"I just walked into my bathroom and found a wet rat sitting on the toilet seat." Just imagine the chain of events that occurred before she walked into the bathroom.

Right now, I wish…
...it was a cool evening in Atlanta and I was sitting on the porch of Cafe Intermezzo drinking hot chocolate and eating derby pie with my connect group. Before we got banned from Cafe Intermezzo forever, anyway.
From Denver to Boulder…
The drive is beautiful!
Napol Mondragon here.
Hello everyone, This is Napol and this is my first official post on my own blog. I am in the Helena, MT airport right now watching a River Runs Through It (It was filmed in Montana if you are wondering why) dreaming of someday getting a chance to raise a family here. False. I am not doing…
What did you just call me?
People frequently say my name wrong. Although I think it's an easy name to pronounce, most of the time I'm called the wrong name at work, where I'm wearing a nametag that says "Jillian" in bold letters.

Praise Jesus!
A miracle has occurred. Coleman has found a Chick-fil-A in Denver! It's 45 minutes away, but it exists nonetheless. I hope they'll sell gallons of sweet tea in the drive thru. Another miracle is this: I feel happy today! As anyone may have noticed from my negative attitude about everything over the last month, this move…
Observations
1. Why does NBC feel that Coldplay and Kanye West are the only artists who can truly accentuate an Olympic montage? 2. Speaking of the Olympics, it was exactly 20 years ago, during the 1988 Olympic games in Seoul, Korea, when 4-year-old Jillian was watching the women's floor routines in the living room by herself, decided she wanted…
