Hungry!

Here I am at a friend's house. He fell asleep and now I'm passing time on his PC. I'm getting a pretty cool job soon. Yay to CJ for setting that up.
I've been busier than I can remember this past week or 2 and that's great because idle hands are baaaaaaaaad. Hopefully I'll be able to teach catechism this Fall; I just need to keep my job #1 or 2 because $ is important right now. OK, I need to wake this guy up and try to get some groceries down at Earth Fare. I'm in love with that Ezekiel 4:9 cereal. Some soy milk and honey and mmmmmmmm. This is what I eat while I watch Three's Company before bed.
Don't know what's going on with boys. Two boys brought up marriage a few days ago but then there's busy FC in Nigeria, promising he'll get that visa....
Stayed up all night on the phone with IK discussing politics. O was against debt relief for Africa so of course I had to ask IK if all Nigerians felt that way. He said no, but a lot do. The politicians in Africa are corrupt so they waste the borrowed money then expect the debt to be forgiven. So many of the average Africans want them to be held accountable. If the debts are enforced, it might crack down on corruption. But IK also explained that on a deeper level it all comes back to the averages folks anyway, so even though you're letting the bad guys off somewhat, debt relief is commendable. I was just shocked that anyone from Africa would be against it.
IK and I want to partner up to write about the Biafran War. It'd take a lot of time, interviewing and research, but I think we could do it when he graduates and before his internship. Maybe. It'd be fun anyways. IK and I always have a supposed project in the works, even if it's out there. He put me on the line with ZZ who's been MIA for weeks. I scolded him until the cell ran out of juice. :)
The State of GA executed another man the other day. I didn't know him, and I didn't find out the nature of his background. I just know that the whole murder-as-legal thing makes me sick and I pray it ends one day.

exactly. i heard a story about a lawyer's 8 year old kid who was getting ready for bed one night after hearing about his dad's work on a capital case. the kid in all honesty asked his dad:
Dad, we kill people who kill people right? OK, then who kills the person who kills the murderer?

Hrm..."out of the mouth of babes!"

ps my mom reminds me that the older i get the less the offers will be coming in. yet when i told her about the 2 latest offers, she got nervous and told me to forget it. I had to add "oh I just might do it, too" just to get a rise outta her. im a bad kid. :(
i get so many offers because i make myself seem available to guys other girls would probably turn down. im not being self-effacing, it's just true. :(
