unexpected...

today i had a monday... i hate mondays... HATE them... i was trying to think of something to eat for lunch before class... i'm trying not to eat fast food, so i opted for a triple venti extra hot stirred caramel macchiato from starbucks... when i walked in, starbucks jason was there... he's so nice... very friendly, in general... everytime i go in, he says, "hey!!! how are you?" - that kind of thing... well, i was complaining about monday - and so we talked about it... and then he told me i was going to love my drink - that it was going to be really good... and he hands it to me, and we say our goodbyes as i am walking out the door and taking a drink of my coffee... PERFECT... it was so good... i left starbucks beaming... huge highlight of my monday... thanks, starbucks jason... i owe him a thank you note, i think...

class was pretty boring and my afternoon at work was pretty uneventful... my newest thing at work is focusing on the website... the print shop is pretty slow... and our website is pretty bad... so i'm going to try and learn dreamweaver so that i can redo our website from scratch and make it look cool... it can't be much worse... i went and talked to boss cameron in his doorway... and we talked for a minute and then he said he wanted to ask me a question... i ended up going in and sitting in the chair across from his desk... and he asked me a personal question about this retirement party we had for a coworker last week... and that began a discussion about single women in ministry/married women in ministry... christian singleness... all kinds of stuff... after he asked me the first question, which was pretty general... i sat there thinking about how to answer and totally got teary-eyed... unexpected... it was a good talk, but not one i was expecting to have this afternoon... my final analysis (which i verified with someone else) is that a lot of times single women aren't necessarily verified in ministry - or considered as worthwhile as married women in ministry - regardless of if their husbands are in ministry... that may not be true... but it feels that way a lot of times... anyway - unexpected conversation with boss cameron today...

i was talking to new friend (amy's friend first) jeremy tonight on im... i've never really known anyone who doesn't really like cherry flavored stuff besides me... but jeremy doesn't either... there have been a few things about us that overlap... like our overwhelming coolness... and liking the lake better than the beach... random stuff like that... (maybe i'm not so weird after all... actually, that's probably not true...) unexpected... but a fun end to my day...

i'm going to bed before midnight... way unexpected, but very exciting!!!
