Friday OFF!!!

I looove that I negotiated Fridays off before I moved here. I looove it!!! This morning Krista and I are doing initiatories. She told me the last time we did a sesh she's supposed to go home but she ignored her  instruction because she doesn't want to go home. Rich said last night he thinks she should go home. I hope she'll be alright when she goes home. She never told her parents she joined the church. I asked her how she did that. She said she just told them she was going with her friends instead of to church. There's only 1 temple in the country and it is several hours away. She's been going every week to a session now. When I told her we should do initiatories instead she didn't know what that was so she's never done them before. I need to tell her why I didn't talk to those guys in my RE class.

I'm not going to be stupid again. I'm so grateful for the spirit. Rich is even more perfect for me than I had first supposed. The most important area however is where he messes up. He is fine AND dresses EXACTLY how I want him to dress. I never tell anyone I'm dating how to dress but they usually change it on their own. People should be who they are. I actually considered dressing down when I went to dinner with my friend, BUT I decided to be myself. It's not a big deal to me BUT I like it when they do it on their own. The only guy friends I've had that've done it on their own I later learned were gay. Rich is definitely NOT gay but he knows how to dress and he does it on his own too.

Rich looks exactly how I want him to look, is an attorney, reads AND has the Hawaii culture thing down cold. I was raised on Kung Fu movies and I still looove them. He told me he used to watch them every Saturday morning in Waikiki. We had fun doing the whole Master imitation thing. Now he can actually understand them without reading the subtitles. If I hadn't had that major 3am intervention before I got to know him I think I would've fallen hard OR maybe not. I don't feel anything. I am genuinely happy he has a girlfriend. Of course there's his entire life like being divorced and having 4 kids that I don't like AND his spiritual state needs tweaking. I think it has to do with being raised in Salt Lake when he was a teenager. He takes things lightly I don't. BUT I love his confidence. He reminds me so much of myself minus the ex-wife, kids, divorce and love of butchering his own meat and Mendon. Culture is NOT the most important thing.

Time for me to get reading for the temple.
