you had a bad day?

I saw this on Jon Peter Lewis's official Web site Jon and friends blog and thought it was hilarious! So, so true. There is so much to be thankful for. (http://www.jonpeterlewis.com/main.html)

If you're having a bad day, here's some things you should be thankful for:

1. You were never part of Apartheid. Hooray!

2. You have little to no desire to eat human flesh! Double Hooray!

3. Chocolate is available everywhere!

4. The Beatles!

5. There's no such thing as Polio anymore! (Except a single strain living in a petrie dish in the basement of the CDC.)

6. Puppies like you!

7. Spellcheck!

8. Houdini was awesome!

9. You can read! (Or else this list would give you no joy.)

10. You haven't murdered anyone...so far...today...well, at least while you were reading this!

I just started this

I've never done this before. I mean I've written things. I know how to write. Well that is debatable. I've just never blogged. I'm excited to learn how. I just got back from my mission. I served in the Texas Houston East mission. Baytown, TX, Huble, TX and Lake Charles, LA have been my home for the past 18 months. I've been way out of the loop for a long, long time. I feel like it should still be 2006, when I left. But, it's not...Oh, am I learning that it's not! I had no idea what podcast meant. I know laughable. My friend, who used to be way techno-challenged said something about downloading a podcast (maybe? something like that) and I didn't know if she might have been speaking Portuguese for sec or somethin'. My sisters were just pre-teens when I left talk about boys and go to dances. Weird. They give ME advice on what to wear, what to say and how to act. They're so grown. My big bro's married. And blogging is this huge thing that I have no idea how to do it or even why I'm doing it. I don't know if any of my stuff will ever be read by others, but it's good for journal entry purposes. I guess. I'm not sure what a URL or MIME Type is (it's listed up above me.) So I'm going to post this and see how it goes.
