So, happy pi day! Funny story... I haven't been going to Family Home Evening (FHE) as often as I should be this year. For those who might not know what FHE is: it is a night once a week set aside for family time. It usually involves a gospel centered lesson, a prayer, a hymn, a treat, and a game or something fun. It is traditionally held on Monday nights, but some families will hold it other nights if Mondays don't work. Anyway, as a bunch of single people here at school, we don't always have families around to go to for FHE, so we have it together. This last Monday I was absolutely determined to make it, but there were complications. The activity was taking place at our bishop's house, and I had never been there. I quickly googled his address and scribbled the directions on a piece of paper (because I was late of course). I soon arrived at a beautiful white house. I parked my car and walked up to the door; which had a large note on it saying "COME ON IN FOR FHE!" I walked in and rounded the corner to the living room. A man welcomed me and asked me my name and how long I'd been in the ward. I was a tad bewildered because this man was not my Bishop (nor was he any other the other thousands people I happen to know). I started to think there was a change in the Bishopric and he was a new councilor or something. Then as people started to file in I realized I didn't know a single person! My suspicions were confirmed when a girl asked me which Relief Society I was in (the Relief Society is the women's organization. our ward only has one, sometimes in a large ward (congregation) they split it). So I had randomly walked into some stranger's house! I was really embarrassed, but I didn't want to get up and leave, thus drawing attention to myself, so I stayed. They had a good lesson about goals, and I met some new people (who I'll never see again), so the evening wasn't a total loss. After it was over I sneaked out, avoiding questions.

I had a really odd dream the other night. There is an old lady at work who I just love to pieces. She has advanced Alzheimer's so I'm not even sure if she recognizes my face, but I love her anyway. She has about ten different kinds of shoes in her closet, but only one of each. Whenever the slippers she usually wears go missing (go to the laundry), searching for another pair takes way too much of the one hour and thirty minutes we have to get everyone one up. So in my dream, a coworker and I were in this lady's room and we were looking at her shoes. She turned to me and said, "You know these are edible, right?" and I thought, "Well no wonder she only has one of each!" Then suddenly we were at a restaurant and I found myself eating the shoe! I know it sounds gross but they were a delicacy in the dream...
My Anatomy and Physiology class is trying to kill me. The human body is by far the most complex thing I have ever encountered. I'm not sure my brain has the capacity to comprehend all the details. I don't know how some people can not believe in God while studying the body. Every little cell works together and (in a healthy person) does what it is supposed to. It's absolutely incredible.
Well, I better get on with this evening. I have school early in the morning. Hooray for school!
The grammar in this post may make my fourth grade teacher roll over in her, well, bed. (I'm not that old! I'm assuming all my teachers are still alive)
