I had a meeting with Dr. McChesney this morning at 9:30, to pump him for info about Rollins College (where I have applied for a job at in Orlando), haha... well, you know, just to see if he knew anyone there and such. Even though he didn't really have any contacts there, he is still writing me a letter of recommendation and sending it out today, so that has to be somewhat impressive, right?!
I had prayed the whole way there that God would just turn that time into something fruitful. Which is a little unusual, just because I find it difficult to pray specifically like that a lot of times, but what can I say, I was feelin bold. While I was slightly disappointed that he didn't have more contact info... it turns out that Mrs. Booth, his secretary, really does like me (I thought she hated me, long story) and is a believer! We talked about God for like an hour and it was just so encouraging to be able to catch up with her and share my heart with her and listen to her share hers.
So, I say all that to make a point. I had prayed that God would make my time fruitful, and I meant by letting it be that Dr. McChesney would have contacts and could really get me the job. And instead, God chose to answer my prayer in a completely different and unexpected way! Awesome.
Do you like sushi? I don't. I have been trying to broaden my taste buds' horizons the past year or so, but everytime I try sushi it makes me want to vomit. Alas, I am going to eat it tonight anyway, simply for the company. Maybe, just maybe, tonight will be the night that my taste buds (who each have a tiny little brain of their own, might I add) decide to jump on the raw fish bandwagon. One can never be too sure.
I unintentionally (seriously) flirted with the guy behind the register at... well... that discount grocery store across 31... I don't even know the name of it, ha... and he gave me a $4.00 casserole recipe book for 99 cents! I was bitching about the price in line and he was like, "Don't worry about it girl, I'll hook you up." See, I didn't use my womanly powers of manipulation either.
I LOVE CASSEROLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I want to get a pet and name it Butt. Just for laughs. Poor Butt.
Butt Dossey.
That's what it would say on his vet bill.
Haha. Butt Dossey.
Kind of has a ring to it.
When do college night tickets go on sale? Sara, you seriously need to be hooking us up with those.
I guess I should go to the alumni stuff for homecoming week? I dunno. I got some thing about a ChiO Alumni thing on the hall??? Have they always done that? I don't remember ever having done that, but I could be wrong. I don't want to be the old has-been up there though. I'll consider it, but that's all I can promise.
Like a tight pair of pants, I'm ready to rip.
