CREEPY LADY

I was quietly reading my new Mobile PC magazine on the bus this afternoon. Somewhere around page 60 I head this creepy whispery voice from my left. I looked up to see a haggard looking woman staring at me. She moved closer to me, as if to tell me a secret or something.

“I met Jesus”, she told me. Oh oh. “I personally met Jesus! I met him and he wanted me to tell you.”

“That’s nice,” I replied. “I’m going to finish reading my magazine.”

She eyed me very closely, looked around the bus, then back at me. She leaned in again, and in a weird voice, said “There’s a war going on over your soul!”

“Ok, thanks. I’m fine. Thank you.”

She left her seat, went to some other folks on the bus and began handing out fliers and preaching to them.

Ewww… I was clearly in the creepy section!

LAURA’S SWEET NEW RIDE

My sister, Laura, got a new car today. It’s a Honda Civic HX and it’s really really nice. I’ve had four Honda Accords myself, and I loved every one of them.

I was checking out Laura’s new car and found out, much to my surprise, that it has a LOT of trunk space.

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON

Woohoo! We finally got to make a trip to downtown Seattle! Codi and I drove to Seattle with my mom and my sister, Laura. Our first stop was Pike Place Market – one of the oldest markets in the northwest. We had breakfast, walked through the market, went to the original Starbucks store, etc.

Our second stop was the Space Needle. 524 feet above the city, the O Deck provides a 360 degree view of the entire city. Pics below.

We then went to IKEA and then home. A long day with many miles of driving, but a very good time.
