Today was really good. I had a fun day today! I woke up and wasn't feeling very well though. I still am not feeling good. But the events of the day made me forget about my nausiated swimming head and churning stomach. So anyway, after waking up I still had to get ready for my first class today and head on over to the education building all groggy like. But I survived and made it to class without falling down any stairs. Once I got to the class and sat down I was ok though and just kind of zombied through that class. After that was over though I headed back to my room. I was going to skip my second class today so I could go pick up Allie and Britt from thier house and bring them back to campus for a special Chapel service today. The class I skipped was that other computer class of mine that I probalby don't really need so I don't think it would hurt me too much... It probalby hurt the rest of the class though because nobody was there to answer questions. =). But anyway I dropped off my book bag at my dorm and then headed on over to thier house and picked them up. I got out of the car and was about to knock on the door but they must have saw me because they were coming out already. (I had factored in wait time in the schedule but I dind't have to use it that was pretty cool those girls are great!). So we were able to get to campus about 30 minutes before the service even had to start. I also figured I would have to spend about 10-15 minutes parking. But instead I risked getting a ticket and parked in a spot I shouldn't have for the hour during chapel. Luckily there were no yellow pieces of paper on my car after it was over. But anyway. Since we had like 30 minutes to spare before the service started we walked to the Demos Hall and looked at all the Missions displays that they have up all week for Missions emphasis week. They were pretty cool. So anyway during chapel today Elizabeth Elliot came and spoke. It was really cool. She had some good stories to tell and experiences to share. It was a really good service. Once the service was over I grabbed the things I needed for work and then I took the girls back home. I stayed at thier house the rest of the time for lunch and hanging out time until I had to be at work at 1:00. Worked was a little hard on me today since I wasn't feeling too well. I have to stand up most of the time at work and I kept almost falling over. It was hard to make eye contact with customers and stuff too since I was feeling all funky. But I made it through the day. It did seem to go faster then normal today too so that made things nicer. My sister and Katie sent me a birthday present today too! I got it in the mail at work today. They sent me some really nice new clothes. THANKS GUYS!! My mom has a package on the way too but it hasn't gotten here yet unfortuantly. Maybe it will end up being perfect timing for my B-day tomorrow. So anyway.. right after work I hurried over to Ron and Betty Allen's house for dinner tonigh. Betty made this awsome dish. I can't remember what it was called though unfortunatly, but it had beef and rice and romain noodles, and cream of chicken, plus all kind of other goodies in it. I can't really descibe it besides it was good. Then she had salad and corn bread to top it off.. All very good food! I ended up staying there with them till around 10:30ish. I've mentioned this before in past blogs about them, but for those just joining.. they have this really cool Dalmation named Einstine. He provided lots of the entertainment for the evening. It was a lot of fun. They want me to come over again soon and bring friends w/me next time.. so if you are a friend and are reading this right now let me know and I'll see if I can make it happen. Two words (Great cook!). So anyway.. I ended up getting back to my dorm sometime around 11:00. I had to park all the way on the other side of campus (I had enough parking luck for the day) so thats why it took so long. (No, they don't live a half hour away.) So anyway appon arrival at my abode I took away my away message.. then BLAMMO like 15 IM's come shooting at me. It was pretty crazy for the first 10-15 minutes.. then it started to die down. I was able to work though the chaos for awhile though. I had some stuff to do before tomorrow too so I still had to get it all done. I needed to call my sister though and thank her and katie for the wonderful thoughtfulness. It was good to talk to them, I don't get to do that too often on the phone. But anyway after I got off the phone with them I worked on a couple more things while Jessica and I chatted for awhile. Jess and I got engrossed in a pretty good coverstaion tonight. But we both got tired so off to bed we go. I just have to post this account of today and then get ready for bed and I will be off to that sweet state of mind blackout awareness.. oh! gotta love it.
