Dead Batteries and Roman Holidays

I woke up pretty late this morning. Again. Mostly because I was writing last night's journal entry for so long. I don't know about doing this daily thing. So many unnecessary details creep up into the entry, and it takes forever. Well, I'll keep trying. Anyways, I stopped by the church to drop off Brother Meredith's notebook, which I had accidentally taken with me as I got out of his car last night (he gave us a ride back to my place). And I left my car lights on, and I guess my battery had already been pretty drained from leaving my PDA plugged in all Saturday, so there wasn't enough juice to get it started. So I had to go home and call up Becky and Wayne, who came over to help. But they wanted to use my computer and pick up their wedding cake and whatever, so by the time got the car jumped and I got into work, it was noon. I grabbed a couple of Big Macs on the way in and that was lunch.

Then I did a little bit of work before heading off to Sharolyn's for FHE. It was a good FHE. Heidi gave the lesson, and the activity was that silly "ask a question, fold the sheet, and pass it on to someone else" game, where everything gets random and absurd. Afterwards, we all went to the old time movie being shown in Provo Park: Heidi, myself, Mike, Dan, and Angela. We stopped and got some Gandalfo's for dinner. The movie was "Roman Holiday," which I've really been wanting to see for a while. I almost saw it with Kristen a while back, but we went with "Tea with Mussolini" instead. We sort of watched the movie, sort of played pranks the entire time. Then Mike had to leave for work, and Heidi decided that she better get some sleep for work, too, so they went home. Then Dan left, leaving Angela and I. She decided she needed to get to bed about 10:30, before the movie ended, so we walked back to Heidi's house and dropped off the blankets. And then I took Angela home. She's a great girl. A little shy, but becoming less so as I get to know her. And then I came home and watched a little TV and worked on this.
