Well, what a day. We had another baptism. We’re now at 33. 1 away, 2 to break it. I am on a new kick to follow the spirit. I’m trying. Nothing cool happened I guess.

Well, we worked hard today and also through a few really really good people. Some or Fearlessing. I also talked to Brownsville this morning and told them to take a cake to the Veley mother (I forgot her name) they did it on Sunday. I committed her to get baptized on Wednesday. Stop smoking on Sudnay and get baptized on Wednesday. Ya. She said OK. Now she is excited. She was talking about how excited she was for Wednesday. That’s so cool. I guess that one was the Spirit and happens to be 2 days before her birthday. Nice. Very nice.

That OK though. Well, we got back and Went to have our baptisms and Iliana is not married. Wow, all that and they are not married. Wow. And we found out Fidel is not married. Auhhh! After his baptism and he’s getting the priesthood. Wow, well, it will all be worked out. Iliana and her husband will get married and baptized next week.

There is a new record and we are currently at 36 with 5 days to go still. I don’t think we’ll go over 40. Some people just don’t want to. Oh, I got caught staring at a lady’s breasts last night. I guess I wasn’t really doing it badly or on purpose. She had a very open shirt and lots there. With a wooden cross. And I even got stuck kinda daydreaming I was tired and not even conscious of it. Really ooops. Guess that tomorrow is my B-day. I did feel kinda bad [Elder] came to go with us and I didn’t get to go with him. They made me go on splits with a few of the other missionaries. […]

My B-Day. It was cool. We had zone meeting here then we went to eat and work. Then a member had a party for me and had a cake and stuff. That was cool. She is so nice. We went on splits after that I went with Brownsville. It was OK though. because at Yolenes home we found out that she has a cousin who lives next to us. That is going to come to church and get baptized. Oh ya. I didn’t have a problem with that. Anyhow.

Well, we went out and worked and saw the lady who I was staring at her breasts and she said I was doing it again and I wasn’t. This time so now I just think she’s crazy now. Well, things went OK then we went out to a restaurant we said we would go to after we broke the record. It was nice. We also had a born-agian Christian buy us pizza. He had a big old wad of money he was very kind to us. He pulled a Charles McFarlin and acted like he owned the pizza place. I was indeed a little depressed. Dang.
