Let's NOT check each other out at church, thanks! :P
Not another weird phone call: 519-888-4567 from Ontario, anyone? Good thing I don't know a soul with THAT phone number! Doesn't seem like a phone card number either, so I'll just leave that alone for now!
On the way to church, we discussed Vivian being in Tel Aviv soon - that should be interesting! I also gave Dad his birthday card - it was all about different types of poop. Mom thought that it would be better suited to my sister, but we told her that it wouldn't be marketed to women! It was even funnier when Mom read out a description or two, haha. Steph asked her why she married Dad when he was younger than her since she seemed to think that the man should be older than the woman. My dad's response: "Mom seduced me!" Steph and I gave each other a LOOK and instantly branded that to be TMI. There are some things we REALLY don't need to know... o_O
When I got to church, I told Randal about Korey while we were discussing what we did yesterday: apparently, K seems like a nice guy to him! Not sure how he felt about it, since we two are good friends... I'll talk to him about it later, maybe. Poor Randal forgot about a missions meeting until it was already in progress... guess he'll have to do his laundry today since he had no time yesterday! Gave Hannah, Priscilla, Natalie, and Nathan their chocolate-covered raisins since they were all like "CANDY!" when they saw me, haha. (also gave them a bag for Julie, who thanked me later on) Andrea and I said hi to David, Rosenda, and Ian in back - always good to see them! Too bad Jeremy wasn't here, because he'd have gotten some amusement from the Powerpoint quirkiness (supplying our own lyrics, oh my!) and such - we all laughed when Eric dismissed the kids for Sunday School, because Nathan said "Finally!" loud enough for people to hear! Saw Nate's pack of Transformers playing cards, and chuckled to myself. Went downstairs to wash my hands, and saw Karen: she asked after Korey, and seemed disappointed when I told her that he wasn't coming anytime really soon! Oh well, it'll be all right. Later, Pastor Edward said that we could "check each other out" while promoting the 40 Days of Community initiative - I tapped Nate on the shoulder (who had borrowed a pen from me and didn't give it back) and said that the term was something quite different than what he meant to say! Too amusing!
I didn't really hang out in the back parking lot today since it was kinda late when we finally got out of service: the babies and young kids were getting really restless / tired, and you could hear it for sure! Mike kept inadvertently kicking me in the shoe, but it was okay - I noticed a cute star drawing on his hand too! Cordia said that Danielle didn't want her to attend the Internet talk that she and Nathan are giving in August, but didn't really say why. Went to the toddler Sunday School, and played Jenga / cars with the kids: learned that Frances is coming back to teach the kids soon, which will be good. Sean was really restless today, rolling around on the floor and saying "Oh no!" at various intervals. Waved hi to his brother Ian when the family came to pick Sean up and thanked me for being who I am, haha. I like these kids!
Went outside, where Eric / Dylan / Christon were talking about wine-tasting (you can get drunk pretty fast on the little alcohol that's in there!) and student loans. Mike, Ivan, and some of the other guys were standing around - apparently, little Nathan was talking about playing STARCRAFT, haha. Eric asked if my mom still needed a ride, and I assumed she did - she was registering people for the Walkathon, so I wondered when she'd be done. She said "five minutes," which I assumed to mean ten. Dylan said that he needed to study for his First Aid exam, but really didn't think that his bed was a good place for it since he fell asleep every time he tried to study there. He also thought that Tony had ditched him last week, and forgot what he was supposed to do this afternoon: maybe something for Jon, since Eric and I would have reminded him if he had plans with us! I said hi to Karen I. when she came out, and she said that she kept forgetting about the wedding photos for me. Then we talked about seniors, Grandma, and Hong Kong - sometimes you don't see them for a couple of weeks because of bad weather and such. She had to go for lunch with her in-laws, so we said we'd talk later. Chung came by a little later, looking for Rich - he thanked me when I said that he was probably downstairs (at the luncheon / meeting?) with Steph and my dad. Soon afterwards, Eric and I got going with my mom in tow.
On the way home, I asked Eric how breakfast with David had been. They'd selected De Dutch Pannekoek House, which I haven't been to in some time. Seems he's going to MIT pretty soon, which is cool. Mom asked whether he was married yet (no), and Eric thought that a reasonable assumption since all of HIS roommates are married already! We talked about Dallas for a while, and then I asked if Eric was playing STARCRAFT tonight: seems the guys do so every Sunday, and wait for people who are late to the game. Setting yourself to "busy" and not seeing any messages that pop up is probably a good strategy to ward off MOST people, haha. Eric thought that I could make myself permanently "Out To Lunch," but I don't think that would work given Trillian's insistence on setting me as always online and never idle! (then I get messages from certain people wondering where I am - not here?) If someone nominates him for the ESCC next year, he'll have to decline due to his focus being elsewhere - at least Committee seems to be going all right for him! He asked whether Dad's birthday card was based on the poop email, but it was different! Definitely a different dynamic from the usual car ride, although he DID ask whether I existed as he was about to turn into my side street! Haha, at least there were no #4 / Alderbridge jokes!
