bike rides, legolas, and rainy kitchens.

Thoughts that I'd like to share for the benefit of mankind:


bucket lists- I wanted to make a bucket list- mainly because it sounded fun and EVERYbody has one, but I was informed recently that "bucket list" is short for "things-i-want-to-do-before-i-kick-the-bucket list." Tacky. Kick the bucket? What a tacky name for a list. I always thought "bucket list" sounded at least somewhat classy or sophisticated. This ruined it for me. I might not even make one now.



but if i do i'll probably blog about it ;)

fruit pizza- mmmmmmmmmmmmmMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm. That's about the depth of my thought.


weekend!- I'm going on a fun friday/saturday trip for my birthday (which is on MONDAY!!! ahhhhhhHHHH!). Fun fun fun! Ben is surprising me with lots of secret surprises! We will be staying at his aunts house on friday--in SEPARATE rooms/floors. I just have to issue a minor disclaimer to all newbies reading this :) I love Jesus and do not want to do anything that dishonors Him in any relationship! I don't want a super fun filled great surprise weekend to sound like it's anything sad like that! Nope! It's happy!  :). Disclaimer over. Anyway, it will be fun fun fun! fun!

lord of the rings- I went on a bike ride with Austin and Jordan today. On this trip austin volunteered to pretend to be the elf from lord of the rings. He became so inspired we went back to their apartment and watched some of it. Austin's getting better at prancing and thoughtfully staring off into the distance.

cleaning- i don't wanna do it. I should have done it earlier. It's the main source of my current procratination. I'ma go to bed instead of cleaning. Maybe i'll do it tomorrow. :)

Serving- I want to be a servant. Not the still-kinda-try-and-get-your-own kind, but the legit, humble, Jesus kind. I don't want to worry about things being fair, or making sure I have what I need first. I want to love people in how I serve them, not just by saying that I do. I want my roommates (they are the best!), and friends, and acquaintences, and strangers to know their need is more important than my need. ...Which means their need needs to be more important in my heart too. Good thing Jesus is in the changing hearts business!


rain- it's raining right now. I love rain! I especially love falling asleep to it. I do not, however, love it when it rains in my apartment. It's also raining in my kitchen right now. We have bowls set out on the floor. I am not annoyed. I am speaking life over my not-annoyedness.

That's all I got- I think I procrastinated long enough to leave everything I should have done tonight for tomorrow morning, and just go to bed. :) Goodnight!!


p.s. this was supposed to be posted last night- in case the "raining right now" and "going to bed" confuses you :) follow this, instead of the time listed!
