Long time no blog

I was informed I didn't update this enough so here I am :)
The church thing. I ended up going back to church closest to me. They still aren't completely friendly, but every time I go they seem slightly friendlier. I think I'll stick with this church for now. I'm still contemplating letting the churches know how unfriendly they really were, but it's not a high priority for me.

Work has been work. It's stressful but it's a constant learning experience, I hope one day to feel I'm good at what I do, as someone in my past used to say "it's a process" I know that quote is from a movie, but I never saw the movie and can't remember the name of it.

I just associate it with someone that just keeps popping in my thoughts. (Pretty sure most of you figured out by now who I'm talking about) I went shopping today and was reminded of him by some clothes, actually a pair of boxers...so random. Ahh frustrating, I need to meet people here and get on with my life. I need to stop going to people in my past. I need to stop hurting people :( This "process" thing sucks.

In happier news...... running is going well. My little club has 8 people in it now, 4 girls, 4 guys. Much fun. We run twice a week. It's actually something to look forward to. I need to run more on my own. But after having a rather unfortunate fall last Sunday (laugh now, everyone else has) I'm not so sure it's a great plan for me to be running the streets of Omaha on my own. Oh well.....scrapes heal, right? I'm such a klutzy person. 3 of the people I run with play soccer, they were saying I should start playing with them. Wow, could you imagine the injuries?

Oh! I'm getting visitors! A little strange, everyone in my family wants to visit. My sister has bought a plane ticket she's coming April 22. In the 4 years I was at Ripon she came twice, once for my birthday and once because some of my stuff was left at her house. I've been here 6 months and she's already coming just to see me. Maybe our relationship is getting better? I still think my sister is "special" and Jessica Simpson reminds me of her. Yeah. But we get along pretty well now and I'm happy about that, I complain that she calls me whenever she's driving but really I like that. In college we talked on our birthdays and sometimes on holidays, this is much better. I don't want to be like my mom who is just now getting to pretty good terms with her sisters, now that their parents are gone. My parents are talking about coming Mother's Day weekend for Mother's Day and my Dad's birthday. A little backwards for them to visit me on their days but whatever. And my brother and sister-in-law(still want to call her his fiance) are talking about Memorial Day weekend.

Thing I forgot about Nebraska. Tornados. There are actually Tornado drills in this state. Werner even stages it's own drills, we ignored the statewide sirens but we will have one at a later date. I remember many times when we lived in Nebraska having to head to the basement because of Tornado warnings. I will forever remember one time in 2nd grade a boy in my class called a radio station and dedicated a song to a bunch of girls in my class during a Tornado warning, cutest little boy ever :)

Enough of the randomness for now.

I'm not a big church guy, but I think every church I've visited has made me feel welcome as I walked into the building before the service. It stinks that you've had such crappy luck.

What are you worried about tornados for? The odds of one hitting anything but a farm or trailer park are almost vanishingly small. :) Just make sure you have a portable radio and one of these (link) nifty flashlights.

We always had to do tornado drills in school too.
