So here's a really quick update on the last few days...
Today I tried a "short cut" to work and ended up being a half hour late. Woops!
Today on the KUPL morning show I heard that they're going to remake the mini-series entitled "V." That might not mean much to all of you, but it's this horrible sci-fi thriller about aliens coming to earth, morphing into humans, and then very violently trying to steal our water. It also displays some of the most genius acting I've ever seen... possibly rivaling "Justin and Kelly: The Movie." Apparently ABC is going to remake it. Mom and Dad and Mattie- do you remember watching that when we had just moved to Virginia? Sitting on the floor, eating our gift basket contents, trying to see the 12" screen we borrowed from Daddy's work, and missing home like crazy? Now we can relive the glory days... sign me right up. :)
In better news, I have a church. An awesome church with an awesome worship leader. Maybe you've heard of him... Tim Hughes? He also rides my bus, and last night I grilled him about what service would be best suited for a temporary American transplant like myself. It's a great church, and I'm trying my best to worm my way into a little bit of community there. I'm in desperate need of some friends over here.
Today at work I had to go through this massive list of hospitals in the London area and convert it into useful information for my office. And I got to do the whole project on... you guessed it... EXCEL! The best part was that this list was accumulate in 1938 or something, so there were a ton of old abandoned mental institutions that I had to weed through. They didn't look pleasent, and I'm glad that I never had to live in one of those.
As of today, I've officially been away from home for six weeks. That is a ridiculously long time. I also discovered that my mobile plan is charging me twice as much to call home. Thus, I will be writing more letters. Maybe. But hopefully I'll just be too busy being involved at my church.
Lastly, the mouse. It went away for almost a whole week, so Lisa and I were convinced it was wasting away on someone else's glue-trap. In reality, it was just taking a holiday from our garbage, and is now back. I think that I'm procrastinating from fixing the situation out of indignance that I have to do it. At home, I could call any number of people to help me do this, and I'm bitter I can't do that here. Ugh rodents. Ugh forced independence.
I'm making curry for dinner tonight! And maybe watching High School Musical 2 again. Because, yes, it's just that good.
Write me letters!
Okay, bye.
