12:56 AM, on the computer
Well first of all, let me tell you about my day at work Tuesday. My manager let me off an hour early to go see an evangelist that's speaking at my church, and I ended up being 45 mins late because we had two shoplifters in thirty minutes... and I don't do luck, so it had to have been someone trying to keep me from church. Well tough luck Beelzebub, I went anyway :þ
Yesterday was GREAT. I just can't get over it...
Wednesday at Fred's is truck day, and we had to unload about 1,100 boxes. Well I ended up dropping three boxes of spray starch on my foot, and instead of saying what I was thinking, God got a hold of my vocal chords and I emitted a loud "PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!!" The old lady there looked at me like I was nuts.
Well church last night was amazing. And I'm just gonna paste a AIM chat I had last night, cause I think I told it best in my excited state:
Padawan004: well, that evangelist last night speaking was tonight, and while he was praying for people I felt drawn to come pray for people... well I ended up being asked by him to pray for a friend that wanted his mother-in-law healed from a kidney disease, and I stood behind him and put my hands on him, and started praying for him, and I could only get out a few words and he fell out in the spirit face forward... I was shocked but I still kept my hands on him and prayed for him in the spirit, and he said when he got up that he had a vision and told me, and I said "dude, God healed her... and your mom [in law]'s diabetes is gone..." and the evangelist told him the same thing (minus the dude) when my friend told him about the vision...When I told my dad about what happened, I was so excited that I stood up and started leaping around and started talking too fast and shouting, but he laughed the entire time, he must have enjoyed seeing me act the way I was.
And even after last night I'm still in a good mood too...

I had a brilliant plan earlier. I'm sick and tired of getting stupid forwards, so I made a filter through netscape that'll automatically delete ALL messages sent to me that contain the word "Fwd:" in the subject. So in other words: NO MORE FORWARDS!!! WOO HOO!!!
I got a little heavy-hearted earlier because I read the e-mails between Meredith (the bookstore girl, if anyone remembers her) and I realized that we stopped talking because I was lazy and forgot to e-mail her. Days became weeks, then months, and now she's graduated and has probably found someone else. I know that all things happen for the greater good, but I wonder why I had to lose a great girl like Meredith to learn a lesson on being responsible. Girl, if you're out there, I'm sorry... please e-mail me? I miss reading your letters, and that smile of yours too. Y'know this whole fiasco is probably just the devil messing with me again, and he probably put ideas in my head to make me forget to e-mail her. Well you know what I say, to hell with the devil.
Someone asked me why I keep saying "to hell with the devil". I said cause it's:
1) fun to say
2) true
3) I really just feel like kicking his butt right
now...
I admit, it's true. I wanna get a big punching bag, paint a picture of him on it, and just get to beating the crap out of it! I mean look at the world today... he's got everyone that's not a christian thinking he doesn't exist or is in hell right now, but in reality he's out there roaming around like a lion (notice I the Bible says LIKE, cause he's a lion wanna-be) devouring whom he sees fit, and giving Christian's a hard time (mostly the ones that don't realize we've got power over him, heh heh heh... y'know he's afraid of us) and well... I'm just not having it... but personally, I hope I get a front row seat when Jesus tosses his big hairy butt into the pit...
Man I'm in a good mood!
Here's a stupid easter egg for all of you POD fans out there... doesn't that sound like R2-D2 on marker 0:25 in the song "Follow Me" on the Southtown album?
