Blind Date

Yesterday around noon I walked through the revolving door of the California Pizza Kitchen. I was supposed to meet my mentor who had just texted to inform me she'd be about 10 minutes late.
The hostest asked me "how many?"
I responded with "two".
"A gentelman?" the hostest questioned with a slight intrique in her voice.
I kindly told her no, and she proceeded to make a comment about a gentleman who was waiting for someone. Jokingly she said she'd "hook us up" if I was up for a blind date.
"You know that's not such a bad idea" I thought to myself half heartedly. We then chatted about speed dating and blind dates as she led me to my table. When Maybe arrived I told her the story and directed her attention to the man in a white and red stripped dress shirt on the opposite side of the restaurant. He was now sitting with an older man (probably his father).
"You should have gone for it" she joked.
It could have been fun, maybe next time I will. I'm up for a random blind date. :)

Old Spice

Hello Ladies!
Look at your man
Now back at me
Now back at your man
Now back at me
Sadly…he isn’t me
But if he stopped using lady scented body wash and switched to Old Spice he could smell like me
Look down
Back up
Where are you?
You’re on a boat
With a man your man could smell like
What’s in your hand?
Back at me
It’s an oyster with two tickets to that thing you love
Look again
The tickets are now diamonds
Anything is possible when your man smells like old spice and not a lady
I’m on a horse

Smell Like a man, man!
Old Spice

Looking Back

I just looked at my post from Feb 5th and it's interesting to me how life has changed since then. One thing I know is that God is still with me, and all I want is to be close to him. I just want to read my Bible, I guess it's because He has to get me through. I read Psalm 17 this morning and it was really relavant. I went to chapel today, with the intent not to "go to chapel" but just to "be at chapel" to be in God's presence and rest and abide. Today is the first day of Lent and the chapel message was deeply rooted in what I've needed to hear. Everything has been. Church on Sunday was about how we spend God's time and also how Jesus is the perfect Valentine. Monday my professor's opening prayer for our class was 100% about my life. He's here. He's faithful. I know most of what I"m experiencing is strong spiritual attack and I pray everyday for Satan not to have a foothold in my life. After chapel today, God sent this girl name Lauren who has been such a secret encouragement to me. She's such a good and true friend and when I saw her walk by I knew it was because God had directed her directly to me at that exact momment.

PS in the last few hours (since my last post) I quit my TA job...one less thing. Ahhhhh....

Something's Going On

I don't know what it is, but something must be up. Within the past 12 hours I have had three friends contact me to see how I'm doing. None of them really had anything to talk about, they all live in a different state, and I haven't seen any of them in over a month. One called me, which is weird because we just talked on the phone 2 days ago, one facebook messaged me, and I haven't talked to him in probably a year, and the third texted me at 3 am. Why is this strange. Well, one was filled with encouraging verses and words, another just said it was on his mind for the whole evening that he should see how I was doing. I think God is trying to tell me something, but I'm not sure what. Maybe just that he loves me, or maybe something bad is about to happen. I hope this is not the case, but there's a possiblity I guess. This week has been one of the best weeks of the year and I don't feel in need of love and encouragement like I have in weeks past. Not that I don't appreciate it, or "need" it all the time, but it's just an interesting phenomenon.
