Church bulletin 9/7/03
Anna: I really think he's losing it. He hasn't been acting right lately.
Me: No one does in this church.
Anna: David is actually from Texas this guy who is homeless and he came to church, and the Wilkinsons welcomed him in their hearts and home. Obviously.
Me: Um, he's old? Is he jobless too? Does the church plan to pay his rent too?
Anna: I think he's around 23 I think. Last I heard he was working at KFC and Burger King.
Me: So where do you see yourself in 7 years? What do you want accomplished by then, and who could you see yourself married to?
Anna: Done with college, have lived on my own for at least two or three years. I would like to either have a very steady boyfriend or a husband. A good job. Right now the only kind of person I want to marry is a Christian. I don't know what kind of personalities that I want yet.
Me: What would he look like? and make something up if you have to. What would you want him to look like?
Anna: I would have ot say brown hair and blue or grey eyes, tall, broad.
Me: Stocky/built or lean?
Anna: Between lean and built. Are you building me a man for my birthday?
Me: I've turned into an evil scientist. What would you want your last name to be. Wht about his name?
Anna: Anything that doesn't start with an S. I don't care what his name is.
Me: If you could name yourself, what would you choose?
Anna: What the hell is this?
Me: 20 questions, I'm on a roll.
Anna: Oh yeah you are.
Me: WELL?
Anna: Holly. lol.
Me: Be SERIOUS.
