Well the roomies probably got ripped a new one in Oakland today by President, but the verdict is - that they are not going home. And the bad news is that one of them is coming back to live at our apartment. They are good people but I guess they just lost their purpose as missionaries. I know that they can be great missionaries - they have the potential, they just choose to disobey. Well, this week has been really slow. This morning got off to a slow start as well. We went to Danville so E. Cain could interview one of Sis. Roger's and Tsai's investigators for baptism. Her name is Valarie. She is an older lady, and is so wonderful! Right when I first met her, she wanted to give me a hug - and it was hard to refuse :( But she is soooo excited to be baptized! It is awesome! She has been prepared and is ready for this. While E. Cain interviewed her, I had a good talk with Sis. Rgers and Tsai. They are awesome. Today we met with James again. We set the plan to meet at this wing place in Dublin to eat lunch. I was cool with that, but when we got there, I didn't realize that it was a bar and grill. There was TV's everywhere and music playing, and it felt kind of weird being in "the world" again. We were supposed to have a good talk with James, but a bar and grill is not a place where the spirit dwells. It wasn't good. We weren't breaking any rules or anything, but I just didn't feel good. But I did eat one of their spiciest/hottest hot wings and it was insane! I was on fire! E. Cain did the challenge and ate 12 of them in under 3 minutes. I was proud of him.
