Roller coaster

Today, I was on kind of an emotional roller coaster of sorts. After having an awsome time at Matt&Jac's wedding shower(house group people rock) last night I came home, went to bed, had kind of a restless night, and woke up at 8:30AM!!!!!!!!!!!!! For anyone that knows me, I am NOT a mornig person. So I waited about a half an hour and then called Nathan, cause we were going to see Revenge of the Sith. So after a couple of phone calls, and a walk to 7-11, where I actually resisted the urge to buy a slurpy(2.5 hour movie plus slurpies, don't mix, this I learned from finishing a large pepsi in the first half hour of Fellowship of the Ring, and not leaving me seat till the end of the movie.), I got on the bus, met up with Nathan, and we bused to Silver City Polo Park, with a quick detour to House of Knives, we got our tickets for the 1PM showing, then went to Wendy's, had some sustanance, the back to S.C.P.P, where we met up with my best friend Bryan.
So we got into the theatre(no lines yeah) waited an hour, in which I relented and bought a very over priced, yet very tasty slurpy, and watched a kickass movie. I mean, any movie where R2-D2 has two fights scenes in gonna be awesome. We had a bit of excitment, when half way back Bryan realises the he has left his Star wars IV, V, VI DVD's in the theatre. So he goes back, but somebody had already taken them so he has to buy new ones, oh well, he wasn't to upset which is good.
After that I hung out with Nathan a bit on our very comfy couch, where he was attacked by the ever vichious Muffin(she's a shi tzu-bichon frise cross, who's only 8'' tall, and 10'' long, but has the energy of a Jack rabbit on speed, being chased by blood hounds) till he had to go to he grandmother's, so he left.
When Bryan got back, I took him to burger factory to cheer him up, then we walked to the flower shop because I had to pick up a flower for a memorial at Hesed. One of the residents passed away on May 1, so we had a service to share feeling and memories. It was rough, but also good in a way.
So after that Cam and I went to the office and hung out for awhile before I had to come to work.
So while I'm at work, something happens that totally brightens up my mood. My old dance teacher Eddie, calls my cell phone and ask's if he can look at my swords. It turns out that he knows Evan, my roommate, and is at my house for dinner. Now this in it's self was pretty cool, but then he calls back later, saying how two of the swords that I have are the exact swords that he is trained in, and he wants to get together and train me in how to use them.
Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any way that was my day and now time for some humour.

In the beginning

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And Satan said, "It doesn't get any better than this."

And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. And God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit," and God saw that it was good.

And Satan said, "There goes the neighborhood."

And God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and let him have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."

And so God created man in his own image; male and female created He them. And God looked upon man and woman and saw that they were lean and fit.

And Satan said, "I know how I can get back into this game."

And God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow vegetables of all kinds, so man and woman would live long and healthy lives.

And Satan created McDonald's. And McDonald's brought forth the 99-cent double cheeseburger. And Satan said to man, "You want fries with that?"

And man said, "Supersize them." And man gained five pounds.

And God created the healthful yogurt, that woman might keep her figure that man found so fair.

And Satan brought forth chocolate. And woman gained five pounds.

And God said, "Try my crispy fresh salad."

And Satan brought forth Ben & Jerry's. And woman gained ten pounds.

And God said, "I have sent thee heart-healthy vegetables and olive oil with which to cook them."

And Satan brought forth chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And man gained ten pounds, and his bad cholesterol went through the roof.

And God brought forth running shoes and man resolved to lose those extra pounds.

And Satan brought forth cable TV with remote control so man would not have to toil to change channels between ESPN and ESPN2. And man gained another 20 pounds.

And God said, "You are running up the score, Satan."

And God brought forth the potato, a vegetable naturally low in fat and brimming with nutrition. And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And he created sour cream dip also. And man clutched his remote control and ate the potato chips swaddled in cholesterol.

And Satan saw it and said, "It is good." And man went into cardiac arrest.

And God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

And Satan created HMOs.
