my week.
I just wanted to write about the stuff that happened this week. It seems I don’t usually update much on what goes on anymore. Mostly because it’s the same stuff day in and day out, and a big part of me likes it that way.
Anyways, I’ll start off with Sunday. The new addition of the Eastview wing looks awesome. It does seem like they didn’t have to go to that extreme to make a new gym/church congregation, but it’s cool nonetheless. They could’ve just built a huge wooden shack and it still’ve been a church. After Fuel was the barn dance at this one guy’s place. It was fun, and I could tell everyone else was having a good time, too. Yaay ping-pong!
On Monday, I went back to Eastview cause Mandy set up an event to play volleyball. I haven’t played in so long and I love the game, so of course I went. Dave Whaley came too, but just to watch cause he can’t do a lot of activity. Mandy and Jen showed up, but they were the only ones, so volleyball was canceled. Ohh well, stuff happens, sorry it didn’t turn out. So Dave and I went bowling and I set my new high score of a whopping 162. Go me!
On Wednesday, did my usual bowling with Lonnie, Joe, Chris, and Annie. Annie almost beat me on the last game, it was awesome. I was a little sad cause Jen wasn’t there. Turned out she hurt her ankle at the WindJammer last week. She stepped into a hole and it was dark outside. That was also the day that they said a huge storm was coming, so I didn’t go that time. Sorry. She’ll most likely come back to work by next Wednesday, and I’ll be happy to see her.
On Thursday, went to Jeremiah’s to hang out with him and his girlfriend Sandra. We watched Saw 3 and Wicked Little Things. The latter was just kinda funny cause Jeremiah and I kept making fun of it. In the movie, there’s a mom and two daughters that go to an old house she inherited. But in the mountains a bunch of kids died in the coal mines and as an act of revenge turned into zombies. Anyways, the youngest daughter is holding an old doll and the Mother asks where she got it. Then I said, “Mary gave it me” in a girl’s voice. Then the daughter said the exact same thing, which excited and freaked me out at the same time. It was just one of those totally predictable horror movies.
Yesterday I tried to get some friends together to see Fantastic Four. I ended up going by myself as usual, but actually I don’t mind it that much. Actually, the one that I went to, I ran into three old church friends so it worked out better than expected. Sometimes its strange yet comforting that you’re never alone, and that you always find good company, even if it wasn’t the kind you expected to find. The movie was really good. We talked for a bit afterwards, and went home.
Worked this morning with Sam. We had to make extra doughs yesterday and today because of the special Olympics going on. We ate there after work and just hung out. The table next to us had a bunch of people that had already been in the special Olympics yesterday. One of the guys looked at me, so I made eye contact. He said hi, so I say said hi. Then he showed me his ribbon and medal that he won yesterday. I didn’t try to ignore him, in fact, I made an effort to keep the conversation going before they all had to leave. One of the ladies that escorted them turned to me and said thank you, probably just for taking an interest in the guy’s achievements. I don’t usually try to brighten up someone’s day just by talking or listening to them.
Anyways, that’s my week in a nutshell. I’ll be at Fuel tomorrow to see everyone again, and maybe try to make another new friend I did with Landre a couple weeks ago. I just have to do more than, “hi, I’m Dave, what’s your name?” I know it doesn’t sound that hard, and truthfully its not. It’s just how it usually goes at Fuel. After all, you only get a whole five minutes to meet-and-greet, and you can’t make an instant friend from just doing that.
ohh yeah, I get to see Nichole tomorrow in the morning. After that, she'll be gone all next week, and I will be saddened. every time I see her she says she loves me and it brightens my day.
