Running the Race

oh hey.  I’ve been locked in my house for the past two days so naturally, i’m extremely bored.  Therefore, I’m just gonna write this blog about nothing significant.  So I got to spend the day with Mike and Karen in NYC on Saturday which was so much fun.  I was so excited to see them.  They got to meet my friend Annie which was awesome as well.  We walked from 33rd St. through Times Square and all the way to Central Park on 59th St. It was a long walk and it was soooo hot but it was a lot of fun.  We went to lunch at Ray’s Pizza on 52nd and 7th and Mike got 2 slices of this Meat Lover’s pizza which were huge and he pretty much consumed a small child.  It was amazing.  oh yeah, so the reason I’m locked in my house is because I have tonsillitis.  mehhh.  I am on these meds until july 7th.  I’m feeling better today than I was yesterday though, my fever went down, it was 101.4 or whatever.  So yeah, I’m not a telemarketer anymore because the doctor didn’t want me back to work until the 8th and I was gonna be leaving my job on the 18th anyway so I called my boss and he said that it didn’t make sense for me to come back for a week. I’m totally ok with not working for the next couple of weeks though.  I’ll enjoy the relaxation and it will give me more time to get all of my stuff together for Greensboro and time to hang out with family and friends before I go back as well.  I’m going to play baseball at Yankee Stadium on the 10th.  The Challenger Little League that I have been volunteering with since I was 9 is playing a game against another Challenger League from the Bronx there.  Alicia is gonna be up here around that time too and I’m so excited to be seeing her as well.  Next weekend is going to be crazy hectic.  The baseball game is on the 10th, i’m going to an open mic night on the 11th, Ricky is having some crazy party where I have to dress up like a character from a movie musical or whatever on the 12th and then the 13th is Dani Chez’s graduation party. (what do you do with a BA in English?)  The next weekend is when the youth will be here.  I’m crazy excited to see them.  I have my family picnic on the  20th and then me and my co-pilot, Nick Pegram, will be making the drive back to Greensboro! Wooot! I’m so excited.  God has really provided for me this summer.  I know He wants me in Greensboro and He is just doing everything to make that happen for me.  I’m also learning to just be patient and realizing that the most happens when I do nothing but follow.  It’s pretty stellar. I love Jesus. I can’t wait to see everybody!! Ok, as I said I’m bored and you have probably stopped reading by now (I don’t blame you one bit) so I’m going to go and make tea or whatever.
