Will Mamala come visit my site too?

Why is it that when we are learning stick shift we put so much pressure on ourselves when there are only two types of drivers out there. 1) The folks who have learned how to drive stick shift so they too have been there and have certainly stalled themselves and 2) The ones who have not learned how to drive stick shift so they have no basis to look down on those of us who are at least trying it.

Great post.

You know I will stay here as long as you need me; I can change my plans.

Shocked I am by the childish anitcs of the preacher’s kid from Sharon’s story. Shocked that he had to resort to recycled movie quips. Geeze! A really quality PK would’ve been much more inventive.

You’ve got some great friends, RM. (And I think their ought to be some sort of distinguished service cross from a preacher married to a preacher’s kids with two preacher’s kids of her own!)

Wow. I do remember that conversation. I am surprised that you do! I feel blessed to have been there at that “tender time.” And I also remember with great humor watching you and R as junior high youth group sponsors. If that did not squash the call to ministry, then nothing can! :)Do you remember when one of those kids (the preacher’s kid) starting asking all of those thinly veiled questions about my honeymoon??? Grumpy Old Men, the movie, had just been released. This kid kept yelling across the crowded dining room to my husband things like, “Hey G- did you park the car in the garage? Did you put the hotdog in the bun?” You know– all those innuendos. Oh my goodness. I thought I would die right then and there. But then G, my new husband, looked straight at him and said “Well yes, I did.” That pretty much ended the entire episode. Ahh– moments of ministry.
