i heart my friends...

today i had an incredibly boring day at this place where i'm temp-ing to make some extra money until i can start working at the church... it really might be the most bored i have ever been in my entire life... sincerely... i never got that bored in school and i was bored in school a lot...

but, it's one block away from an amazing restaurant that i LOVE... it's called otter's and it's a chicken tenders restaurant... and it makes my heart smile... the only thing that i could imagine that would make it better to me was if they had coke products instead of pepsi...

while i was there, i called my brother (because i was all by myself)... and it was so great to talk to him... and it made me get a little homesick for my friends... so i started trying to figure out a weekend to go to the big j-town for a visit... thanks to the technology of the internet (thanks, al), i am able to communicate with my dear friends who live hours away - those who don't return phone calls... (i'm not bitter... i'm just saying...)

so memorial day weekend will find me in the big j-town... and possibly some days before that... but i will need a place to stay... any offers? let me know...

and i'm not sure why - but tonight's movie is napoleon dynamite... oh that's right... because it's hilarious... and the opening song makes me think of my friends... who i love... here's a nugget of friend-love lyrics...

and we don't notice any time pass
we don't notice anything
we sit side by side in every class
teacher thinks that i sound funny
but she likes the way you sing

tonight i'll dream while i'm in bed
when silly thoughts go through my head
about the bugs and alphabet
and when i wake tomorrow i'll bet
that you and i will walk together again
cause i can tell that we
are going to be friends
