CHRISTmas! and the useless things that dance in my head.
Seriously, I lovvvvvvvvvve Shel Silverstein. Love. For Christmas, I received two cds (A Light in the Attic and Where the Sidewalk Ends) filled with several of his poems/songs. When my brother and I were young, we used to listen to them as we lay in bed (cassettes, back then). They're still awesome. I'm gonna sing 'em to my grandkids. Really. Just wait.
What else happened today? Well, I went to church. That was nice. Then, I opened up some presents. Then I ate some waffles. Some sausage. Then I played scrabble with the family. Then I napped. Then I ate some ham, potatoes, and corn. Then I watched my movie, "The Point". It's animated, from the 70s, narrated by Ringo Starr (more childhood memories). Worked on a short story I'm writing. Then... I talked to Heather.
AND THEN (as if any of that was even very eventful), I went sledding with Heather, Burt, and Quinn. That was fun. Swang on some swings (Is "swang" a word?). Had a slurpee. Came home.
Since I first read about it in the Bible, I've been thinking about a somethin' somethin'. Kind of interesting. Now you see, some aren't meant to marry. Who though? Am I meant to marry or does God have something else planned? Can I know? Yeah... so I think about THAT sometimes. I hope I'm not the guy.
And... if I AM meant to marry, can I skip the dating part? Is that a plan that's up for grabs? My mom asked me about dating the other day. She asked me if I liked anybody. Anybody she knows. She wanted to know if I was scared. I think she's afraid I'm lonely... I love my mom. A lot of the time, I just think, "I dated once, and it didn't work out. I hurt a girl, and I never want that to happen again. No more dating for me." So... it's kind of hard to date when you're half-afraid. And... I don't want to spend every second of every day thinking about the girl I love. That could happen very easily. So I'm afraid of that too. God doesn't want that. And then I think, good Christian girl? Well that should HELP my relationship with God. My mom thinks so too... I miss my family.
I need a job. Community Village. Maybe Saginaw Rescue Mission. SVSU? That would be fine as well. I may have to apply at Sam's...
Church in the morning. Christmas with the Webers. Saginaw? We'll see.
That's right. I typed in caps. I told you I've been writing...
My brain is stupid. Thanks for listening, LJ.
