7 days until Texas!

i did it! my hair is officially shorter than it's ever been...and i really like it! i want to get a picture on here soon...we'll see.

me, my dad, a couple kids from the youth group, and martin's mom all went out to the scout camp that he works at last night...it was really really  cool, even if i didn't understand anything. my dad had a great time, especially since he used to go to things like that all the time. and it was neat, b/c we hardly ever do anything together, and it wasn't awkward or anything. i really need to work on getting to know my dad better.

and i cleaned the bathroom today! what fun...it actually kind of was, b/c my mom and sister were cleaning too, and being silly and listening to music. i really like alphabet soup and gilmore girls. quite a nice combination to round out the day, actually.

i found this this morning and thought it was super cool:

"I pulled you in from all over the world, called you in from every dark corner of the earth, telling you, 'You're my servant, serving on my side. I've picked you. I haven't dropped you.' Don't panic. I'm with you. There's no need to fear for I'm your God. I'll give you strength. I'll help you. I'll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you. "Count on it: Everyone who had it in for you will end up out in the cold--real losers. Those who worked against you will end up empty-handed--nothing to show for their lives. When you go out looking for your old adversaries you won't find them--not a trace of your old enemies, not even a memory. That's right. Because I, your God, have a firm grip on you and I'm not letting go. I'm telling you, 'Don't panic. I'm right here to help you.'"
