This conclusion would lead one to believe that the car is dying, or has some crazy electrical problem. So this worried me.

Wednesday night, I was on the phone on my way to my Temple shift, flicking my turn signals out of habit. As I turned my blinker to turn into the Temple parking lot, my blinkers started working! Okay...this was a miracle to me. I started screaming, and then I started crying, felt stupid, but kept crying.


Lesson Learned: Heavenly Father knows me, and cares about the small stuff. Also when we do what we're supposed to He takes care of us. And a lot of other things too, but I can't spoon feed you everything. I mean come on.

What time is it?

yeah, it's 2am.

A do do do, a dah dah dah, is all I want to say to you...

I should be catching up with homework, but I'm not. I should wake up early to go running because I want to to that, but I don't. I should return phone calls more promptly, but I won't. I should care more about some things, but I don't. I should take the T, the bus, and other forms of public transit, but I don't want to. I should believe in the good things too, but...I'm trying. I should choose not to indulge in retail therapy, but I do anyway. I should drink more water, but I don't. I should drink a lot less diet coke, but I'll never. I should wash my hair more, but why? I should clean out my car, but I'll continue to put that off. I shouldn't hate that I just ate 6 fig newtons, but I do. I should recognize the talents I've been given instead of envying those of others, but I don't. I should believe more in myself, but...I hope to. I should stop daydreaming and get back to work, but...I won't.

Just a few things I'm grateful for today...

A. Snowboarding.

B. Sleeping through the whole night. Seriously I woke up in the same position as I went to sleep. Amazing. Never happens. When I checked the clock expecting to see 4am, I saw 8am. I couldn't help but smile and then the song "all through the night..." (Cyndi Lauper) started running through my head. I like sleep.

C. The Priesthood. So because of said glorious snowboarding, my knee has been a little overworked and really swollen since Saturday. I got a blessing last night, after a long day of puffily hobbling everywhere. This morning I can hardly tell there was anything wrong. My knee is nearly back to normal. I like Heavenly Father, and the boys who hold the priesthood.

D. Gchat. When live just can't wait until I go to lunch or get off work so I can make a phone call, there is gchat, the life saver. I like King Google.
