German apple pancakes
laughter-and lots of it.tri-tip and grilled salmon

good times with my best friend, my sister
spent with my other best friend, my mom.

*sigh of relief*
my best best friend, my dear husband will most likely be bored and have no idea what to do without me :)... and probably won't know what to eat for dinner-so call him, i'm sure he'd love the company :)

6pm...
it's 109 out.
gross.
i swear squeaker's water dish was boiling over earlier.
why do people live here?
could be worse.... could have no air conditioner.
or swamp cooler in our case (which does not really compete with anything over 105)...
90210 is coming back.
seriously?
the O.C. was totally the 90210 of the 21st century.
I'd rather watch Seth Cohen and Ryan Atwood.......
since it's so hot out.. i'm thinking it's time for one of those marathons.
the O.C. anyone?
c'mon we can eat ice cream, lay in front of fans, and watch some serious drama....

1 sound I'm hearing right now:
1) squeakers, the grey kitty that decided we're bffs, meowing outside my door.
2 reasons I don't hate wal-mart as much as I used to:
1) free schick quattro razor (i've been using the cheapy bic dipsosables..ick)
2) horchata popsicles. (serioulsy? these are the next best thing to well, horchata)
3 things I'm thinking about right now.
1) my back and neck are killing me
2) these grapes are delicious (farmer's market...best grapes ever)
3) do people really watch High School Musical? b/c I don't get it.....
4 thoughts I've had lately:
1) I want to be known as faithful, not successful
2) I wouldn't mind sharing housing-hippy commune style
3) I need to live in the now, not in the future
4) I'm so blessed....
5 bands I've been listening to lately
1) Coldplay
2) Spoon
3) Cold War Kids
4) Jack Johnson
5) Augustana
it was a list making night tonight. I've been doing statistics homework for the last 3 1/2 hours. ugh......

this song has been killing me lately....."tonight the stars speak" by the Glorious Unseen give it a listen... or two. it's so simple. .
Tonight the stars speak of your infinite love. And it serves to remind me that what I have means nothing at all compared to your glory, oh Lord. How long ‘till your voice speaks clearly? How long ‘till your arms envelope me? I cry – be my strength when I am weak. Oh Lord, have mercy on me please. My spirit is willing but my flesh is so weak. I cry in your arms now. God, grant me the strength to rest in you. I lift my hands and cry.
whew. that second line.... what I have means nothing at all, compared to your glory...... I can't even begin to explain...
I know I haven't blogged in a while... just haven't felt.. inspired I guess you could say. lots on my mind just not able to get them down on paper.
good stuff though. just lots of stuff floating around in this little brain. Portland is looking more and more like a probably versus a possibly....
anyway.. . go listen to that song. you might recognize a certain guy in the band.. he's good in the Glorious Unseen..but don't you think he'd do better leading at the Stirring? :) on that note... God was all over Jenna tonight. . . my friend Jonesy and I were just amazed at her voice-the soft, power.... *whew*
I've been focusing on alot of other things more than my relationship with God. it's stupid. plain stupid. it's time to change that. my dear friend Rosetta and I had a great convo the other day and we're talking about hard it is to not put your husband first..ya know? but i realized (thanks to Rosetta:) that's why I get upset with Jeremy sometimes.... because I'm expecting him to fulfill all the needs that God is supposed to fill....it just makes so much sense when you look at it that way...well friends.... i'll leave you with a picture...been a while since one of these...:) loves you all.
