Well, I did it. I asked out Kiley. When I got to her house, her dad was there this time to meet me. The cool thing was, I wasn't afraid of him. He put on the whole tough guy persona, but I didn't really care. I'm not saying that I don't respect him, because I do. I'm saying that I wasn't afraid of him because I knew that I wouldn't do anything stupid on the date. I had no doubt that I was able to maintain mine as well as her standards. I picked her up at seven and went ice skating. I thought it was a pretty good idea because it gave us ample opportunity to talk. Once again, I found that both of us had no shortage of things to talk about. And it wasn't stupid stuff either. We actually had serious conversations, short though they were. We even talked about marriage. Well, not between us. But it's fun to say that and see people's reactions. After ice skating, I took her out to eat at Wingers. She'd never been there before. Pretty cool. We took our time eating, again conversing amongst ourselves. After that, I took her home. Her curfew was at midnight, and I had her home by 10:30. I think I scored a few points with her dad that way. The thing I liked most about spending time with Kiley is that she is on the same spiritual level as I am. I had no idea how nice that could be. I felt like I could talk to her about things like that. Apparently, both of our favorite stores is Deseret Book. I feel like I have to treat Sara like a two year old. Spiritually, that's what she is. And it frustrates the heck out of me that she seems to not care that much. I mentioned this to my bishop and he informed me that if she would not seek help on her own, we were under obligation to make help go to her. And she probably won't like it. The weird thing is, I feel like I sin if I so much as touch her arm. In other words, Derek, stay away from her. I have work for you to do. General Conference is next week! Man I can't wait for it! I'm going to take notes, lots of notes. I had a thought. After Priesthood session, I'm going to go out with some girl and tell her every thing I learned. I'm thinking maybe Arielle, but I'm still undecided. If I can't take her, it would be fun to take Shanna, and probably less stressful because she's 23. Either way, I want to talk to SOME girl just so I can remember what I was taught and so I can teach someone who wasn't able to be there. "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (Romans 10: 17) I want to go already.
