    right now there is a city house inspector at my house and i am listening to him tell my landlord all the ridiculous crap about what needs to change and what needs to get fixed. and he thinks that our restaurant booth on the porch is no good. that alone is enough for me to not like this guy, besides the the fact that he is a city inspector. basically he's the man, and we need to stick it to him. honestly i just don't like the way the city can tell me that i have to fit into their rules. is it my house? yes. then i can do what i want.

    in other news, i've been thinking about a particular girl a bit. a bunch of people told me that i need to ask her out, or something. i've never really been in this situation specifically. it kind of weirds me out a little. because the two of us get along really well. we definitely have a lot of fun when we're together. she's respectable, loves Jesus. her life isn't falling apart. this would be the best relationship i've been in, probably ever. i think that's part of what freaks me out about it. hey, and she's cute.

    i don't even remember.

    where's my LJ?
    i am unpleases with these LJ changes, i can't find "my LJ" any longer, and i don't like it.

    i found that my favorite way of blogging is to write just enough about stuff that i feel like i've said something great, but not enough to really have said anything imporant. still guarding myself.

    but there is too much going on to post any of that right now. the room, has people, people good for talking with.

    stuck in the darkness
    yesterday i had a meeting with acey at 11:00 AM. chris and i got up and drove down to camp. it was 11:00 when i walked in the ghost town of an office at camp. "interesting," i thought to myself as i proceeded to the back of the office where the stairs are located, "i wonder where everybody is." i descended the dark stairwell and opened the basment door, pitch black surrounded me as i entered the hall and moved toward acey's office. hit the door, reached in and flicked on the light...
    so i sat in acey's office for about 15 minutes, ran through some of the mail i had picked up at my parents house a few minutes earlier on my way south to camp. after having discovered still no signs of life i decided to head to the kitchen where chris had gone directly. picking out one of the prime people beating materials one can always find lying around the camp office i stepped out the back door and looked across the barren wasteland that lay between camp office and the dining hall.
    a few moments later i entered the dining hall, and looked through the massive window that seperates the kitchen and the dining hall. chris was standing all alone. we exclaimed to one another that there was noone to be found in any part of camp, brad's car was the closest thing either of had seen. so we ate lunch, mashed potatoes and super chicken. finally the camp van arrived, that morning had been the sam's run, which seemed to explain a lot of things. we carried a few things into the kitchen then the van departed. i supposed it had been long enough and that i could go check the office again to see if anyone had returned.
    back i went, and down the dark halls. once more flicking the light upon entering acey's office. still nothing, so i looked around on his desk for clues as to his whereabouts. after a few moments of searching, and after setting down chris's application in a place acey was sure to find it, i spotted a calendar with the days monday the 5 through wednesday the 7 bracketted off and labeled "CCCA"
    acey had scheduled a meeting with me on a day when, not only he, but everybody was gone to a ccca convention of some sort. my name was nowhere on his calendar and i began to ask myself whether he and i had really made this arrangement, but after checking my own planner i was sure that i could not be held at fault, and that he had forgotten to write me down in his notes someplace.
    i returned once more to the kitchen to inform chris of the truth concerning our barren camp adventure and we laughed together at the absurd forgetfulness of camp directors.
    we then loaded 64 lbs of expired softbatch chocolate cookies into my trunk, the ones doug had called me about a couple of weeks prior and was telling me that he, steve, and kristin had been laughing about how excited chris and i would be to get them, and began our ride home.
    of course we could not drive to camp and neglect the oppurtunity to go through three rivers and visit ben booko. he served us hot chocolate and we all sat around a table hating girls together...mostly they where hating girls, i was listening to ben's workout podcasts, "podrunner."

    wait...there is a light
    last night james and chris and i went to luci's apt. i couldn't decided if i should be angry or sad. so i tried not to feel anything. she thinks i hate her...i think i have hated what she has become, but not her. but does that mean that i hate her? let's talk about souls.

    i got 268 corks in an hour. the next day, 50 credits.

    i feel like such a sap right now. a happy sap, but a sap. you might remember my last post and the extreme confusion i was in at the time. about that girl.
    well, i think i'm doing better now. i met an amazing girl. a different one, i suppose i've known her for a while, but just recently i've spending a lot of time with her. we have come to a mutual understanding concerning our relationship. some guidelines, and the such. i'm quite excited about the whole thing.

    i have this...problem
    you see, i love jesus. and it is very important to me that the person i spend the rest of my life with loves jesus.
    i dated a girl when i was high school, and i am pretty she loved jesus back then.
    and now i think i am still in love with this girl.
    i don't think she knows much about jesus these days, but i wish she could.
    i wish she could be truly happy again.
    but i really don't know what to do with myself. the smartest thing i can think to do is to pray for her [and for me].
    we are hanging out from time to time. it's nice to see her again. but it's so difficult not to get more involved than i should be.
    objectively it's so easy to see my folly. but i am obviously not judging this objectively.

    life sure is great

    "are you guys ready for flag wars?!"
    direct quote...nick yarosz^

    i really feel like just transcribing everything they say, james is calling me i think...but i can't hear him, so i won't reply.

    sometimes it's fun to tell yourself what to do. then reply affirmitively...conversations are great

    i have 75% door efficiency. great.

    i like girls
    i do miss that other girl, i wish she would call me sometime. she did on thanksgiving. i wish she and i could get together sometime and chat about things and have an amazing friendship. that would be nice.

    i also love that porter lady. she is pretty much my only friend on livejournal, there are a couple of other people i know, but i seldom see their activity.

    and then the new one. i think it is time for me to let go and try something else. and this girl really seems to dig me, so i'm trying to get to know her and let her know me better, but it's so filtered through this idea of there being an 'us' that it's really difficult for me to see this relationship building experience as unfaltered. it is influenced and affected. why is it so difficult for me to accept. that someone can actually care for me in a real way. [i want to say again, but i'm struggling with committing to admitting it]

    i would like a type writer. that would be nice.

    i like jazz music
    well, i am enjoying a night, not tired because of my crazy sleep schedule this weekend, i will need to balance that sometime within the next day or two. it should be simple enough very soon.

    i still need to get employed some place, and very soon would be a wonderful time for that.

    but i just discovered an artist [music] who is amazing. nellie mckay. you should listen to her, she is good.

    one legged bird
    this morning i saw a one leg who could not project itself high enough into the air to begin flight
    one leg hopped around really well though
    and one leg had a friend, it seemed. we'll that second bird 'two legs'
    one leg and two legs were hopping and running around with one another. and i began to notice one leg jumping on two legs with wings flapping. then fall off, and i though that two legs may not have liked that, maybe that one leg was almost harrassing two legs. then i saw one leg mount two legs again.
    what follows has got to be one of the most amazing things i've ever witnessed.
    two legs proceeded to jump upward and boost one leg into the air so that one leg could begin flight.
    have you ever seen birds aiding eachother with the process of taking off?
    i then began to contemplate the relationship between one and two legs. amazing

    day camp
    Week: 5
    Day: 1
    Age Group: 4,5,6
    Number of Campers:15 [Maybe more tomorrow]
    Number of Junior Counsellors: 3 [halelujiah]

    i dress like a pirate all day everyday..yes i wear the same clothes for five days before washing them. {day camp is pirate themed this summer} i happen to be the captain in our skits. the rest of the day camp staff and counsellors only dress like pirates during the skit..but i am much cooler than they.
    this morning i had a couple of campers who were less then the required age for day camp..but we let them camp anyway. unfortunately they were also less than excited to be here. i have two 4 year olds; megan and jason. jason was freaking out this morning, i think he may have been afraid of me. megan, was just really shy and wouldn't leave her mother's side. both of their mothers stuck around for a little while..until our first activity, which was mini golf, i then decided that the children needed to be seperated from their mothers. jason just needed to be distracted with something fun..minigolf happened to work out wonderfully. megan was still grasping her mother's hand. so i simply said to her "megan, can you hold my hand?" to which she silently replied using her actions "yes, i'ld love to" [and she held my hand] after that i didn't see the maternal units for the rest of the day. something to which i rejoiced because parents and grandparents make me nervous. they both functioned wonderfully throughout the day, as did the rest of my group.
    at the end of the day when it was time for the children to leave and go home. megan's mother approached me and said that when she told megan that it was time to leave she stated that she didn't want to go home and added something along the lines of "that's my favorite man" while pointing at me. that has got to be one of the happiest thing that happened to me today.
    and jason is excited to come back tomorrow.

    the inspiration of this post is to share stories with the beautiful miss porter due to her latest comment on my live journal.


    P.S. anybody that is interested in living with nic harris and vinnie brigance in kalamazoo this upcoming school year should contact me. please

    yeah whatever
    what the crap does nudging somebody really accomplish..i suppose i should have waited until i had been nudges several times and THEN responded with a very anoyed post..i would find that humorous

    at any rate i did not wait and your nudging has proved to be successful

    stay away from boys..they will ruin your life
    men:the same goes to you..but different

    i am living at camp now..and that greatly excites me. and tomorrow i will see chris swinson, which makes me giddy.

    cons: i no longer live within ten second walking distance of the fourth coast/crow's nest, bicentenial bookshop, and martini's.

    pros: everything else

    yes
    yes i do

    i don't know what, but i know i do.

    i'ld rather be lost in someone else's story right now..but that's only because i lack the actual ability to live my own..at least not yet..i don't know why..maybe it's because i haven't gotten everything figured out yet. yeah, that sounds right..sounds like good excuse that will hold me over for now..keep in my comfortable world till i'm ready [if i ever will be at this rate]

    just shut up and go do something with your life
