i'm here and i'm alive.
weird story- i met a guy that i met online- just yesturday, it was just a weird event, i think.
okay, i feel very dorky for saying this- but on Christian mingle dot com or something we saw eachother's posts- and then he typed to me and i typed back- (this was only 2 days before he actually came up to Traverse City)- and then..he said "OH, wow yer from Traverse City-! my mom just asked me to go there with her a funeral---"- and so- he was gonna come up to traverse the next day- which was Monday, and i thought- okay this is totally weird...and then i'm like- well, it's a first time for everything...so i gave him my phone number and then he gave me a call - but i missed it cuz i was at my dad's house, so then, i saw this number- on the caller ID- thinking that it was his and it was!- so i called and he said he'd like to meet up!
So- i picked him up when he showed up at the Best Western in Traverse city, and his mom was watching from the car- it was cute. but, he was tall-ish, blonde hair, very attractive blue eyes, and he's got a little gut on him- but that's cool, cuz he's getting into those older-man looking years, cuz he's 29 or 30 yrs. old, and well, he's got a story to tell. it was great to sit down with somebody else, and talk to them about stuff- he's graduated from Western Bible college, in Pontiac, and then got married-after that, to a girl that WAS his best-friend, (almost in a sense) and then a year after they got married- he got in a horrible accident while working- he was carring a whatever-pound bag of salt, and he turned and fell- and it landed on him- crushing his sternum and breaking a few discs...that's so bad! and then he was stuck in bed for like a few months- and then, one day she came home and told him that she just couldn't take this anymore- and that she left him and asked for a divorce. He was totally shocked and didn't ever think this would happen to him--- and he just went through a couple years of brokeness and restoration with the Lord- after that...and now he's just looking for somebody to share a new life with I guess.
But i thought everything went great...he's good to talk to- i just hope that i wouldn't be stuck in more and more conversations about that--- i do like to listen, i just wouldn't wanna be stuck with somebody that is just looking for somebody to replace their old wife...eh. that's just yucky.
But he seems like a really good guy.
anyways. that's my news for now, i just had a really long day and am totally pooped cuz i went to go see Amber down at CMU and that was fun- cuz dad drove me all the way down there, and he hung out with us, it was so cool- i don't think we all hung out with dad like that for a while.
we went out to eat and that was yummy- papa paid for it...it was just an excellent day all around.
so, ciao for now.
