Weekend Wrap Up
Friday: Got my hands on a new smart phone. I’ve been wanting one for a real long time. I’ve got an old PDA that I really used a lot back in the day, and so I’ve been itching to get an iPhone or something similar in a phone model.
I decided to pass on the iPhone (even though I really want one), because I just bought a Nano for christmas, so I needed more of a work/office phone. I got the HTC Touch PPC6800. I’m enjoying learning about all the new features available, and excited about integrating it into my scheduling and planning for the church.
Saturday: My wife and I ran our very first 5K in Jesup, GA. It was a blast. Very hard, but fun. We hadn’t really trained much, so we had to alternate between running and walking. But we crossed the finish line together, had a good time enjoying the beautiful weather, and accomplished a goal we had set together. We finished in 41:51. I got second in my age group. She got third in hers. Don’t tell anyone, but there were only 2 in my age group!
Anyways, we knew going in that we’d be near the back of the pack, but we decided to use this first race as a low bar. We’re going to be running another one in May. We’ve decided to integrate 5ks into our life every other month or so.
Sunday: Services went well. I was on drums. Guitar player’s amp died during last song so that was fun. All in all we executed nicely, except for some minor vocal harmonies that weren’t 100%, but I’m really proud of my vocalists. They’ve been working hard to get their parts each week.
How was your weekend?
Drums, man I miss playing drums.
I used to play drums/keys/guitar all kinda mediocre, but since I’ve dropped the keys/drums my guitar skills have improved significantly.
Maybe at some point I’ll get to play drums from worship again.
@billy: it’s fun. I actually play once a month, so it’s fun. We have a decent drummer who is getting better and better, but I like to rotate EVERY member of our team off one sunday per month so they can worship with family and just enjoy the day with no responsibilities.
man, take it back and get the iPhone! And cool on drums- u may recall I played drums @ GSU.
@fred: I wish I could get an iPhone. At this point we’re very satisfied with our current provider, and would rather stay with them. ugh. Ha.
I do recall you playing drums at GSU, even though you might have already graduated when I came through.
