Here We Go Round, Round, Round

Here We Go Round, Round, Round

Well it seems like it’s been a month since I last wrote on this thing. However, in reality it has only been a few days. Wow, so many things have happened since then. Where to begin? I know, I’ll just give a quick recap of everyday with the pertinent highlights.

Friday: I had lunch with Dexter on Friday which was really good. It’s been awhile since I saw that guy. It’s neat to hear that God is constantly moving his people around for his purpose. He’s doing well and I think he’s seeing/dating this girl so that’s wonderful too. It’s interesting to see that God has moved both of us so far since a year ago when we first met. That night after church we saw the Incredibles. I really liked it a lot. If you haven’t seen it yet, go watch it. It’s worth it. I also got to hang out with plenty of the singles so that was fun too. I’m glad Frank knows about the “safety seat” otherwise it may have been uncomfortable in the movie (well that and if Jen didn’t sit between us).

Saturday: Italian cooking class! This was really fun. We had around forty people show up at Rob’s house to cook and eat. Even though I had to miss the UH game it was still worth it. The food was great, the fellowship was great. I got to meet some new people. Hang out with the old people. Plan our MiniChurch fun night coming up.

Sunday: I had to play for the Soldiers of Light at Olivet Baptist Church. I took Keiko with me because she wants to do a hula for our Japan trip next year and the Halau o Kama ‘Ula do a really good dance to “the Prayer” redone by Maila Gibson and Ho’okena. I was really impressed that they had to perform at a Japanese language service before the main service. They actually sang a song in Japanese and one girl even gave her testimony in Japanese! I felt like I was at KBF. She didn’t even need a translator. Very impressive. The girl doing the second testimony was also very good. She is a pretty girl that hated looking in the mirror because she thought she was ugly. Keiko wrote her a note of encouragement I think (I suspect she wrote something like, “next time don’t cry because the puffy, red eyes do nothing to improve you appearance” but that’s just a guess). Afterward we got a call that Reuben was getting baptized so we went to Kaneohe Bay to help him celebrate. It was great. When I got home I found out that my dog was bleeding from his tail. We took him to the vet to get his tail chopped off and $700 later he’s home and all depressed. I couldn’t believe that it cost that much! I told them to just keep him and I’ll use the money to buy a new non-defective dog. I think they thought I was joking (and I suppose I was in a totally serious way). Oh well, now Charlie has a much shorter tail.

Monday: Monday was very non-eventful. I had lunch with Krystie at Costco. I heard an interesting term on Sunday night: back-up girl. Someone alluded that Krystie was my back-up girl. I’m not sure how to take that. There may be some validity to it, but I’m not sure. Maybe I’ll just ask Krystie. While I was waiting for Krystie to finish class I did get to see the new Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club. It’s pretty nice but I think I like Costco better. Who knows?

Tuesday: You know what I hate? I hate it when you go to class but since you missed the last class, you find out that class may have been canceled. There were four of us in class today. None of us had attended class last Thursday. We suspect that class was canceled and that they announced it on Thursday. So after five minutes we split.

PS-I also figured out that it’s really hard to force-feed dogs pills. I had to wrap it in bacon before Charlie would eat his anti-biotic and pain killers. Tomorrow I’m going to check out an ad that I saw in the paper. Pray that it goes well.
