Just some stuff I've been thinking...
Bryden Place - Rock on. Those people know how to have a good time despite unpleasant circumstances. Worship with the BP folks is always awesome because they don't care how well or how poorly you play/sing/flail arhythmically, they just worship and sing along. One of the residents just started singing while I was strumming on some chords making sure that I was in tune (I was, almost), and so we started worship immediately. Way to kick us into gear.
Then, craft time came around: making prayer bracelets. Oh dear. We had 5 guys and one girl sitting around the table. How could this possibly turn out well.
Well, goes to show you can't doubt the Holy Spirit... the craft rocked. The guys were happy just talking about their kids, their wives(?), their fellow residents. When it came time for prayer ministry, they really got into it. It was the most responsive group I've seen in a long time. I should guest lead more often. It really does make my day. And what can I say, I love making little beaded things.
School - How does it always seem to happen that I get to two weeks left in the quarter and never know it's been that long since the quarter started? And how am I going to get myself out the hole of work I've dug for myself. Certainly not by blogging...
Music - Going through lots of old CD's, remembering those one hit wonders of the early 2000's. Ah, those were my formative years... of college... and my M.A.
School again - Hold it now... how is it that I'm currently teaching some students who were born in 1990... this kind of madness has to stop. I didn't even move BACK to Ohio until 1989 when I was 8. I remember things that happened in 1990. These kids wouldn't really even remember Bill Clinton's inauguration in 1993. I was in 6th grade. It's just cruel I tell ya. And don't even post something about how I'm a young whippersnapper and how you remember Regan's inauguration in 1981 because I'm dwelling on ME right now. ME.
That's about it. I promised Manda I'd try to write a song today. So I'm off to try. OH... and to get some work done. Yeah. That's it. Work.
A+

thanks for your willingness to lead worship there, andy. i love that you are willing to come on a non-homegroup night to help us out. thank you, thank you, thank you! also, you do a great job. :)
the prayer beads were such a great way to have conversation with the residents there. i thought it was funny that it pretty much ended up being all men, too. :D
