Yesterday was a very fun day. I thought the music sounded great, and I didn't even put that much effort into it. Things seemed to kind of mix themselves, which made my job easy. When Charlie got up to speak in the third service, something was wrong with his mic. It was sort of coming through, but not really, and I had to jack up the gain and the fader to get it loud enough. Even then it still sounded weird, and so I looked at a camera screen beside me and saw that the mic was laying on his shoulder...he hadn't put it on his ear! After that Joe and I debated whether he would ever notice, whether he would notice and just leave it, or whether he would notice and put it on. He talked for a few minutes, but eventually hit it when making a gesture and realized what was going on. All in all, it was a pretty funny situation.
That evening we were supposed to move some furniture for Kristi's grandma, but it started snowing. I was extremely skeptical that anything would stick, but it came down hard for so long that we got about 6" on our patio table! Kristi, Lucy, Oliver and I had a great time with the snow. You can check my Facebook page for more pics, but here's a few from yesterday:
Today I slept in the longest I had in a long time. The cable/internet was out, and I couldn't run because of all the snow, so I really had no motivation for getting up. Eventually I decided to get up and go make a snowman, which I always enjoy doing. The snow stuck really well and I decided to make a huge one. The base was big, and I made a slightly smaller middle part, but I realized that it was way too heavy for me to pick up and put on top of the base. I quickly had to restructure my plans. Instead I decided to make a snow Kristi and a snow Andrew, which turned out wonderfully. I thought about making a snow Oliver and a snow Lucy, but that would have been too hard:
We lounged around for the rest of the day and finished off by going to La Fogata for dinner and then visiting my parents to try out their hot tub. They got it for Christmas, but this was the first night we were able to try it out. It was fun, but it made me a little hot after the first ten minutes or so. I'd take one if you want to give me one though...just sayin'...and while you're at it, build me a deck.
In other news, I got a grill for my birthday, which is very exciting. My dad and I assembled it on Saturday, and I plan on posting some great pictures when I cook my first meal on it on Thursday. I've also got some great new additions to my drum set, but I will wait until everything is here to update you on that. Pretty exciting stuff. Hope you had a wonderful snow day, and now that Joe's blog is ending, you have no excuse not to read mine...
