  • Funny story

    Ok...so I have been horrible at updating xanga....I've been a little better at Myspace and Facebook, but it seems like everytime I have time to update this thing it's when I'm in the US.

    Speaking of the US....as many of you know I have been living in Peru - a third world country - for over 6 years now and I have never had what has happened to me this past week happen to me while I have been in Peru - again a third-world country.

    So first of all, I was in Taco Bell the other day with my dad and I just happened to find a huge hair/fuzz (not the normal size) in my taco. Honestly, it didn't gross me out that much, but I did let them know about the problem. They were gracious...gave me my money back and then gave me a free coupon for a value meal. Cool...I liked getting my money back.

    Then a few days later we went to this really nice restaurant with the whole family. I ordered Filet Mignon and asked for Medium under the direction fo the waitress because that how it was going to be nicely pink in the middle. It came back back totally done and very hard...no pink. So I showed the waitress and she was more than willing to change it out for me. So by the time everyone finished their meals, I got my second Filet Mignon.....i think it was moo-ing. It was definitely NOT pink...it was red and practically bleeding. The waitress again, felt terrible and sent it back to get cooked a little more. Finally got the steak right on the third....and again got a free meal out of the deal. Not bad for twice in a week.

    Then yesterday...to top it off. We were at Red Robbins....everyone ordered burgers and I ordered the rice bowl. We got our food and I started cutting away at the chicken on top and picking at the vegetables and rice when all of a sudden I saw a wod (sp) of paper in the middle of my rice bowl. Now I have need a lot of things in food, but I don't think I've ever seen a wod of paper slightly smaller than a golf bowl in my food. Of course the management was very sorry and for the 3rd time that week....I got a free meal.

    How crazy is that....well just had to share.

    Also, just to let you all know I am not officially 30 weeks along in the pregnancy and have definitely go the baby belly going on. It's hard to believe that Jude is going to be here in about 10 weeks. :) I am so excited!

    Hope all is well with everyone!

    I guess God provides in mysterious ways! ha ha ha (And I'm not typically one to use that phrase.)

    Ok, so I love the name Jude!!! Such a strong and vibrant name! And I love it that you're already calling him Jude and not just "baby".

    So, are you planning on coming to Cali at all? I think you had said no, but I don't remember. Sorry, I've been terrible at keeping in touch lately. Things have been crazy busy and I know that you're busy as well.

    Oh btw, Angela Gulotta told me that Jeremy and Crystal are pregnant too! =)

    Love you!

    Kristin,

    Only you would have those types of things happen! How funny!

    I agree with everyone else, I love the name Jude! Now I just can't wait to see him! I can not believe that you only have 10 weeks left. This is just flown by so fast...well at least for me it has.

    I am counting down the days until I leave...only 22 days left and I will be in Lima Peru. I can't tell you how stickin' excited I am!!!!

    Thanks for writing, it was SO good to hear about you! Tell Nick I said hello :)! AND your family too!

    Love ya,

  • lizthompson777

    Hey K! I'm so excited you're going to be here. I'm thinking I might be bale to come down Sunday afternnon/evening. Would you be free during that time? I wouldn't want to invade the family's time. Let me know 'cause I would love to see you. Oh and I'll probably give you a call on your Dad's cell tomorrow.

    Love ya!
