today i made a little video in imovie. it was so much fun. my voice sounds very strange to me in my video. is that really what i sound like??!?! wow. odd. i'm excited, i hope the opportunity for making more movies comes up. the actual content was a little... unthrilling. i wish it had been funnier. but regardless, it was fun editing and stuff. hmmm, i wonder if i'm a funny person. i think i'm funny, but that doesn't mean anything – everyone thinks they have a good sense of humour.
i had joanna over for lunch today. it was really nice spending time with her. i appreciated what she had to say, she was very encouraging and good for my psyche. i have to admit, i've been frustrated with my mental state lately. there's nothing wrong with me or my brain, but i've been so moody lately that it makes me uncomfortable. i'm going to miss joanna when she goes to australia, but i'm excited for her. that's sooo amazing.
its so nice that i don't have to go to work tomorrow. it's nice being at home. i need to decide what i'm doing with my vacation this year. i get 3 weeks and i'm using 1 to go camping with my family. i'd like to go on a short-term missions trip with the other 2 weeks, but have no direction. i have a contact in kenya, but i think that's fallen through. does anyone have any ideas or suggestions??
well i should go. i need to do some more painting and then i'm going to rhonda's for the desperate housewives season finale. oh, wait, maybe i don't have time to paint, since rhonda and i both talk a lot, if we don't have enough visiting time in advance we tend to talk right through the show. which is annoying to others and ourselves, we're always like "oh, what just happened??"
thinking of you.

Hey Les,
It isn't always exciting, but volunteering with Friend Ships does have it's rewarding moments (just ask Joanna??). I know it's not everyone's idea of short term missions, going to Louisiana to sweat away on rusty old ships. Actually on second thought, you shouldn't come here! It really isn't for everyone. But you can always check out the web site and see if it interests you.
I'm stoked because my parents just came down for a surprise visit. It was awesome because i had no idea that they were coming. Now Dess and i are working on getting our jobs passed off to other people so we can take the week off. I love unexpected vacations. As you can tell, i'm definitely on a high right now because of my parents arrival.
It's interesting checking out your blog. I think it's daring that you can right so openly. I always feel completely reserved and hesitant when righting. Keep it up!

hi Lesley,
Dave and Ester Bentley are returning in June. they would have great ideas for you. They are next's resident missionairies.
Also, why not go to Australia? See joanna, and do a short term missions trip all in one.
As for Friendships, the only downfall is having to put up with Joel. ;)
