Cell Phone

no. I didn't go out and buy a cell phone (or reactivate the one I currently have for that matter) But I've had this funny Riley Armstrong song going through my head (always something crazy playing on mike-radio) all week. I could probably write it down without looking up the words, it's pretty short. here it is.

Cell Phone

I put my cell phone in the wash-ing, mach-ine
and I don't think it's ever going to ring, a-gain
It's been lost, it's been dropped; It's never drowned before,
and I hate the thought of going back to that cell phone store.

I put my cell phone in the wash-ing, mach-ine
and this accident's going to cost me, cha-ching
would it help it out if I put in the dryer,
or would the microwave work better? would it just catch on fire?

So if it sounds like I'm talking underwater,
may I remind you always check your pockets,
cause when my cell phone's waterlogged it won't anymore,
but it's clean, oh it's clean... it's clean!

I left it on the counter for three whole days,
I left it sitting on the counter when I went away
And when I got back home I put the battery back on,
crossed my fingers, held my breath and pressed the power on.
and to my surprise it lit up just fine.
underwater half an hour—and it still had the right time!

my cell phone, my cell phone, my cell phone my cell phone.......

So if it sounds like I'm talking underwater,
may I remind you always check your pockets,
cause when my cell phone's waterlogged it won't anymore,
but it's clean, oh it's clean... it's clean!



Ok, that took a while, I actually did have to type it out. That's ok, it was fun. His cd's are very practical. this one shows you how to rescue a waterlogged cell phone, and his last cd had a recipe for banana bread.

So I only have one week of work left. one week of august left too. It will feel kind of strange not working at ocad. I've been working in the computer labs ever since about the first week of school. I've come to know a lot of people. been asked a lot of strange questions, and learned more about computers then I ever though possible in three short years. It's been fun. Having said that, I'm getting really excited about my final year of school. The extra time I gain from not working I can use towards my projects and church.

People keep asking me my schedule for the fall, but it keeps slipping my mind. Maybe I'll remember better if I type it up here.

I forget whom I have for editorial but I remember he came highly recommended.

Been praying about people in my life that God has placed so I can make a difference in their lives. I don't know who or how yet, but people I can get to know better and pour into their life. Tell them the story of how they were was made in God's image to have a relationship with God. I actually want to tell people. not cram christianity down their throats, but let them know that God made us to enjoy life, to enjoy the sun, the rain, birds chirping, to find joy in the world around them, and to truly know love when all that is around them doesn't make sense. To enjoy a cold drink, a warm cup of tea, and not have to worry about what they will wear or when they will get their next meal. or what that meal will be. But most of all to enjoy the relationship with God we were all custom made for. To let people know that though we live in a fallen world, and of that there are consequences, that God's plan for loving community with Him and the people around us hasn't changed a bit.

how do I tell them? will anybody listen? Lord, teach me how to tell your story.
