Week 23: Racoon Slayer

I have taken on a new nickname as I have hit my very first small animal with a car. I don't know if I mentioned it earlier, but I am currently the driver in the area so I am driving on the daily.  A couple of nights ago there were 2 racoons in the road just chillin, so I decided to do the only reasonable thing and hit it.  If it were a squirrel or something I might have felt bad, but racoons are straight mean, so I didn't feel too bad about it.  I've seen so much roadkill since I arrived in Tennessee and it's so rewarding to join the club that contributes to that roadkill. I feel like I'm getting more southern every day.

We haven't been going down to Farragut to hang out with other missionaries and play basketball recently so we have had a lot more time on P-days to hang out with just the 4 of us in Rockwood and shoot some hoops and stuff.

Thanksgiving is going to be so tough. We have like 2000 appointments we got invited to and narrowing it down to the ones you want to go to is pretty hard, especially with a limited amount of food you can fit in your stomach.

Well, that's about everything. I'm pretty sure Thanksgiving is this upcoming week or something. I really don't remember since the real Thanksgiving was like over a month ago and people don't tell us to come over on "X" day. They just say Thanksgiving.

Peace.

Love,
