Sooo it IS worth it for me to go over there AND watch the fireworks AND sit through that country band by myself AND I didn't find a date AND I'm not taking some girl with me there. These are the times when I'd kidnap one of my nieces or nephews. I love them so much. OF COURSE I enjoy spending time with them.

I think I'll take a book with me and something I want to eat like Mo Bettah's teriyaki chicken. I know Kabuki has all-you-can-eat sushi tonight which would be good too buuut it is more fun to be a piggy with someone else. It's just not important to me to spend time with friends. It's either family or someone I want to get to know better. I wonder if that makes me strange. Elenoa called me at work yesterday and then on my cellphone the previous day. Is time supposed to make me want to hang out with you? Uh NOOO!!!

I'm sooo happy she stopped coming over EVERY day.

It's people like her that make me think REALLY???!!! and then, "Oh hell no, that isn't going to be my life!!!" - spending time with some lady who loves discussing the gospel which is actually my favorite thing to discuss but is sooo limited in her communication abilities and depth of her gospel knowledge. It isn't fun discussing stuff with her. She is restricted in what she can explore because she just hasn't explored enough yet.

I talked to my director and I feel a lot better about the Eli purchasing thing. Our campus has operated in the red for years now. OF COURSE that needs to change. He is doing this to EVERYTHING and not just the library. I'm glad we had that chat because it was needed. I won't be going to Salt Lake City to spend time with my family. I'll just end of spending money rather than saving it which is what I need to do instead. I don't need to keep eating out. I went food shopping yesterday. I am getting a money order today from the post office to pay for my past due utilities.

Alma 36
3 And now, O my son Helaman, behold, thou art in thy youth, and therefore, I beseech of thee that thou wilt hear my words and learn of me; for I do know that whosoever shall put their trust in God shall be supported in their trials, and their troubles, and their afflictions, and shall be lifted up at the last day.
21 Yea, I say unto you, my son, that there could be nothing so exquisite and so bitter as were my pains. Yea, and again I say unto you, my son, that on the other hand, there can be nothing so exquisite and sweet as was my joy.
24 Yea, and from that time even until now, I have labored without ceasing, that I might bring souls unto repentance; that I might bring them to taste of the exceeding joy of which I did taste; that they might also be born of God, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
25 Yea, and now behold, O my son, the Lord doth give me exceedingly great joy in the fruit of my labors;
