Dundalk, Part 16

Thank you all for the videos! I won't be replying to some of you individually, but I enjoyed seeing your beautiful faces and hearing your voices! Laura, where's your video? Justin, what did you name your pet snake? Here are some ideas:
(Male): Reginald, Auschwitz, Wesker, Imbicolen, Otis, Elder Christiansen, or Mr. Bond
(Female): Excella, Vanderwitz, Mikayla, Clever-Girl, or Bluebell McFarghelstine

I drive still. It's a bit funny how many times I've almost gotten us killed on the road. I hate driving in Ireland. In Canada, it's pretty good; traffic is mild, roads are wide, people are courteous. Not here. People are vicious savages on wheels, roads are more narrow than a common bike-path, and traffic is like eating a bad batch of sour crout--it's going nowhere, fast. 

Anyways, about my english companion...he's english. What else can I say? There: character profile done. I'm kidding. He's really cool. He's funny. And he's a really good cook. He's been out on his mission for 16 months, so he's experienced. He has eight siblings, and he is the 2nd youngest. 

Alicia is always great to talk to. Things are not getting any easier with her family, so she's thinking she might just go ahead and be baptized anyway. She's a piece of fried gold. Jude, on the other hand, didn't show up to his own baptism. For the second time in a row. LAME! and disappointing. and also, kinda funny. We totally miscalculated his readiness, so we're taking a step back and reteaching him a few things. 

Dad, that was an awesome song! I wish I had a guitar. We're not allowed guitars though. 

Well, the last few attempts at pumpkin pie were so depressing (they tasted as bad as they looked) that I had decided to give up. But then Aunt Suzanne sent me a new recipe, so I said ''screw it'' and made another one. It was much better, and actually tasted pretty good! I wish it was denser, but whatever. 

Tell me about my cousin in the Marshall islands! How is she? How much longer until her homecoming? How do you spell her name? I've been meaning to ask about her for a while, but never remember to. 

By the way, I'm totally the favorite missionary in the ward! Scotland/Ireland, son! I be international up in here! I guess technically he is too, but come on! It's me we're talking about. You know that froking Bishop Pierson hasn't emailed me once, even though I've sent to him a bunch? His daughter is also no good at emailing. What is with the world? No matter. Dad's beard makes him look like a forester. 

SeeY'ALLlaterloveyoubye!
