so....i walked a lot today. over 5 miles (that's right. i google mapped it to figure out the distance). but it was a g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s day today. warm, sunny, a little breeze.
i went first to the library to pick up q & a, by vikas swarup, which is the book version of slumdog millionaire (which i have from netflix right now and still have yet to watch!) so far, the book's pretty good.
then i stopped by the post office and saw kristina at work on the way to the church office. then i walked to office depot and stopped by and saw lauren at work at the shoe store.
on the way out of the office today, a girl stopped me to ask what gallery church is, what we do, etc. she seemed really interested in getting involved and i gave her a way to contact us to find out more. it was a cool moment. one that would not have happened if i had left when i was planning to leave. but as i started to gather my stuff, i picked up the q & a to put it in my bag and ended up reading 3 chapters of it in the office! God has His plans and His timing, that's for sure :) i'm just blessed He chooses to include me every now and then.
i don't have school tomorrow bc of passover, so i was up a little later than usual. as i was closing the windows and the blinds, i see this guy outside walking around, looking kind of like he was up to no good. glancing around, looking at cars, etc. and the next thing i know the car across the street was broken into. and i was so badly shaking that i was not thinking straight, so of course i didn't call 911. and i feel horrible about it. but i did call lauren to make sure she was extra careful coming home from work (and while i texting to find out when she got off work, i was shaking so badly the message hardly makes sense). and when she got home, she convinced me to call the police anyway (even though it was an hour later) and i did. but when i called the non-emergency line (b/c it wasn't an emergency anymore) to let them know i'm pretty sure i know who did it and do they want a description or anything, all she said was "well, if you see him again, call back". umm...not helpful. and i'm a horrible person. so now, i'm awake at midnight and still kind of shaken up and still a little upset with myself.
but no worries, friends. we're all ok.
tomorrow, i'm posting happy things. and pictures of the pretty trees around the city.
i love you.
