ENTRY 18: Clean Up
Had a long day at church; today was the first (and only) practice for the Christmas Pageant, which is to be performed tomorrow. Imagine trying to coral dozens of children (none of which are over the age of 10) to try and behave and act in an organized manner. Can somebody say HEADACHE? One of the co-directors walked out at the end of the practice (I'm guessing there were some creative differences) so now the other director, who also had to deal with two cranky children who had been up since 6 a.m. as well as asthma problems, is all by her lonesome on this. I feel really bad for her, I'll tell you that much.

Thing is that there is supposed to be this huge snowstorm today/tonight, so it might be canceled. I think she's secretly hoping that this'll be the case...!

For me, today is "House Day" (I love how I arbitrarily christen days) so I'll be spending the rest of the day cleaning up the house and doing the duties I have been neglecting for the past two days or so. That means cleaning the kitchen and washing the dishes (there aren't many), cleaning the bathroom, vacuuming and mopping the hardwood floors, washing my clothes, and lastly tidying up my room. That should take me a good two hours, I think.

-----------------------------------------------

Let's see if I can divulge a little more about last night's wonderful "Life Day". I went to my usual Friday night haunt, Smokey Joe's, where I've entered into a circle of friends. They are all a bunch of women, except for one other Black guy. They such a blast to hang out and dance with, and really it makes the evening a heckuva lot more enjoyable.

It seemed everyone was on the sauce a little bit more than usual. I know I was; I usually stop after two beers, just because I like to stay well under my limit. Last night I downed five beers in quick succession, and for the rest of the night nothing at all was really 100% in focus. Another young woman who is a part of this Circle, usually looks really serious and unapproachable, had two drinks and was completely hammered. She was gliding all over the floor like some angelic disco chick. It was good to see her outside her comfort zone and still be so comfortable. Good for you, Disco Angel!

Anyway, it was a great night. I was just disappointed it ended so early; I went to bed at 4:14 a.m.

The famous words of Jesus Christ resonate with my person: words impressing me with total, victorious finality. Words that I hope to say down the road.
