Hey guys.. SOOOO another misadventure with my compadre and loyal friend Cassie occured today.. We had been extremely excited for church all week long. --- Mostly because we were hoping to find some friends and a good selection of HOTT mormon men... But beside the point. Anyways.. I got the directions yesterday from our trusty friend and reliable resource.. MAPQUEST.. :) Yes.. And well being the intelligent and so intuitive gal that I am, I decided to not write down the directions nor read the directions.. BUt instead chose to look at the map and say.. "Okay I know where to go." Of course my simple intelligence proved me wrong this morning once again.. haha.
We were traveling on our merry little way and I said I know its on 94th Ave. We.. as usual.. were going the opposite direction. So then we turn around and start heading toward 94th Ave.. {{{ Pre-story.... We thought we knew where OUR church building was because we had already found one LDS church building. }}} We were also headed the opposite direction of where we thought our church was. ... Then Lo and Behold.. the green street sign of 94th Ave beckons our call.. Of Course.. being a religious person.. I choose the "right" and tell her to take a right down 94th. We are driving and driving and driving.. to find nothing but dead ends and subdivisions... not what we are looking for. So then I mention.. "Well.. maybe it was a left on 94th instead of right.. All I know for sure is that it said 94th on the map." .. My compadre and classy driver Cassie informs me that the only things on the left side of 94th are business buildings. So then we head back up a long ways.. (A good 5 miles or so...) back to the church that we had previously visited earlier this week. ... And as it so happens.. that was not our church building.. the lady with the baby in the foyer threw us the hint. Family Ward. --- Definetly not singles ward.. hahaha. ... Well back in the car for us.. I told her to try 94th left this time.. And as my curiousity would prove.. there it was.. in all its gray and aged glory.. The singles ward building. We rejoiced that we had found it.. But realized that our scenic routes of driving led us to only being about 45 minutes late to Sacrament meeting... Nice. Haha. But we did make it to Sunday School and Relief Society.. However.. the population of attractive single Mormon men in our ward is on the decrease. Sad tales.. of our first Sunday Service in Seattle.

New at this...
Hey friends...
I just created this blog. I am new at this so bare with me and I am sure I will excite you in more ways than one.. well maybe. First of all, Seattle has been a magnificent dream. Oh dear.. I do love it. AND second of all, my punctuation with this blog will not be proper at all. So if it bugs.. I am sorry. I love to do [...] often, and this ellipsis {the proper name for [...] }will occur quite often, but the punctuation will most likely be used in all the wrong ways. Haha... Anyways hopefully I can entertain you with my witty comments and exciting life. :)
So.. here's to the excitement. During our travels today.. this lovely rainy afternoon.. Cassie, my lovely room-mate and sleepover pal, and I were trying to find our new work... AKA the largest shopping mall in Washington state... (Don't worry about it.. ) And of course.. I, being the "starving" girl that I am, decided to not pay attention to the directions that I had in my lap to the mall and instead, started my grocery list for our after the mall shopping. Yes, I know. Dumb move. Soooo to make a long story short.. AFTER some conversation, witty sparks of embarrassment on my part and a little bit of aggravation... we traveled back and forth to the area of our house numerous times before we figured it out. And needless to say.. I lost my coveted and pride engaging nickname of "Built in GPS" (another story) and I felt a little bit like an idiot for not being a good travel compadre.. considering we are in a territory of the unknown... Nice work Kait. :)
