Okay, if I ever get to be a full time missionary, I don't know what I'll name my blog, because this girl already has the best title.
Even though I spent most of my time with Stephanie my last year or so of college, we are not exactly very similar at all. Who I AM similar to is her roommate Elizabeth. Seriously, sometimes I worry we are the same person living in two different bodies. We are cynical, hilarious, intelligent, and awesome. Yeah, I went there.
Anyway. She is the one who told me about this blog, and I'm so glad she did! Jamie sounds like exactly the sort of person I want to hang around. She casually throws curse words and Jesus into her posts. I LOVE HER. She loves fiercely, she has a witty personality, and she's committed to sharing Jesus with people in Costa Rica. Can I be her?
AND ALSO. She is married! And has kids! Y'all know I have serious issues with boys and marriage and especially kids. I tend to see that whole process as separate from missionary work. My brain can't fit the two together, despite seeing people like the Forsythes do exactly that. I guess Kim just seems too perfect (though weird! and obvs, I love you Kim if you still read this).
But Jamie? Like I said. She discusses boobage and says rat's ass before waxing poetic about Scripture. If she can be that open and honest and fantastic while married, well then, SIGN ME UP. I never knew I could still be cool if I were a missionary AND married.
Read her. And if you are offended by the ass thing, then...I'm sorry. The rest of her blog is well worth a word or two.
Yay! Glad you like it. :)
ReplyDeleteOk...so I went over there and read the first post. Then the next one, and the next one. And the next. Now I am following her. I have only followed people I know, so this is new. But I think I am in love. <3
