| big week......
1) got my first tattoo. ever. aaaaand they forever imprinted the ink on my body....upsideDOWN
2) i ran over a baby skunk. i chuckled to myself too, (one of my more sadistic moments), and minutes later whiffed this nasty permeated skunk stink, all in my car, getting on my clothes, and 4 days later...my car leather, and CLOTHES still stink
3) due to stressful event no. 1, i am not 'allowed' to wear shoes for 7 days, because of where my tattoo is (if anything rubs on it, it will rub right off mr tattoo said). obviously, my job does not allow for this. so, after a couple of days of: going grocery-shopping bearfoot, going to target barefoot, and walking around on campus *bearfoot*, i had to buy platform high heels (the only shoes i could find that dont touch). i now have blisters all over my feet, each step being painful.
4) while i was away one day, my trusty diamond-collared chihuahua ate my ipod and all its accessories. As in, i walked through the door, found my leather ipod case in tiny shreds, my ear phones *in pieces*(that part is truly amazing), and my ipod itself heavily chewed on. i couldnt decide if i was impressed and she deserved my kidney for being the man, or if i should beat her to a bloody pulp. i chose the later, but she attacked me, and well all the drama that ensues from a rebellious daughter/mother relationship.
5) i went to see a doctor for one of the first times EVER--and that was uncomfortable and weird. just, weird.
6) here is where the events get GOOD....i ate turkish delight for the first time ever. OH goodness...divine. i mean, God made this stuff for sure. have you ever had it? oh man i hope so. (its the stuff Edmund asks the white witch for in the Chronicles of Narnia?) ((there's actually no turkey in it...i didnt realize that till...well, yesterday when i had it)
7) I ate fudura for the first time ever...its a mediterranean dish. i feel cool saying that, like im sophisticated or something.
8) i found out ive been wearing the wrong size of clothes my whole life...thanks to a measuring tape and a sales attendant
9) warning: this is not for the faint at heart: in a moment of vulgar curiosity, i wondered what organic peanut butter and italian cheese tasted like together.....so, i, ate a cheese and peanut butter sandwich..and LIKED it! as a matter of fact, i might do it again
Expounding on the tatto
the tattoo experience was fun, my 40year old awesome awesome friend came with me, it didnt hurt for even a sec...i actually didnt believe the guy that he had started. i really had a good time getting one. my tattoo artist was adorable! he was so sweet i wanted to share the gospel with him. he had huge dimples and was from singapore, his first language was mandarin. he had a great portfolio, he's a really good artist, i just didnt pay attention when he transferred the image....so, it was not the way i wanted it. i got hebrew letters spelling 'the excellent wife'. meaning, the attributes of the woman in proverbs 31 are the character traits i want to pursue my entire life...a woman who spends more time on holiness than charm and physical beauty which is fleeting...
oh and superquick microwaved update on life since december: moved out of the ghetto when my boyfriend seriously almost took a golf club to my neighbors head for asking me to 'hook up with him' (his name was bubba...he said my boy would never have to know...for some reason, that just didnt do the trick for me). after that shanannigan, i saw how much it was affecting my loved ones and not only me, so i moved back to the safe, suburbian, upper-middle class supression of a city, and i am sleeping better now....
oh and also, me and the boy got back together since i last wrote...that's an entry in itself....it's amazing how much someone can change in 4 months, because man, he did a complete 180...i dont really know what was up with him before.....i know im way more mature now too, but, his attitude, his ability to be a man and initiate and step up to every ocassion....hm who knew God changed people, when people couldnt change people.
oh and i finally got the chocolate martini i had been craving for too long...
going to 'ointment' my new tattoo
all my love,
cindy

| the day i found a cochroach in the ghetto.i found my first cochroach today. (in my apartment/hole) it was quite an event. i wanted to celebrate, with a chocolate martini mind you but im a missionary and missionaries dont drink alchohol of course. but it was exciting. i wish my little pup Cocoa could have been here to celebrate the occasion with me, she would have enjoyed it. but sadly she's on furlough in mcallen with my mom. (since im going to east asia next week for 2weeks i couldnt bring her home after thanksgiving). its amazing how much i dont miss taking her out to go potty in my ghetto neighborhood. but i do miss making her dance on her hind legs to cheesy mariah carey songs or to her all time fave, (and probably her theme song) the mortal combat theme song.
ps today, i rediscovered how glad i am that i am not old yet, in stage of life at least. as i told my best friend today and will now tell you, please shoot me if i ever get excited about pots, pans, and other 'pampered chef' matierials, or the cooking channel. perhaps i will be like Paul and be single always because i just do not have the slightest desire for the domestic. i am okay with that. as a matter of fact, just go ahead and strangle me with the blender cord if you do see hints of betty crocker arising in me....because it will not actually be me, it will have been aliens who have taken over my body and are using it for somekind of evil plan to take over the world......blah why am i so different than most girls? | | |
| im not going to lie. i could use a chocolate martini right now. | | |
| Instead of going to renfest today (rennaisance festival), i am stuck here taking an online defensive driving course that is taking me MORE than the required 7 hours.
i decided i have got to be the world's expert on defensive driving courses. is there a record, i need to look that up because i bet i have it schooled with the number of tickets ive had in the past 4 years alone.
i am watching these videos and i am wondering how sad it is i missed the 80s. what a sexy decade. men with bangs. doesnt get hotter than middle aged men with bangs.
i think why its taking me so long is im multi tasking. dang facebook. i am her slave.
hmm. dilemma: it takes 4-6 weeks to get my driving record from austin, texas. my ticket says tho that the certificate AND records are due in 2 weeks. oh dear. i wonder if they would give me another extention? Mexican lady at the municipal court likes me. Maybe i can try to get in her line...
only THREE days in my WEEK before i have to go out of town again!!! grrr!!! Just as ministry was getting REALLY productive.....and im on zero sleep and i have to drive 16 hours in the next week to get to tyler to cs to mcallen.....is this video done loading yet? i am so sick of watching videos about trains smooshing cars. it is obvious to all of God's children that trains smoosh cars.
i am reading a very very interesting book on the demise of roman civilization. gosh i love nerdyness. (and middle aged men with bangs dont forget) ((not really, i dont really)) its a really really good book, gives me so much perspective on what life was like
so i just failed level 7 with the trains. i need to stop xanga ing and pay more attention. so bye.
oh wait ps--IM GOING TO EAST ASIA in 2 weeks!! FI-nALLY!! oh buddy im excited! (let me know if you would like to support my trip) oh gosh i still have 7 stages left out of 15 and its almost midnight...oyvey and ive got to finish it today okaybye | | |
