Hey, check it out! I found a minute.
A minute made for updating this thing.
Yes!!!!

Dying to know what's going on in my world?
I just know you are...

All the juicy little details, all the fun facts, the
random Lisa trivia...oh boy...here it comes.....!!!!

Alright then. Don't know what that was about.
Sometimes I like to make excitement for myself,
like last night when I took a walk across the bridge
late at night (don't tell my mom. and don't worry, it
was well lit, and it wasn't that late). There was just
something fitting about all that raging, rushing water
after all that rain and after all the insanity of the past
couple weeks of school work.

Serious insanity, folks. Projects, papers, presentations,
the works.

But look who's still standing? M-E, Lisa! Whew, it was
a close one though. It almost beat me down.

OK, so about that boy I mentioned last time....(I bet you
think I'm gonna say we broke up, huh? guess again my
oh so logical friend). He identifies himself as a Catholic.
This has been an interesting journey for the both of us,
you know, trying to figure out what really matters and
what really doesn't.

I must say, I have learned a lot about the whole concept of
the centrality of the Eucharist and other things that I never
really got about Catholics. Turns out, while I may not
totally agree with all of it, I can see where they're coming
from, and I don't think it's a "deal breaker."

This guy has way a lot going for him, and also, we seem to
have a lot going for us as a potential unit. But of course,
that will all be made more clear in time, one way or another.

I'm not getting married next month, or in 3 or 6 or 8 or 9
months. Check back with me in 9 and I'll let you know how
things are going...if they still are going...as the Lord leads.

Oh, get this: he's a songwriter. He writes awesome historical
fiction type songs on topics ranging from two grave diggers
having a theological discussion in ancient Ireland while
contemplating taking the gold coins from the eyes of the
corpse to go buy a round of drinks to Hurricane Katrina, to
Coalminer's in Kentucky. Isn't that fun?

Alright, hope you've enjoyed the update. Sorry it's taken so
long. I'm just SO glad to have made it through the semester,
with just two measly finals to go next week. I'm pretty much
finished.

I MISS YOU. (you are my special blog reader and I appreciate your
interest in my life. The feeling is mutual, so let me know how
you're doing...you know...if you want...and have time...for real)

One last thing:
God cares about those in need, aka, all of us.
He not only hears our prayers, he works all things out in the
best possible long term way. Trust Him.
