Can I Just Say?

Can I just say that random roadtrips are fun, even if you just drive to the next city and back. It starts off by AB, one of my friends, calling me and asking if I wanted to head down to Chatty and have some fun. She drove all the way out to my house (I live in the BoonDocks) to get me, and we headed out. We got onto I-75 and drove til we got stuck in some traffic, where I began to rattle off about being indecisve about having kids when I get married. We finally got out of the jam and kept driving. Then, she came up out of the blue and said, "Do you mind if we stop to get me something to eat I'm craving Olive Garden." Of course, I agreed, I mean the OG has the BEST breadsticks ever. So she drops me off out front so I can put my name in the hat. The wait was about 40 minutes. yeah, they were super busy. As we waited, i explained to her my obsession with TWILIGHT. We finally got a table and sat down. As we waited, she decided what to get, while I told her that I was sure that I wasn't hungry. Our waitress was pretty rude and unwelcoming. In fact, she told us several times that they were out of breadsticks, when clearly, there were people around us who had bread. Then she told other customers that there was a customer who was upset because of the no bread situation and said that they could leave if they wanted. UGH how rude can one person be. AB finally got the check, and lo and behold the girl had charged her for the FREE salad and breadsticks!!!! Five extra dollars!!!!!! So, as I went to the car to get it warmed up, she spoke to the manager about the rude little girl. He offered her a free meal next time she's there and to refund her five dollars, but the system was down, so she left without it. Also, while AB was standing there waiting on the manager, the rude little girl told another waitor that, "That girl just stiffed me on the tip!" When she noticed AB standing there, she just turned and walked away, AB said the blood drained from her face. HAHA that's what you get!! So we made our way to Old Navy to shop around. She bought a few things. We were going to go to Target then, she changed her mind. So, we heade home, she brought me all the way back to my house, and now I'm here!!!

Just Another Day

In my heart, I know things are meant to be well. Like the Holidays, for instance. These days shouldn't be spent arguing over petty things, as my family does, just about every year, it never fails. You should be glad you are breathing and that you have a family to spend it with. Yes, I am happy with the gifts given to me, but I would be even happier if Christmas could come one year without arguing and family dismay. It breaks my heart to see my family shatter to bits over one person. Days come and go, but days spent being unhappy with people, especially family, seem to make a person bitter towards the family gatherings at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

I am happy with my gifts, I got everything that I wanted, except one thing. That is love. Not only from family, but I wanted my one and only to come to me this year. But, as I read on my friends blog, maybe my turn will come around next year. If God sees fit that is.

Christmas Time Is Here

Well, Christams is just two days away. I am soo looking forward to Christmas morning because...I am hopefully getting a bracelet that I asked for about 5 months ago...Yeah so i really hope I get it. I am exced to see what my two Nieces will thinkg of their Christmas gifts. I think they will like them...Anyhow, yeah...This is short and sweet.

Nothin' Much To Say

I really don not have much to say, except that I hope that God gives me my big Christmas gift this year...I sure have waited a long time for it.

On a lighter note, I am lovin' this weather right now at this moment. I hope that it stays this way, only, maybe let it get way colder...

I am sooo hungry, and there is a Christmas party later, I'm not sure if I want to go though. I really don't have anything to wear, PLUS it's for the Sunday school class at my church that I'm in. That mainly consists of married adults. Hmmm, should I stay, or should I go? Another off beat fact about the party, it's at one of the teacher's house, who, by the way, has a gorgeous son, who unfortunately has a girlfriend...Oh well...

Anyhow, now that I'm done rambling, I'm gonna go now.

Muddy Water

I'd like to start off this with a story... As I pulled into the driveway at my house, I noticed the amount of mud that has accumulated over the past fewdays from the rain that has decided to take perch over Tennessee. I got out of my car, took a step, and sank at least 3 inches. HAAHAHAHA. Funny thing is, I had on Chacos. Which happen to be river sandals...Yeah my feet became nasty wet with mud. EEWWW I laughed...

Today, I recieved a call from the director of the ministry I volunteer with. She wanted to know if I wanted to come and join her and another volunteer to do some things at the OFFICE. So, later this afternoon, I arrived, only to find out that it was time for me to do the ever famous "Berries and Cream" dance that I love to do for people(it's a commercial for Starburst), on a live feed from the ministry's blog...HAHA it was fun. Anyhow, as the three of us continued to talk to blog readers, we laughed and stuff, like girls do. Anna and I decided to sword fight with not swords, but giganticnormous flowers that stand in the front room. Savvy, eh? Yes, so, first we jousted, then we 'fought' in slow motion. It was a jolly good time...Jolly, what a fantabulous word to say. JOLLY. Then they, being the blog readers that were watching us, to ask us about boys. I invented PRETEND BF from Italy, who shall remain nameless. AB then asked about any boy news, and what I should have said was that, Apparently I have a guy, God just haven't given him to me yet. Fun times.

I'm now gonna give a shout out to AB and Anna...See you ladies in the A.M.

Christmas

So, lately I've been struggling with the fact that I have yet to meet "the One." I know that I'm young and have plenty of time, but at times it feels as though I'm running out of time. I've told God several times what I want in a man, but I have to tell myself over and over again that it's not what I want it's what He wants for me. I have even made a list. Haha I'll share the list later. Anyhow, I feel that I'm getting ready to meet "him" whoever he may be. I know one thing, I'm ready.

::::DROWNING::::

Can't you see I'm going under?
Sinking like a concrete block
Crying out, only to be left unheard
Have you left me?
Should I even ask?
The pressure building up
My chest begins to compress
Lungs collapsing
Can't breathe
Are you going to save me?
Or let me fall to my death
On the black Ocean floor?
I hear your voice
Calling out my name
Is it real?
Or am I dying?
You get closer,
I can feel your arms around me
I feel the pressure start to lift
Slowly you bring me from the depths
You didn't leave me
You came to my rescue
I'm out of the watery depths now
My lungs burning for oxygen
Stable enough to breathe on my own
You raise me to my feet
Only, this time, you pick me up and carry me
