This week was pretty good, we found some good seeming investigators, had Zone Conference, i went on exchanges with the ZL's, or Elder Carlson to be precise, which if ya'll remember he was my MTC companion! So that was way fun.
So at Zone Conference it was all good and great and everything, but i keep my pen hooked onto my shirt under my button's because my pocket isn't big enough to fit it... Well my pen came out of the lid and i didn't find out till who know's how long later... so my shirt was ruined with red ink Everywhere on my shirt, and i only brought that shirt for the exchange that was happening right after zone-con. So i had to buy a new one in Paducah. Then the next day while i'm still in paducah, just barely got my new shirt and a recent convert called and asked if he could take us out for dinner. Sweet! So we find out he just picked up his kids and he also just got a brand new puppy for his daughter... I'm sitting in the back next to this little girl and her new puppy while Elder Carlson is up front. So we go to this place called Catfish Kitchen a few miles outside of town, and everyone knows i don't like fish... Well luckily they also had some chicken tenders. But the Recent Convert guy, James, wants us to experience Kentucky so he orders some frog legs for us to eat as well.... Shoot dang, it was nasty. but i ate half of it and took the other half home.
So after dinner we get to the car to find that the puppy pooped all over the seat, Luckily it wasn't my seat, Haha, but James was a champ about it so he just cleaned it up and off we go with me in back next to the girl again. About 1 minute away from our car this little girl kinda looks at me and say's
"I don't feel so good" and grabs a jacket and puts it over her mouth.
So i'm thinking to myself 'Nah, she's just messin' with me."
Then she starts to look real queasy and i think that stuff's about to get real. She's still looking in my direction!!! so i try my darnedest to get her to look the other way at her brother instead of me and then it happens... Projectile vomit all over, but luckily she looked more straight ahead at that second so i was able to nimbly avoid almost all of it. Round 2! A lot more projectile vomit comes and get's all over my shoes and somehow it cover's my right butt cheek too... She also got throw up all over her puppy the first time and before i could get out of the car when we got to Our car, the dog somehow got behind me on the seat and then jumped on my shoulder and then got stuck in between my back and the seat.
And there you have it... the story of how i lost an entire outfit on a single exchange.
Oh and later that night we get home and we find the most random thing crawling by our door... A Craw-dad!?!?! The heck?! there isn't even water anywhere near their apartments!
Well, that'll be all for this week, sorry for the long story that took up the whole letter :)
Love Ya'll
-Elder Martin
