I feel I have always had this tendency, but am just now realizing how much so…
My difficulty in accepting compliments. Maybe it’s a false sense of humility. Actually, I think I just get embarassed and don’t know what to say. And then, I can’t get a compliment without giving one back (and it’s sincere, but [...]
Quick self-observation
Tito, the asthmatic cat
I found out today that my parent’s cat Tito (who used to be my cat when I still lived at home) has asthma. It’s weird because the vet said he’s probably had it his whole life, we just never knew about it. He had to go to the vet because he was so short of [...]
Two weeks!
I’m currently listening to a CD my parents purchased for me from their trip to Ireland called “Champions of Ireland.” It’s very Irish. It came complete with a little leprochaun (who, by the way, has eaten all my food). Well, no, it’s just the bagpipes and pretty music. I’m enjoying the [...]
The irony of “My Space”
I set up a “My Space” account after lots of coercion, but I still can’t get a handle on it. My sister’s page states she has 127 friends! What? Also, I don’t know how to ask people to be “my friend” through this site. Eva left me a comment, and I tried to respond, but [...]
Exploding hot dogs
I made dinner for clients last night. They wanted hot dogs, but I refuse to boil them. So I popped them in the microwave and they just about popped right back out after I cooked them for too long. Fortunately, they did not completely get destroyed and were still edible.
This could be a great sermon [...]
No more pink!
I couldn’t handle the pink anymore. So sorry to all of its fans.
Keeping me drugged up, and other thoughts
I love my mom for several reasons, and this is the latest. She told me that when she comes up for the surgery she’s going to make sure that I am very drugged up so I don’t have a chance to feel much pain. (She’s a nurse practitioner and knows what she’s doing– just want [...]
Why, oh why?
Warning: This post is being written at 1am by a girl with nothing deep or even remotely interesting to say right now.
I was looking at Kandi’s photos from the camping retreat (very nice). Kandi, you’re a talented photographer. But why am I such a nerd? Almost everyone in the whole world can make normal camera [...]
Camping with my church
Today I came back from a weekend camping trip, our church retreat. I have to say that though I don’t camp and don’t enjoy sleeping in the outdoors, I had a wonderful time. Not only was the weather great (Heather did you pray?), spending time with the great people of Bluer outside the usual settings [...]
Fun with Eva
It was my sister’s B-Day on August 27th, and she spent one night up here in Minneapolis. We ate at the Old Spaghetti Factory (for sentimental reasons too long and boring for anyone to really want an explanation). Anyway, it was fun. It got me thinking about the day she was born. I was just [...]
