It's a small world after all!

Monday:  I go to the FHE ward activity, "dressed" as a gangsta.  I bring Jake Morris along.  There I see Dave Sparks (one of my best bud's older brothers.)  He invites me to go to a spook alley with a bunch of people from the ward.  One of those people is Lacey Thomlinson, from Dubois.  Then I see Stephanie Nickerson, as I'm talking to Cassy Bell (who we met and went to Taco Bell with 2 mondays ago=funny story too) and she (Stephanie) comes over to talk and I invited her to come, turns out Lacey already had.  Here's where the crazy connections begin to happen:

• Steph(for short) knows lacey because they both grew up in little towns and just know each other.
•  I know lacey cuz she was melissa's friend and you know everyone (especial all the LDSpeople) when you live in Dubois.
• I met stephanie (or so i thought) about 2 months ago when I took Amy Baird on a date to see harry potter 7 part II.  Titain Sweeten took stephanie.  Amy and Stephanie recognized each other because "a long time ago" they had been on the same group date.
• Jake used to work with Steph's older sister at the Hard Hat Cafe, and older sister had set up jake on a date with stephanie.  It was a group date. 
• I was on that group date, but didn't realize it was the same one that Amy and Stephanie were talking about until said monday activities.
• We're driving to the spook alley in Jeremy's truck.  Jeremy knows Stephanie, and apparently Lacey too (not sure how) but he knows Dax Thomlinson too (who was my best buddy in Dubois.)
• Jeremy is one of my home teachers.
• Rob Page is also with us.  His older brother knew Jeremy.  They talk about hydro seeding and such.  We make fun of them for talking about hydro seeding.

said baptism 

those are just a few of the odd connections we made that night.  It was quite entertaining.  speaking of peculiar connections, a couple months ago I went to a baptism in IF with chelsea Izatt.  It was the baptism of a guy who lives in colorado but his friend goes to school here and she's the one who introduced him to the Gospel.  Said boy's bishop's daughter is rooming with chelsea Izatt's friend (they're both "hot shots" at maleluca)  and invited said friend to the baptism and to invite said chelsea to invite friends. I was invited by said chelsea.  Afterwords we went back to said friend and said bishop's daughters apartment for approximately 5 minutes.   on wednesday (yesterday) as i was playing volleyball on campus, a girl comes up to me and says "your name is Tim, right?" (man i love that when it happens! haha you feel so cool) I said yes.  turns out she is the other roommate of said friend and said bishops daughter who recognized me from said 5 approximate minutes.  There were more tangled web connections this week but i've forgotten them. i'll keep you updated (he says to himself.  no one else actually cares haha. . .or reads this. except for jesse. and mo. and catty. thanks guys! haha)

  

Once upon a time in MEXICO

. . .So there i was in mexico with older brother Jesse (well at the end of the dream it was jesse, at this point i think it was some general or military officer) and a couple of other people and we were trying to get to the top secret airplane hidden by the government so we could save the day.  we were being chased by our rivals.  There was a gun fight.  Then we got to the airplane but it was just me and jesse (or his soldier counterpart) and the top secret airplane and its like 8 against 2.  fortunately the airplane had a super high tech fancy gun so i lured them in and jesse(or so) got the rest of them except for the boss and then suddenly it was me and Jesse and we were in the military base (now in the USA)with my rival. he was fighting against us in the gun fight but had to team up for the greater good. . .

So I think we flew to get there. . .but the point is suddenly we were in the top secret air force base and we were searching for a top secret jet with special abilities which would be just what we needed to stop the evil genius' plot to do something evil and geniusy.  Anyways that was surprisingly easy so we get in the Jet.  Jesse is driving, and my rival morphs into my buddy Titan and everyone starts freaking out and saying hey someone is stealing the top secret jet! so we're trying to get lift but we weren't going very fast.  I thought "hey jesse why are you driving so slow there is no way we are going to make it over that fence." We didn't.

  Soooo we had to turn around and try again but this time we are going towards the base but still going way too slow.  surprisingly (but no that surprisingly) no one tries to do anything to stop us. (they most have known our cause was a just one) but I say "Jesse, we aren't going to have room look we need to go to the road so we have more space to lift off!" so we go over there and I'm like oh i hope we don't run anyone off the road, and then i see a car coming up on the side of us (yes, the car passed a top secret jet. i'm telling you jesse was driving like a gramma, or how a gramma would drive if she were driving a JET!!!! COME ON JESSE PICK IT UP A BIT!!)  Anyways I look down and who is there but good ole' stephanie nickerson and her family.  I'm thinking hey thats stephanie nickerson whats she doing here and then she starts waving at me and Titan so I'm like hey look it's stepanie nickerson and titan was like we need to lift off now! so i yell at jesse to speed up and we lifted up and then. . .

I woke up.  thanks a lot boss for calling me and telling me we aren't working today till 4 cuz it rained too much yesterday.  awesome.  now we'll never know if the geniusy plan was foiled or not.  (deep sigh)
