to sum up (it’s an inside joke)

i don’t know why it bugged me. or why it’s still bugging me. i am such a chick, i swear.

the first ever second saturday was fantastic. of course there was a little procrastinating ahead of time by leah and i, but once saturday was here, it was game time. we worked so well together and everything went very smoothly. our volunteers were amazing and really jumped right in, which i think made all the difference. even though i had only met most of these people two hours before, i was so proud of them on the way back to the church. it was so much fun to lead. we had kickball, hula hoops, pizza, and a make-your-own-ice-cream finale. there is a possibility that our monthly visits will combine with the monthly birthday parties metropolitan ministries already has. this means that we will take over the planning and organization of this event that everyone looks forward to. no pressure. and no more procrastinating.

friday night clayton and i hung out with nathan. julie is doing a rotation in daytona for 2 months, so we need to do some babysitting. we actually went to this bar in davis island to see an old friend of mine play with his band. but they didn’t end up coming on until after 11, and i had to wake up at 6 the next morning, so we didn’t get to see them play. i felt so lame saying goodbye at 10:30. supposedly they play the first friday of every month, so i have to go at least one more time and earn a little more street cred.

i had a little epiphany recently: i am way too smart to make 25, 00o dollars a year. hello, grad school.

but in the meantime (i.e. while clayton is in grad school), there is still a position open at my dad’s school for a middle school english teacher. i am debating whether or not to apply. my talk with tori scared me.

also included in this weekend was a lot, and i mean a lot, of football. florida state pains me to watch but i think i have a gene that forces me to (a win is a win, i guess), usf upset auburn resulting in the silent treatment from clayton for the next half hour, the dolphins loss was taken surprisingly well (probably because of how cute i looked in my new dolphins shirt clayton got me), and the bucs blew it in the second half. welcome to my weekends for the next 5 months.
