I've been meaning to mention an experience I had in DC. At the conference, they mentioned that anyone who was interested could join a choir to sing at the banquet.
Along with a handful of other women, I showed up at the choir rehearsal, which took place right before the banquet. That's when I learned that we'd be singing three songs--two of which I had never heard of.
And from the music I heard, it sure didn't sound like the other women had, either.
Instead of dragging this story out, let me just mention three small things I learned from the experience:

- 45 minutes is not really long enough for a group of strangers to learn three new full-length songs together.
- It's not a good idea to perform a song in a concert when you didn't quite get to the second half of it in rehearsal.
- While "letting the Spirit lead" sounds very spiritual, let's just say you may be led places that the music's composer never imagined.

So I guess you'll have to wait in suspense one more day, if you can hold out that long.

overheard in front of a perfectly normal ice cream freezer at the grocery store:
Dad: Sarah, do you want Auburn ice cream or Alabama ice cream?
Toddler: Auburn!

Me: What are you excited about in GAs this year? (thinking playing games, learning about other countries, trying cool foods, etc.)
Girl 1: The aquarium!
Girl 2: Dancing!
As far as I know, we don't have any plans to go to the aquarium or dance during GAs, but maybe we should make some...
