Lazy, hazy, crazy days
Significant things that happened today?We started singing Christmas carols at church. O Come Let Us Adore Him, I believe. I wasn't actually in the service at that point, because I was greeting, so I was late getting in.
Naomi had to cancel our plans for tomorrow--she has to deal with some insurance and landlord junk with her roommates because... a car drove into their living room. Yes. It only happens on TV, right? No, apparently it happens to people I know.
I woke up to snow. And, since my bedroom is on the back of the house, my first glimpse of snow for this winter was pristine. No footprints, no tire tracks... beautiful snow-covered branches and bushes. Then I walked out the front door and into New York snow. But the first glimpse was beautiful.
I met Kim. See, everyone at church has been telling me for several weeks that I need to meet Kim, who, apparently, is working in a theatre company (actually, she works in 3 theatres with 5 companies). We kept missing each other by minutes, and Ryan, Faith, and several other people kept telling both of us that we just needed to actually meet each other! Last night, the topic came up again, and so this morning, Rosa dragged Kim by the arm to come find me. And... it was fantastic, and we'll go for coffee, and she's someone that I really hope can be a sounding board and Christian theatre friend while I'm here. And beyond, of course. She actually told me that she's been praying for several months that God would bring her a friend in theatre who could empathize with what it's like to be a Christian and an artist.
And those, my friends, were the most interesting elements of my weekend. Besides the ice skating, Mexican food, homemade guacamole (yummmm), finishing a paper, having a working laptop, rehearsing for next weekend's film shoot, and dragging Elegie up from the dusty back rooms of my mind. Surprisingly, it's not too rusty. Not polished by any means, but not as rusty as it could be. Who woulda thunk?
