Driving Slow on Sunday Morning


and I never want to leave.

Wow so my last posting was 21 days ago. So i'm going to try very hard to remember (as usual). Speaking of 21? ha that's right. http://www.jordank.net for more information on that. Moving right along...

So September 5th through the 10th was our Co Visit. As usually i hearted it. We also had a brother "in-training" visiting us from the great north. I got to work with his wife in service. And I got to work with Mella another day. And we went to DQ and split a blizzard, I really felt the bonding. Then we went to visit Dorris, who made us all laugh and was very inappropriate. I did a whole bunch of service that week, of course of course. Also I started a new cleaning job, which I really like and is pretty good $$. Saturday did morning service with Co. Then saturday night went to boston. There was a free Taking Back Sunday Concert in front of the Town Hall. It was a lot of fun. Went with J-rod and Sara Vajjay. We met some other people up there. It was funny I saw these two girls standing, and one of them looked really familiar. And I couldn't figure out why, so I asked her if I had met her at a party? She looked at me like my 3 heads were showing again. She's like no I don't think I go to the same party's as you. Then I asked her if she was a J-dub? And she said yes. And then it was good times from there. Such a random world we live in After boston went to the patriot and saw Nacho Libro for free. The ceiling was falling down and I broke the chair next to me with my leg, but it was still good times.

Sunday was the Voodoo Grille (mmmm po boy pork sandwich) with phil and julie. Then band practice.

The rest of the week was trying to be as positive as possible. Biggest things I took, Comment at meetings, and invited people OIS. Tuesday went to a lunchin for Kayleigh shower/wedding stuff. Thurday went to the meeting. After met Julie at Crapplebee's. But in the process there was some other people there so we sat with them. And then afterwards went to Walmart. Mmmm nothing like milling around walmart at 11 at night on a thursday. Then went to the beach, haha. Went 4-wheeling all over Atlantic Ave, then went down to Watch hill. Someone had the genius idea to drive up to the lighthouse. Lighthouse = Softest deepest sand. Needless to say we got stuck. Ah 1 am knee deep in sand pushing Tommy's Suv outta the sand. Oh the best part of all this was, I came right from the meeting. Fortunately tommy volunteerd an extra pair of pants. But i was still wearing his size 12 sandal's and his huge Af jeans. So i'm sinking in the sand in giant clown clothes. I got called a skate rat. I Resent that. Finally got out and got home by 2.

Friday went to Flaco's with Huckstables, Aud, Wilbur, Nat (my future husband) and Corto. None of these names are actual people Then went to corto's and fell asleep. Next day saturday, no service, instead Olive Garden and Savor's. Good mix. Saturday night Worked at Perk's and Cork's. We were packed. Like whoa. But it was cool cause I made a bunch of tip's. A couple of $10 spots from some nice boys. Then around 1 when we closed me and King Nick went to Wendy's, perfect end to the evening.

This week started the 18th. I think I just did the usual, meetings, service work. Friday night stayed home and hung out with Joe K caught up on some stuff. Saturday pretty much the same. Selling some junk on ebay. But on a plus I finally go to see the premiere of Grey's. I had to watch it online because stupid me I missed it. But it was really good. Then went to the mall bought some stuff I don't need. And then went to Aunty M's and played cards. So now it's sunday. And i'm gonna get ready for the meeting.


Oh a stupid story. I was out in service on a tuesday. All was well the sun was a shinning. "Someone" got out to go to a door, I had my hand on top of the door. The door slams, I feel intense pain, Oh my hand is stuck in the door! I begin to yell. They come back open the door. And all I can see is completely flat thumb lol. I can laugh now, but ya it hurt like Phil Collins music. Thumb is healed, but funny thing i was cleaning on thursday and I cut that same thumb on a vacuum. I'm just gonna amputate.

Happy New Service Year !


Hollar at 2007, at least the new service year that is.

So i finished up the service year, with flying colors that is. Friday night (the 18th) was the oh so fabulous pioneer cocktail party. It was very fancy and I enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the dirt cake. I'm kinda sad I dont have a pic of the dirt cake or as Tilly calls it "Dump" cake. (I still dont know what kind of cake she was eating or where she got it from). Afterwards went to Flaco's. GOOD TIMES AT FLACO's. After that around 3 went to bed at corto's. (Nothing like sleeping in your fancy cocktail party clothes) Next day woke up at 9. WHY!? I don't know. Who wanted to watch saturday morning cartoons at 8:30? Aud made me and corto and jockstrap some sweet breakfast. And then the Huckstables came over and their was great rejoicing. Then went to Bean Counter for more fiddles. I heart Bean Counter. GOOD TIMES AT BEAN COUNTER. So I went home and slept. And then Bathed. I said Peace to Tommy k who was off to Jersey to pack for his trip or should I say move.

Later Met up with Sara Vizzle and some other girl to go to Swing in Prov. It was totally different group then Salsa night. But it still was fantastic. I forgot how much I really enjoy swing dancing. GOOD TIMES AT SWING DANCING. Funny moment of the evening, swing dancing with Men's Club aka dancing in a circle around girls. Afterwards got some dinner, Is it dinner if its after 1? I dont know. I dont know how but some how 6 people ended up in the Saab? Including some random guy from Florida who got me into Dave and Busters! But the best moment of the evening was seeing Stanton throw his shoe up in the air like he was gonna try and hit us. Sorry I need to set the scene here: Everything was closed and locked at the mall. There was one of those "coming soon" sections up in front of a store where the top was open. Well, when he threw his shoe, it bounced off a wall and landed inside the front of the coming soon locked store front. GOOD TIMES AT PROVIDENCE PLACE MALL. Anyways so after almost peeing myself, not believeing the one and a milllion shot. Stanton proceeds to climb the front of the chain on the store. I run, because when the cops come, I dont want to be near this kid. lol. He never got his show back, and had to walk bare foot through the grossest parking garage ever.

This week was my vacay week. IE, i did nothing and loved it. Went and bought some service stuff was the most exciting. Oh actually no, I got the coolest new cellphone, 3.2 megapixel camera, what what. So on tuesday me and my dad decide to go to NYC to hook up with TK, because hes leaving on wednesday for good. So we take a bus to NYC. (stupid stupid bus ride) We get there walk around the city and got a bit of food. Then took the train from NYC to JC (jersey city). Had more dinner. The said goodbye for real. We took tom's car and phone which were keeping. And drove back home.

Thursday watched movies and ate chinease at cortos. Actually did that thursday and friday. GOOD TIMES AT CORTO's. Saturday went to an engagement party for Brian and Kayleigh. Congratulations to them. It was really nice. Very similar to her grad cocktail party. Always a blast seeing the Malek clan. And meeting some kids from New York. Oh and there was chocolate spoons, so I was content.
Today Sunday, went to dinner with Julie and phil. mmmmm po-boy pork sandwich. Came home and Jarod and Adam came over. And we rocked hard. I was trying to play hendrix and blew it. Oh well at least I can still playing anything by weezer.

Service all day tomorrow. Pff your holiday.
