Not so Fast there, Charles.

So I usually consider myself to be pretty computer literate.  I type, I can use MS Office proficiently, I have 5 buttons my mouse.  I manage to surf the internet without giving my computer aids.  I know binary code.  How then?  How did it take me like 30 minutes to make a meme?  Oh well.  It was a painful process that included many google searches and cursing Paint for being so dumb.  I won't go into much detail, just know for future reference that you can in fact put text  in your picture, but you cannot change its color.  Racism.

So it's been a while since I blogged.  I guess I'll give you a quick 34 word recap of what I've been up to.  Announcements, internship, announcements, work, announcements, internship, work, church, running (trying), sleeping, announcements, workinternshipchurch, looking for a place to live, dancing, stuff, watching funny videos of animals, other stuff, phone calls, CF clinic, etc.

And there you have it.

So below there is the meme that took me an obnoxious amount of time to make.  On Tuesday I fasted as part of the Ward's 40 day fast for missionary work.  Merilee did hers on Monday and had a great experience.  She's such a great example.  She had a neat conversation about the Church with one of her coworkers that day.  I knew that my fast would have blessings, even if I didn't have any missionary experiences that precise day.  It's a good thing I had that attitude or else I would have been like Chan here because pretty much the only person I had a conversation with that day was with another member at the lab where I'm interning.

 

And he wasn't even inactive!  The last significant missionary experience I remember having was probably a couple weeks ago when I was online and chatted with a friend from school.  He was always really skittish talking about Mormonism in class, and I could tell that he had certain perceptions probably from knowing Mormon people at school.  I forget what exactly we talked about but I do remember just telling him that I didn't mind answering questions or talking about it and that he could feel free to ask me anything.  I felt like it was major for him for someone to be so open and non-defensive about it.

Okay folks so that's pretty much it.  Excuse me while I go look for a place for me and my bride to live.
