I was just writing a comment on Blake’s blog, and this question came to mind: Do you think it is more likely that I would…

1. Win American Idol
2. Marry John Cusack

I think both are extremely unlikely, but if you had to pick, which is more realistic? I’m not saying I really want to do either of these things necessarily, I just … wondered about it. I will put my answer up hidden and everyone who picks the same answer as I did will win 100 billiion points.

Day: April 21,2006
Task: Brew a bathtub full of iced tea
Initiator and winner of 1 trillion points: Jessica Collins
Tea bags used: 58
Fun Level: 10 million

This was a great thing for Jess to do on the last day of being 21. Jessica came into my room and said that wanted to help me fulfill my goal of making a tub of tea. At first we were talking about it as if it would happen sometime in the future. After a while, she asked how much tea it would take. I didn’t know the answer, but I decided to see how much tea we had. I had a package with 100 bags, and she asked if that would be enough. I said I was sure it would be, and then she asked if I minded using it…

“No,” I replied.
And in Jessica’s cool, sultry voice she said, “Then what are we waiting for?”

If you had to pick one time of the day to get online, for only 30 minutes, and that would be the only time you could ever use the internet any day of your life, what time would it be?

I will immediately comment and leave it hidden. Later I’ll reveal it, and whoever picks the same time as me gets 300 million points. The amount of people who can win is unlimited.

The night was falling on Easter Sunday as I strode into my living room to settle down for Grey’s and Goodies. Loving friends surrounded me, and I was peaceful about the evening. We turned on ABC to find that What About Brian would be showing in Grey’s place. A minor stir drifted amongst us as we carefully planned what to do next. We gave the show a chance, and when it concluded my mind was clouded with confusion. My expectations for the show had been high, yet it failed to deliver. My heart began to ache. I knew I needed healing; something that would restore my faith in humanity. I decided on darts.

Things I wanted when I was a kid:

- a good climbing tree
- to fly
- a Barbie car that I could ride in
- to be an author
- to play with Erin and Kylie all the time
- the Paula Abdul poster in the room Christy and I shared to come down (her eyes followed me around)
- a new windsuit every year
- to explore the woods in the back of my neighborhood every chance I got
- to play HORSE with anyone on my driveway at night
- glass dolls
- a dog
- the closet door shut every night

For a few weeks now a dove has been living in our courtyard, protecting a nest. On Sunday the eggs hatched, and now we have three little doves with us at Irvington.

Today I spoke at work for the morning Flock time. I just talked about myself a little because I felt like no one really knows me that well yet. It turned out really well, except that one lady left thinking I actually counted crows, and thought that for half of the day. I said a few things that made the whole room laugh, which was different for me. I honestly wasn’t trying to, and it caught me off guard every time I did it. They actually were laughing real laughs, not scattered pitty laughter on any level. It was nice. Maybe I should do a stand up titled All About Molly.

Work was good this week, I posted an update on my OT blog in case you guys want to hear about it. I can’t really go into detail with names of kids anymore, so it will be hard if you guys read about “David” but have heard the same story about “Chris” while talking to me in person. That blog is more for a professional log anyway.

I may have mentioned this before, but I think I’m going to start a site for reviews of my favorite places in Tulsa. Right now I have saved http://Tulsasbest.blogspot.com but I may change that. I am pretty excited about it though.

Alright, Two posts on two different blogs and creating a new blog… I think I’m officially a nerd.

When I was in Destin I went a few mornings with Jessica to Starbucks, where we read USA Today. I have always known I loved reading good newspapers. I appreciate them, but I found something in the USA Today that makes me very happy.

They have a section in every issue called “Across the USA”, where they tell news from every state. It consists of one bit of news from every state, usually about 50 words or so. The things they chose were incredible. If you had to choose one fact about Oklahoma every day to put in a newspaper, just one fact, which would you pick? How would you decide? Do you watch the news, do people call this person and say, “Hey I know you’re always looking for news, I’ve got some.” It seems like it would be a stressful job to chose one fact, however it seems that while some facts remain interesting, a few of the “choosers” of these facts have been getting a little lazy.
