School is good for now. I just got done with a stressful week and now I am off fr a more relaxing week with less tests and no exams. That will be nice. I am in a rental car right now because my car is being fixed from my accident that occured a month ago. So I am driving a Ford Taurus, I call it my "Granny" car. It really attracts the ladies, lol. Anyway, just wanted to give you a quick update on my life. Anymore it seems so busy to even get time to relax is a far fetched idea right now, but oh well.

The Martha Story

Okay, this is a long story on how I met Martha and got my first date with her. First of all you have to know that it took a lot of work. We first met each other at a Family Home Evening in the Robindale ward. It was a swimming pool party that niether of us were swimming at. Mind you I was dating another girl at this time that I had decided that I was not going to persue a relationship with anymore, but she felt that we were getting married (Ha, I was not ready for that). Martha did not want to be there but her roommates forced her into coming (now I bet she is glad that she went) and I came to give the spiritual thought. That was actually suppose to be my last time in that ward. We ended up sitting across the table from one another eating dinner on the back patio and I noticed that there was something different about Martha. So I began talking to her and I invited her and her roommates to a party the next night at a friends house. Before the party we were suppose to make brownies at a friends apartment. But that did not work all that well since Martha decided not to show up. Sooooo..... I had to ask which neighboring apartment was Martha's and another girls so that I could find out where she lived to make sure that she would come without getting caught by the girl that I was dating at the time. I get over to her apartment only to find her roomates, Maria, Brittney, and Laura. I invited them and got a hold of Maria's phone number to give her directions for latter on that night. I go to the party only to find Martha there laying on a bean bag looking prettier than ever. She even came with a friend of mine that had invited her. So through the night I was trying to get her to pay attention to me but it was kind of hard due to the fact that my buddy Mark was flirting with her on the bean bag trying to get her number. But I was set on talking to her. As the night progressed she ended up by me while we were playing a card game. This is where I laid on some heavy flirting but Martha did not pick up on that, she only wanted to cheat off of my cards. The night came to close and she was getting ready to head home. Well Martha and her roommates needed a ride home. I offered but Mark(the other Mark), the guy who she had originally come with offered to take them home as well. I started telling Mark that I was heading that way and could take them home with no problems. I even tried to give him a hint and said "Go on home, I'll take care of it." I did not even have a reason to go over that way other than to get Martha's number. I was telling them I needed something at Wal-mart when I really didn't. But that did not work because Mark did not pick up on that hint. So that night was a night of no hint pick up's. The sad thing is that I had to try and do this without getting caught by the girl that came with me. At that point I realized that I was interested in Martha. It took a few phone calls to her roommate Maria to get her number and actually talk to her to set up a date. I finally did and we had a blast. I took her to the state line roller coaster and we walked around the mall. It went well, and I even got her home by 7:30 pm. Which she thought was wierd, but I guessed it peaked enough interest to get me a second date(that day was my parent anniversary). From then on my manly charm has won her over. That is how we met, talk about a lot of work on my part. Sheesh!
