So this last Sunday was an adventure. I don't know how quite to begin. Should I start casually? Go right into it? Sigh. So many possibilities so little time. Well.. here goes nothing...
This last Sunday Jason and I had a great bonding moment for our friendship. He was on worship team this week and so went to church early and was up on stage. Keegan, myself, plus a couple extras sat in our row and saved some seats for Daniel and Jason to join us at later. When Jason sat by me in service he whispered, "I have a funny story to tell you later." Me, being the person that I am could barely wait to hear such a story. I'm very proud of myself, I made it through the whole sermon; making sure my curiosity didn't get the best of me. After the service Jason began to tell me his story. It went a little something like this.
Jason was singing next to a lady who was also on the worship team. After the first song, when everyone was greeting one another, she asked him, "So how's your wife doing?" If you don't already know, Jason is my age and certainly NOT married. His response told this unknowing lady just that. "Oh you don't have a wife? I just thought... I'm sorry... I saw you walking away with the dark haired girl and just assumed," she explained. "Which dark haired girl? The one over there in the pink?" Jason asked. When I turned my face back towards the stage the lady exclaimed, "Yes! That's the one!"
So... Jason and I were married and we never even knew. When he told me the story I tried making him give me his ring but he wouldn't buy it. Well Jason! IF YOU LIKED IT... YOU SHOULD HAVE PUT A RING ON IT! We are so done. Even though Jason and I are were best friends... a DIAMOND is a girl's best friend. =P Just kidding! It's so great that Jason and I are such good friends.
This isn't the first time that this kind of thing has happened to us either. When we were doing a volunteer day with our school an older lady at the retirement center basically tried setting us up.
Old Lady: "Have you ever been to the lake?"
Me: "No I haven't. It sounds really nice though"
Old Lady: "Oh yes, you must go.. Have your boyfriend take you."
Me: "I don't have a boyfriend =/ "
Old Lady to Jason: "YOU can fix that can't you?"
Jason: "Yes ma'am" laughing awkwardly
Old Lady: "Good! And you MUST send me pictures and tell me all about it. You promise me that you will go?"
Jason and I: "Yes, we will go"
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....
Oh my.
Jason and I both think each other are pretty great... but just friends =]
We'll stick to going to chapel and NOT getting married. =]
Tootaloo Kangaroos!

ReplyDeleteLove you!

I feel like there are going to be comments after my comment, that are going to be directed towards my comment in hateful ways!
ReplyDeleteWell here I go.
Maybe that lady was a prothet, or a gypsy, and she caught a glimpse of the future where she saw you and Jason yoked together! You should probably find her to see how many youngins you're going to have and what kind of car you're going to drive. OR maybe by the time you have enough money to buy a car, there will be hovercrafts. So maybe you should be asking whether or not, you'll have a two seater hovercraft, (Just for you and Jason) or a 'soccer mom's van' type of hovercraft for all your youngins.
But whatever.

Hahah... Phil. Yeah, I got your facebook comment through my e-mail but I'm not getting on facebook for awhile. I'm sorry that everyone ganged up on you in the other blog. Haha.. We all just know that you can take it =P
ReplyDeleteWith that being said... On the Valentine blog you implied that Preston, Daniel, Keegan, and I were all going to get married.. Where does Jason fit into this mix?
Marriage seems to be very important to you. Why is this the case? Do you secretly feel incomplete without a marriage of your own? You desire so greatly for that love and security that you feel compelled to displace your own desires upon other people... You do this in hopes that one day it might prove true in your own life. Well Phil if our blog helps you feel better about your lack of a significant other then comment away. Keeganandme.blogspot.com are here for you =P
lol
ReplyDeleteThanks Lindsey! I consider your blog my emotional security punching bag; you're the best!
And where does Jason fit in?
ReplyDeleteone word.
Mormonism.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha.....Oh my.. So true.. I almost forgot about that option! Thanks! Man.. we are just here to help each other! Yay friendship!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so when I, as your mother, read the title, my eyebrows flew up to my hairline! Say what?! but then again, your true aim is to gain a Mrs. degree. That's my girl!:P
ReplyDeleteYou know it. Isn't the only reason to go to college? Just to find myself a man? Change that MS. to a MRS. haha.. I mean that's what you have always taught me =P Such great wisdom.. Love you.
