Some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, or end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.

"Did That Actually Happen?" Moments

I have had a ton of time to think today because I am have a horrible cold and feel like crap and have just been sitting around doing nothing most of the day. And I was thinking about moments in your life that happen, and then you aren't sure that they happened. Now, it sounds like I am talking about those dream come true moments, but that is not what I mean. I have experienced moments that were just so random and out of character, that I wonder if I made them up. Here are some of the ones I was thinking about today:

When I started to bawl my eyes out in Jacob's car in December 2008. Lexi and Aticus and Bri were also in the car. And I was just crying extremely hard and loud because I had heard about some poor choices someone had made and it crushed me. Then when I calmed down Jake drove to a dark road and started telling way creepy stories about dreams he has had about dead people living in refineries and coming to kill him or something. He is one unique kid! And his stories definitely kept me from crying anymore.

One time at rehearsal for RMT's Millie, Devin poured his heart and soul out to me. Why is this weird? It's weird because at this time we weren't really that close, we just had all of the same friends so we hung out all the time. But we had never had a serious conversation before, let alone talk about our biggest trials and spiritual experiences. It was really something.

So those are some of the thoughts that occupied my brain today. Yeah, I'm on a lot of cold meds that make me drowsy and foggy.

Oh! and it's Valentine's Day today! It was my first time in a Singles Ward on Valentine's Day. Oh. Boy. haha a lot of the older members were kinda depressed and I felt bad for them! I have no problem being single. Last year I was absolutely crushed and heartbroken on Valentine's Day. Anything is better than that! haha But the speakers today were especially amazing and I felt the Spirit so strongly.
And last night after work I went to Patrick's house and Lex, Caitlin, Breanna, Cody, Yazzie, Camie, Matt, and Katelyn were there! And it was awesome to see them! And then we went and saw the improv show (Tay was in it and Grant played the piano) and met up with Devin and Jake and Becca and even Guy Gibbons came and sat with us. It was a great little BHS alumni/student uniting thingy. But I don't think I could hang out with the Musicult 24/7 anymore. Once or twice a month is good, but really I have changed a lot more in the last 6 months than I thought I had and occasionally I think they just seem really young and immature. But I still love them and we will be friends forever! and some day they will grow up too!
Wow....I really just rambled on about stupid stuff.
