I went back and read over some of my old posts and my god but am I off the clock when I write these or not. The spelling mistakes crack my ass up. That happens partially because I want to get everything out of my head and not worry about the mistakes so I don't forget anything, but then I never go back and revise and edit. But this is a different genre than formal writing and I am off the friggin clock....so then why do I feel so guilty?!?!?!?
I get all these e-mails from Jacob in Armenia updating his family about hismission, and his mom is very nice and about sending them on to me. I miss him a lot. It's tough not having those late night phone calls. For 3 years we talked every night and I went to sleep with tears in my eyes from laughing. I don't have that and it sometimes gets to me. It's good hearing how he is doing, although I tend to be somewhat shocked with what he has ot say about their methods of "converting" people. Armenians are known for being quite stubborn and quite orthodox....somehow, an Armenian Mormon doesn't exactly gel. I guess his mission has tried several methods inclucing teaching English classes under the guise of conversion and offering dinners to the Armenian men to increase the male percentage of converts. Now I love Jacob dearly, but that is all crap. But should I really be surprised. Organized religions are like children.
Can't believe we are in the beginning stages of war. What I do believe is the amount of Iraqi soldiers surrendering. I can remember during the Gulf War how disgruntled, afraid and confused the Iraqi soldiers were. They did not want to be there, they did not know why they were there, and they were very skittish. Just let it all end.
Final dress of the show before we open tomorrow. I hope everyone who can come does. I am really proud of the work in this one.
