"For what we are about to see next, we must enter quietly into the realm of genius."
Earlier this week I heard a clip from 'Young Frankenstein' featured on a NPR news report, and for some reason I started laughing so hard at the clip that I almost had to pull over. Then this morning at work a particular violin concerto came over the speakers and it reminded me of the something I had heard before, and I realized I was thinking of the music featured throughout "Young Frankenstein". I started thinking about the movie again and just busted up laughing. I couldn't stop from laughing out loud at thoughts of Gene Wilder and the late, great Marty Feldman and all the hilarious moments from that movie. It was great, I went on for like 20 minutes with random moments from the film just popping into my head and I would start laughing again. As I'm typing, it's happening again! I left my copy at home, I have to pick it up next week when I go back.
Oh yeah, I'm going back home to Texas next week. But before that I have a busy weekend. I've been attending a pretty cool church here in Providence for a while, and tonight and tomorrow I'll be joining some friends and the pastors to discuss the starting up of small groups throughout the community. We'll be doing some training. etc. towards holding different leadership positions in the groups. They asked me to come along, and I really feel honored and excited. I'm really interested to find out what they have in mind...what God has in mind...and see where we're taken over the next few months.
I was just sitting outside reading for about an hour and it got cloudy and remained overcast, and finally my feet got cold so I went back inside. A few minutes later the clouds moved on and as the sun started to shine through and the sky once again grew light it began to pour down rain. It was awesome.
