Dear Fellow Readers,
Since I am currently in Florida with my two main readers (mom & dad), I assume there won’t be great upheaval if I don’t write a serious blog this week. (Am I ever that serious?) I wanted to take this afternoon off and soak up the sun, but since I went outside yesterday for one hour with no sun screen, I look like this.
She said what?
This week I had the pleasure of speaking with my Pops. It was a great honor and I was able to assist in a Q&A event at Abiliene Christian University in Texas. The school has about 5,000 students and Apple uses them as a test market. All of the students have iPhones and possibly iPads in the future. SIGN ME UP SCOTTY!
The second event was at Ft. Lauderdale Calvary Chapel in the young adults group called Eikon. My friend Erin who I met while at L’Abri in Switzerland came up from West Palm for the talk and it was so much fun having her there. She only booed twice, which was encouraging. She’s usually a real downer.
Tech World 2000
The “Ask Me” section of the blog seemed to be having some malfunctions. I used to get a lot of email submissions with no content. So either people just really go “click happy” over the submit button, or there was a problem. JohnBrown (I say his name as one word) who is my genius programmer made some updates today and the questions seem to be working most of the time. It may be a server issue…who knows. I can barely turn my computer on, let alone understand techy jargon. So…if you submitted a question prior to last week, please re-submit and I will try to help you figure out why your boyfriend left you for the older Barista at Starbucks. He has mommy issues….or really likes free Frappucinos.
Hollywood Bound
My apologies for what you are about to see, but it will give you a little glimpse into the “day in and day out.” My friend Leah Brown is in film school and she had to do a project interviewing someone at their job. We took it very seriously. She probably got an A+…or kicked out of school.
Hope everyone has a wonderful week. For those of you who are snowed in, my sincere apologies. I feel your pain, the A.C. in this Florida hotel room is up way too high and I am FREEZING!
Sincerely,
Joy, President of www.loveandrespectnow.com

you are a nut. I love you!
Ahh… please don’t break your ankle running on a treadmill with mid-calf, low-heeled boots. Thanks.
Loved this. Loved seeing you! Glad you and Erin had fun in Fl.
Kristina–great meeting you too, and thank you so much for the encouragement. When you are done with all your studies we should grab coffee!
Val–you should see what I can do in my high-heels.
Hey now. I read your blog too. =)
Love the video! (I may have been slightly distracted by the fact that your hair is amazing.) (And you are in FL and I’m stuck in MI.)
But in all seriousness, I’m also extremely interested in relationships with the 18-25 group. I want to get it right too, and I especially want to help others do so. If you ever need a 20-year-old engaged girl to interview, drop me an e-mail, ok?
Hope your sunburn goes away asap!

Kristina Rhodes thinks...
Not true Joy! I read your blog. 🙂 It was very nice to meet you several weekends ago at Imago. I’ve heard all about your work from my parents (Don and Lisbeth Rhodes) and am so encouraged and inspired. I am a single woman too who, thanks to amazing parents and a gracious Heavenly Father, is unwilling to settle. Thank you for your blog. I enjoy reading it.
ps, I’m a senior studying PR. So fun that you studied comm too!
