Proposal

Well friends, I've officially been proposed to! (minus the ring and the sincerity...)

It all started that night at Taco Bell. I was workin' the late shift as usual when he sauntered in the door. Of all the locations in Omaha, he had to walk into mine. Alright I lied, he pulled up to the drive-thru microphone. But anywho, I greeted him with the usual "Hi, how are you?"

Him: "Oh hi! I'm looking for a wife!"
Awkward pause from everyone in the store. Manager looks at me and raises an eyebrow.
As cooly as I can: "Sorry, I don't think I'll be able to help you with that."
He laughs. "Aw that's ok. I'll just get..........(I forgot what he ordered.)

He drove up to the window and was a middle aged man with a nine year old girl in the seat next to him. My manager joked after he left, "he totally looks your type!"
"Oh yeah!" I replied. "I always wanted to marry a guy and have a daughter 10 years younger than me!"

Taco Bell is so entertaining to work at.

Finally, some concrete progress!

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the page for my mission paper checklist. Next to each task is a check mark that was either not there or was only gray -- signifying that the task was incomplete. As you can see.....THEY ARE ALL CHECKED OFF!!!!! And as the bottom says, I have officially finished my paperwork for my mission papers and now it's time to get an interview with my Bishop and Stake President to complete the process and begin the wait for my call!!!

If you can't tell, I am extremely excited for my mission. It's probably funny to read my blog from earlier in the year when the age change was first announced and I had no idea what I was doing with my life. I am so happy that I have made this concrete decision and am preparing to devote 18 months to doing work that I love! So much better than Taco Bell....haha don't tell my boss.

In other news, I've also updated my pictures for my LDS casting page. If my look is still liked and needed, I could spend another part of the summer back in Utah with my dad filming for the LDS New Testament videos! Here's a link to some of the current ones that are out. I'm not in any that are out yet but if you see a Moses looking guy, yup! that's my dad! Oh yeah, and he was in a picture in the Ensign! Us Gill's are getting famous ;)

One other note, tomorrow will be the first of hopefully many weekly Sunday Singing's at our house! My mom decided we could invite all our friends over to partake in some awesome nerd-music time and share treats and good times! So I am currently making a ton of cookies and if you are reading this before tomorrow, you are welcome to come as well!

Car next door and April fools

Just had to share another funny story. I was coming home from visit-teaching with Kate and we were stopped in the left turn lane next to a white car. Kate talks with her hands a lot and the guys in the car next door thought she was waving at them. They started waving ferociously and Kate rolled down the window.
Kate: "Hey, how are you?"
Guys: "Hey! We're gay but you're cute!"
Kate: "Thanks, we're happy too!"
Then the light turned green and we drove away. I love that girl.

Also, a funny snippet from work. A guy placed his order and his total was $6.66. He pulled up to the window. He was a ginger.....coincidence??

On the mission progress....today is April Fools day so I decided to pretend that I've actually gotten my call. I posted that I got called to Fiji on Facebook and my Uncle Joel of all people was the first to comment, a minute after I posted. It's nice to know I've got so much support even though some people are disappointed now. But hey! I am almost done with the paperwork so it could be soon!!!!
