SORRY I HAD TO WRITE A REALLY LONG LETTER TO PRESIDENT, SO I DIDN'T HAVE VERY MUCH TO WRITE YOU GUYS. SO SORRY. So this week was pretty good. Its starting to get a little steamy over here. It feels really hot. This week was a little wacky. We had a lot of dumb bike problems. Bike problems make me so mad, they are just horrible wastes of time. We had a really funny experience. We were riding along, and then we noticed that Elder Prieto had a huge chunk of metal stuck in his bike tire. I was frustrated because we were stuck in our area, far from our apartment, and not a bike shop in sight. So we locked up the bikes and walked from one end of our area to the other, so that the other Elders could pick us up for reinforcements. We got to the other side and we're standing there waiting when Elder Prieto asks me "Where was that picture taken and why were there so many potties in one place?I believe that was on Oak Street and Chestnut in my area. I have no idea. I don't understand a lot of the things people do around here.  You never did answer my question about the medical copay from last week.  Was that for your back or something else?  Oh that was just for my third and final hep. shot. 3 good things about the week? 1. Our ward had a baptism on Saturday, some girl from Columbia was visiting her aunt who is a member and lives in Irvine. Her aunt took her to church every week for the last month and she just decided to get baptized before she left. Its amazing, some Elders just have baptisms fall out of the sky for no reason ha ha. But its all good. Something funny? Me and Elder Prieto got really into the the toys you sent me. We both got the Bilbo on the spindle after hours of practice and we just freaked out ha ha.  Also the woman who moved away out the blue last week, well we found her! Ha ha it was so funny. She was shocked when we showed up at her door after doing some detective work. She thought she could escape! Contacts?  (Name and + comment) Ada- She is a member, got  baptized like 10 years ago in Mexico, but moved to the US 5 years later and hasn't been in a church since. We just found her knocking doors. So we're going to help her come back to church. Have you turned into a little gang banger while you have lived in California?  First, a picture of you at your service project holding your hand like a gun and then sporting a gun tie tack.  I have always been a gang banger. Are transfers next week? Yes. I'm out of here. I think I'm going to Garden Grove. How's life with Elder Prieto?  You sent a picture of him with a cake.  Was it his birthday recently? It's alright. Sometimes I don't do as good a job as should as the senior comp, but he is cool and we actually have a lot in common. It was his birthday actually. Did you get the Williamsburg toys I sent?  Did it remind you of the garage sales last year?  :)  I did. They are awesome. We are going bowling today as well, so Lance Storm is really going to be going at it with his new tie. Anything you need?  I need cartridges for my typewriter. I couldn't find them at Staples. I'll send pictures. Also I need to get better at typewriting in general. I am typing so slow today. Its almost time to go and I have barely written anything to you. Its so frustrating. I'm making so many mistakes. Ugh. I feel bad for not writing too much. I hope you know that I love you.
