| | What a crazy week.
- Northern Room is breaking up. Really out of the blue, all the fans are shocked. Obviously, I am distraught. I totally respect the band's privacy & decision, but I'm hoping at least a few questions are answered over the next few weeks in the interest of closure. Next month's show at Turner Hall in Milwaukee will be their last. NR's absence will leave a gaping hole in the local music scene for sure.
- My boss's brother-in-law unexpectedly passed away over the weekend. He was only 62. The family is understandably rattled by this. Life is just so short...we never really know how much time we have left.
- All these sudden losses have made me rather introspective. I've been deeply thinking (perhaps overthinking) about many things in my life. Particularly, the direction of one of my friendships. I've been exhorted by several people to step out in a way that I honestly never thought was any of my business until now...but perhaps life is just too fragile to let opportunities pass me by. I'm not really sure what the right thing to do is here. I've been asking the Father for wisdom and guidance and that, above all, He would be glorified.
- I'm awake after midnight because I zonked out on the couch some time between 7 and 8. This is getting to be a bad habit.
It's not all bad...
- I had a wonderful weekend in Upper Michigan and Northern Wisconsin with 4 friends from church. Their fellowship and humor is a massive blessing in my life, and the beauty of nature always brings me closer to my Creator.
- I will be playing guitar (and I think singing) at all 3 services at my church this weekend. This is a big step for me, because I'm used to playing for one service of maybe 200 people tops at my old church. Playing in front of hundreds of people over the course of an entire weekend is definitely intimidating, but I know that the Lord is with me and wants me to do this.
- Christina will be coming this weekend to stay with me for a few weeks. I'm really looking forward to having her around again.
- I've been listening to the Briscoes' sermons from Telling The Truth almost every morning, and I feel that I've been growing tremendously because of it. I appreciate their straightforward, Biblically sound teaching.
- I'm completely addicted to Pandora Radio. I hope it doesn't die.
