I want to name my daughter Marley.
heyyy heyyyyyyy. Tante Carisse bought Josie a cell phone holder entitled "Sexy Talk" that looks like a black boustier corset for Christmas last year.
Anyway, I'm at Josie's house in A-ville. Carley is in the room yonder and Josie is cueing up "Quit Playing Games With My Heart"........oh wait, no. Change of heart. She's singing "Breathe" by Faith Hill to me and Ed (on the phone).
So yeah.....here we go. Stuebenville was this past weekend and wow....I've just realized a lot of things I wasn't seeing prior to Steubenville. And....If I had to compare the 2 years I've been......it was definitely a different experience...I was at a TOTALLY different place in my life....I was focused on the wrong things...wrong people(exception of a few I was REALLY focused on)....I actually had no clue where to go or who to turn to. I was going through some pretty rough family problems....and last year truly healed me. But this year.....I don't know....I knew what Stueb was like and what to expect but I really tried hard to forget all my expectations and just let Him fill me.
Friday: bus ride was swell....got in coliseum....crapola, I forgot where we sat!! I'm trying to visualize what happened....Ah yea....it's coming back to me. Friday night...I cried more than I expected to. I don't really know why I thought I wasn't going to get emotional Friday night....I think it was because when I left for stueby....I was on bad terms with this one person. I got to thinking.....Man...how did we get like that? Why am I feeling anger and bitterness and jealousy and regret and just all these mixtures of emotions?! What did I do wrong and what should I do to fix it? Well.....in the hotel that night, Ragan totally spoke to me in a way that no one has, ever. She gave me possibly the best advice I have ever received from ANYONE. So, I wennt with what she told me to do Saturday.....and it lifted me from so much pain. It was amazing.
Saturday: ehmmm mass was cold. We were right under the AC. Jammed out with Dane at the Krucifyd show! He sang one song....and that one song was reallll nice. Heh, made sure to NOT break my glasses in a mosh pit this year. Saturday afternoon......cool talk with Fr. Dave! He was my favorite speaker of the weekend. Adoration was beautiful.....I really loved seeing this boy sitting in front of me...totally just unfold. He was clearly uncomfortable and weirded out at the beggining but just started to melt for Christ during the night. I loved witnessing that.
Sunday: Tired tired tired. Next year, I'm getting more sleep. But it was a great mass. Took a picture with YA PAAAAT!!!!!
man, too tired....going chil with Joz.
