Good Friday
Can we do a little catching up? I feel like we haven't talked in forever! In reality, it has only been about 3 days since I last posted, but it sure does feel like a month.
Last time we visited, I had just lost my job. Don't worry! I'm still fired. That much has not changed. Phew. I was supposed to stay through the week, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized how crappy that would've been. They fired me, but they so desperately need me in the office? Nope. That won't do.
I will start my new job on Monday. I think I'll like it. I'm trying to be positive.
We saw "The Chronicles of Narnia" last night. David and I both read all of the Chronicles of Narnia series as children and adults, way before the movie was born. And as a self-proclaimed Chronicles of Narnia expert, I can say that the movie was brilliantly done. I loved Lucy's character--she was just like the Lucy that I made up in my head. Susan was just as annoying in the movie as she was in the books, and Peter the Magnificent was just as handsome and brave as I dreamed in my childhood he would be. Edmond was a little skinner than I had pictured.
Aslan? He was perfect. He was absolutely perfect. By the end of the movie, I was a kid again, riding on Aslan's back, holding tightly to his maine. What a GREAT movie!
This Sunday is Easter. I really recommend renting the movie, even if you've already seen it. It's an amazing depiction of Christ's love and sacrifice for his children. The movie kept reminding me of a verse:
"I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. "
Philippians 3:10-12
Anyway, that's all. It's good to be back!

Glad to have you back! So you just haven't been working this week? I think that is a fantastic idea. Rest up for the new job. Starting a new job is probably my least favorite thing EVER. I don't start enjoying it until a couple of months in when I feel comfortable with everything. I like to overacheive 8-)
I am very sad about this movie because I only made it through like 30 minutes and then Lane said "he couldn't hold his eyes open anymore" and we went to bed & then we sent it back to netflix. Sad. I REALLY want to see it though. Maybe I'll go rent it today at the DREADED movie gallery.
You should TOTALLY go to the Movie Gallery- it was SO good. Totally worth it.
And Edmond was skinnier than I imagined too.
How is the new job going?
