Crazy Virginians!

So, I've been here in Virginia for about a little over a month now and it never ceases to amaze me the crazy people I run in to. Just yesterday I spoke to a gentleman who swore up and down he didn't need home security because he was personally responsible for the protection of the Vice President of the United States. He couldn't tell me which VP he was over protecting because I doubt he really ever was.

To cap the day off I decided to knock on one more door just after 9 o'clock becasue Summ said if I sell 13 this week I get to see one of her bridal pictures. I ended up selling the guy and on what i don't exactly know cause he really didn't care for the security aspects. He wanted to go to bed so i hurry and told him everything and he left me with his 80 year old live in to finish up paperwork. I finished up and instead of scheduling the job for another day i told her it was going in that night. She said there was no way she was going to let anyone come in and disturb her while she watched "GOD LIVE", a tv revival. To make sure the techs could get the job done I sat and watched "GOD LIVE" with an 80 year old lady for about 45 minutes. She was amazed that the preacher on the tv, who was covered in tatoos and screaming at the top of his lungs, could heal so many back problems and cause so many to faint. I was amazed that I lasted the 45 minutes! All in all it was a rewarding experience for both of us.

Time keeps slowly tickin and I can't wait to be back in Utah. I miss Summ like crazy and can't wait to bring her out here with me.
