The boss is out for now

Yeah, the bosses are at a meeting, so I thought I'd update my journal because I'm bored and I didn't bring any homework to do. Anyway, I had a pretty good weekend. Friday I had dinner with Writer and then we hung out at Barnes and Noble for a bit then we went to see the Narnia movie (my 5th time her 4th). It was fun. Then I went home and read. Then I got up Saturday and read, and I finished the last book of the Narnia series. It was nice to just kinda veg out and be a bum for a while. But once again, I'm going to pay for it this week. Praise team practice started out frustrating, and I still don't completely understand why. The first song we rehearsed really wasn't difficult musically, but we struggled with it for some reason. I dunno, but then we took a bit of a break and when we started back everything was fine. After practice, I ran to Meijer, ate dinner, then practice Knees to the Earth for like an hour and a half, then I went to bed.

Sunday, I got up and went to the Heritage service. I enjoyed it. It was nice to just sit back and enjoy it. During Sunday school, I ran to Tim Horton's to get some coffee and spent the rest of them time practicing Knees to the Earth. I ran through it with Elvis once to make sure I was playing the right thing and to make sure I would actually be heard. Well, by the time we got to the second song in the worship set, I couldn't hear myself at all with all of my volume controls maxed out and playing as hard as I could. So sure enough, when we got to Knees to the Earth, nobody could really hear me and all of that extra practice seemed like it went to waste. I've been getting pretty discouraged about that lately. I've been getting discouraged because I feel like I'm playing my heart out and nobody can even hear it so what's the point? I feel completely unnecessary which is a crappy feeling to have. I know...I'm playing to worship God and not please others which is why I keep doing it and why I do play my heart out when we're up there. Ok, enough venting. Back to the rest of my day...I spent the whole afternoon baking which I hope everyone enjoyed. Then I went to drop a couple cupcakes off for my boss, pick up a friend and headed to the Chili-Bowl which was awesome. Whoever had the idea of getting hotdogs from Skyine: you're a genius! I had some Chili on my hot dogs...don't know whose it was, but it was good and then I had some of the White Chicken Chili, don't know whose that was either but it was good.

Gotta go
