Evening!

Re: Evening!

  • I think I've been to NC. I went to my best friend's graduation from basic boot camp. I think it was in Charleston. I don't really remember, though. ;p
  • Hey kids!

    Just got home from work.  It was my last day working with this first year medical student.  He wrote me the sweetest thank you note.

    Now I'm eating goat curry and drinking wine.
  • Chrissy- How are things going in the new place and with the new job?

    Speaking of cousin weddings, my Mormon cousin is getting married this summer and I'm wondering if I'll get an invite. I can't attend the actual wedding, but perhaps he'll invite me to the reception. I'm the black sheep, so we'll see!

    ETA: I would actually be thrown out of the ceremony, because I'm not Mormon.

    <div>Ignorant question -> Are you not allowed because you're no longer Mormon? </div>
  • Nevermind, you answered while I was asking. 
  • ...wait, how do people mispronounce Raleigh?
  • Poke, I'm ridiculously jealous you're moving to England.

    Actually, I'm jealous of everyone who lives somewhere even remotely cool.  Long Island is just so... not cool.

    Aryn, yeah. In order to enter a Mormon temple you have to have gone through some ceremony I forget the name of. Annointment maybe? 

    You have to be Mormon to be annointed, and I never made it that far. Mormon wedding ceremonies are WEIRD. Blood oaths, heavenly names, annointing with oil...weird.

  • Steph, Long Island seems really cool to me. 
  • Erin, does that mean children of Mormons are also banned from Mormon ceremonies (since, I take it, the annointing thing is something that happens later in life)?

    So I am watching live TV which is rare and I keep forgetting and trying to fast forward through the commercials.

    <div>Well, it's my understanding that it's pronounced "RAH - LEE" whereas the town in England is pronounced "RAY - LEE". And I know a lot of people here pronounced it "RAY - LEE" and are usually corrected lol.</div>

    </div><div>Yeah. Adults only. Most people are annointed when they get married if they are a woman, or when they go on their mission if they are a male. If you are a female and you go on a mission, you are probably ugly and didn't get married in a normal timeframe. No joke.

  • Muni - NC is awesome!  I was just there in February and fell in love.  I was in Raleigh, Asheville and Charlotte.  Still trying to talk H into moving there almost 3 months later. 

    Erin, I grew up in a predominately Mormon area so I've stood outside the Temple for more weddings than I can count.

  • Speaking of Mormons, have you guys seen that spoof video of Mitt Romney that someone put together of random things he's said? I showed it to FI and he was like, "All that stuff was taken out of context, it doesn't say anything about what he actually believes." So what dude, it's just supposed to be funny.

  • Petal, YGPM again!

    I've never heard anyone pronounce it RAY-LEE...

    I have a cousin named Raleigh and then I moved to Raleigh.  ...cool story.  needs more dragons.
  • That is sweet Mica. It always is nice to get a note from students. Maybe he is also hot for the teacher ;)

    I've never heard it pronounced Ray-lee.

  • Erin -- I won't lie.  Today was a cool day.  But I definitely have days when you would not want my job.
  • Also, Chrissy, FI says he's on it.  and "Yum"
