Au Revoir Seattle!!!

Not for good. Don't get all upset! Sheesh. Ahhh... I am cali/disneyland/expensive L.A. dining bound for the weekend. Woot! Ask me what the weather is like down there? How's the weather you ask? Oh, well, it's a smoldering 80 compared to our native 44 right now in Seattle!!! Am I excited? You bet your weet hoo ha I am. This is what Cali was like in September when I was there for work:


This is me happy in the sun.



This is me happy in the water.



This is me happy behind the lens of a camera because I am looking at cute boys.

Oh... this is me happy in the sun again.

I know what you're thinking... this was a work trip? I know, rough life. And somehow I find reasons to complain! Goodness, we're all so ungrateful, me included. Well, you all can make fun of me when I get back from the Cali with a Mickey Mouse ears tan on my forehead!! Oh my gosh, I love Dland. I'm 25, get over it!! Child at heart over here. ;)

K... be on the look out for a post about the good time I had. In the meantime, I'll be thinking about you all!! ...wasting away in this trash weather. Haha. Kidding... but seriously.

Jessica Dickinson?

K... Most of you don't know this. In fact, I would assume none of you know this about me. I write poetry. For the most part its nothing to brag about but I do it all the same. I find very often that I don't have the words; that I experience an emotion but can't explain it. Poetry is passion and it speaks to me. It speaks to me in the way an abstract painting speaks to me, it's raw and its real. I'm sharing a poem with you that I wrote the other day. It's very ryhmy and maybe not very good, but it came to me. It's mostly inspired by my testimony... Jesus Christ has saved my life. Here it is:

Wandering in darkness, stumbling I fall,
Not seeking, not listening, I faint hear your call,
The void I feel daily and how do I fill?
With parties that poison and drugs that could kill,
In a time of deep loss on my knee's where I found,
My savior who loves me with glory abound,
In mercy and grace you led me from sin,
Put joy in my life where joy's never been,
Daily I thank you for changing my heart,
I desire to be near you never to part.
