can't sleep? it's blogging time!

i should be sleeping by now figuring tomorrow's monday, and that means it's the beginning of another crazy rough week at work, one can use all the rest he can get. unfortunately... i kinda fell asleep around 7ish tonight.. so i'm feel quite awake now after a 3hr nap. it's blogging time.

1. got husled again last night. But this time its not by some random girl that just wanted a free drink, this time it's actually for a good cause, and it felt nice. met a bum named andrew, bought him 2 taco's for 2.50 and another 5 for his girlfriend elizabeth who he said had the same name as his mom. i don't really think he has a girlfriend but hey he needed the 5 bucks, and the tacos for that matter. the guy practically swallow the whole thing in 2 bits. turns out that he used to be in a gang down in LA, came up this summer, no work, no shelter. it's getting damn cold outside w/ all the rain. hmm.. that's rough. he gave me a calculator for the tacos... i tried not to take it but he insisted. he then asked me to pray for him and his girlfriend... sounds weird...but it really wasn't that awkward at that time. I'd buy him food anyday instead of getting a drink for a girl.

2. told myself that i wouldn't go out till halloween 'cause i need a break. well. that didn't happen. for one week, just one week, i'd like to just watch a movie on tv w/ my friends, have some popcorn, soda, and pizza, maybe play some poker or whatnots. you know, like before 21. that'd be nice.

3. it's getting damn cold. and crazy rain came down today. i liked the rain, it's about time. all these sunny october days were making me worried till the rain finally came today. it's oregon, it should be cold and depressing this time of the year. a girl i know down in LA loves the rain because 1) it only rains 5 hours a year there and, 2) it washes everything away and give it a new clean look. I like that perspective, water is the essence of life. without the rain oregon would look like cali, and that would be bad.

4. sorry to the peeps that i neglect lately. it's been busy and most times when i get home i just want to relax... and drink beer on the weekends :) give me sometime, i'll turn it around.

5. whoever thought that i would be a good sunday school teacher is 1) not right in their heads or 2) have not attended sunday school in their life. and it's not really sunday school, it's the freaken youth group, which consists of... 4 ppl. tops. if that. today there were 2. and they're related. there are six things that are wrong w/ this youth group:

1. their leader is an acoholic
2. a group consists of 3 and more ppl, we met that number once in the last 3 weeks.
3. the fact that their leader is not getting fed or being prepared for the studies cause he's always out till 4am on saturday nights because he's so dedicated in bring sexy back is probably not good.
4. one of the 4 kids don't speak english... it's a challenge.
5. i have one of those beneath the skin zits that lurks around like a old grandma at bingo night. it hurts when i touch it. i kept on touching it... in fact, i'm touching it right now.
6. we didn't pray today... damn it. i forgot.

but besides that i think there's potential for something great to come out of this group. it'll be a learning experience for all of us. maybe i should be praying about it... He knows what He's doing.

On a related note, a girl i know got rejected for communion because she called "it" a "cookie." it was hilarious... thank God for humor.
