Ah, the beauty of Kristen

Well folks, the title here is not just an obsession over one's girlfriend. She saved my butt today from having a relapse of missing class. I was supposed to call her when I woke up to make sure she was getting up. Lo and behold it was I that needed a wakeup call. For some reason, beknownst to none save God Himself, my alarm clock makes no noticeable noises to my sleeping consciousness. Well, anyway I owe her a never-ending debt of gratitude and love (which I will enjoy paying back slowly over a very long period of time).

I hate my job! Well, more of an office space hate than an actual, Al Flowers working for Pepsi Cola hate. But at lunch today--one of the few blessed hours my honey and I can spend focusing mainly on each other during the week--I shared this malcontent with Kristen and she encouraged me to find a place where I will be more happy. Happy with my job? Is this a goal to be held? Is it attainable? I think perhaps it just might be...with her encouragement of course. So this week I'm going to do a couple things: one depending on the other. I'm gonna invade Dr. Bill Sprunks office, when the old boy is in, not gallivanting around canada, and ask him about internships for english majors. Then if it's a bust, I'm gonna do some feet beating and head over to the Palladium or any other place that stinks of writing.

What makes me think I'll attain such good fortune? Well, I don't know. But it would be presumptuous of me to believe automatically that changing jobs would be the best thing for me when there is a God in heaven who knows best. So you can be sure I'm going to bring the issue up at Mishkan Daviyd on Saturday and get some words from the Lord. If He says "stay," I'm Fido. If he says "go," I'm Mwambee Imbawee (please don't take this as racism, my sociology professor told me that people from Africa have more muscle fibers conducive to running)! But I am confident that Papa knows best. I just want to be obedient to His word and commandments in all circumstances regardless of blessing or not! Although He said He would bless those who are obedient to His Torah! Regardless, like the three Jews and old Nebuchadnezzar (or however you spell that guy's name), I know God is able to provide...and if He doesn't in the way I expect, it doesn't matter. I'll be obedient anyway!
