Sorry mom I got really presured on time this week. Just know that I love you. Ok? Ok. Everything is good. I'm going to try to think of a good birthday gift today, and I will send a type-written letter to you. I love you dude! So long!

How's your back?  Did you ask about something to make your bed more comfortable?  I need to get your birthday stuff in the mail next Saturday so you will for sure have it in time for your 20th birthday.  How exactly did that happen?  You were just a little fella a couple of days ago.  I remember you being the troll in your kindergarten program just like it was yesterday. 

I have no idea. I think this Dr. guy could be a total quack. He is treating Elder S as well and he is getting worse. We have this theory that he is just giving us his "missionary treatment" which consists of a back cracking and a kick in the pants on the way out the door.

Any ideas, wants, or needs for your birthday?  Is there a Chili's or some restaurant that I could treat you to on your birthday?  I would offer Applebee's, but Sam says we can't go there until the day you come home. 

Haha I don't recall having seen an Applebee's nor a Chili's yet on my mission. I can't really think of any needs. I have no idea what I want for my birthday. I'm starting to have doubts about the bed pad as well. I can never decide. Maybe just nothing will be alright.

Is your birthday the week of the next transfer?

Nope, The following week.

3 good things about the week?

1. Exchanges with Elder S and Elder G  Super fun. It was nice to have some white guy humor back in my life for a couple of days.

2. Got the scoop on transfers. I'll keep it a secret until next week.

3. Found a laundromat that charges half price of the one we had been previously using. So I was pretty excited about that.

Something funny that happened this week?  Hopefully, you won't have another story about Elder P's bike.  Is his bike more desirable to thieves than yours? 

I suppose so. Well something funny, me and Elder S went on exchanges. We were knocking doors in his complex and he met this crazy dude who invited us in to talk. He was white, just so you know. But anyways we got to talking and he mentioned something about his female roommate. I asked him if he was his girlfriend and he responded "No, just because two people live together, doesn't mean that they're a thing. Are you two a couple?" I said no, and he said "Oh too bad, that would be really sexy if you were. You are both a couple of very good looking guys" And I just blurted out laughing. He wasn't gay, he was just giving us crap. It was really funny the way he said it.

What does find "los de oro" mean? 

The ones of gold.

Will you be emailing on Memorial Day or will I have to wait an extra day or two to hear from you?

I have no idea. I haven't heard anything about that yet.  

Do the members in your ward ever refer their friends?

No they don't really trust us. We're kinda having a feud with the ward. Our ward mission leader is kinda cutting our knees out a little bit with the rest of the ward. I don't really understand it, but its alright.

Investigators?  (Name and + comment, please)

Kevin-Baptism date for the 9 of June.

Daniel-Lazy. Going to be dropped.

There's a few others, but none are really major players quite yet.
