Inside Today’s Experiences

October 19, 2008 by Gilbert Leave a Comment

  • What an interesting day.
  • After yesterday’s marathon day working at the Applefest…which I’ll blog about tomorrow…I was whupped and brain dead.
  • Luckily Aaron came in early to set up for me, so I didn’t have to be there quite as early, but still I woke up with a pounding head and huge bags under my eyes…I wondered if I only had 30 minutes to live, much less 30 days.
  • Set-up only had a few minor problems, so I went to my office to try to relax before the 9:15 Experience started.
  • Right at 9:15 I arrived at the back doors to watch the beginning of the Experience, but they were already through half of the song and I needed to be on stage at the end of it…which meant running all the way around to be able to make it on stage just in time…whew!
  • In both Experiences, my mind was just not working and I was stumbling all over my thoughts and was doing goofy stuff I normally don’t do…like ryhming words and then being amused by it.
  • Now I remember why I don’t like to do anything too taxing on Saturdays…it throws me off for Sunday’s.
  • At the 10:45 Experience, Andy accidently hit the mute all button at the beginning of the music, which gave me a momentary heart attack and flashbacks to just 1 year ago when we were in the old buidling an would rountinely have power outages.
  • Glad it was human error  :)
  • Met a few people today who we first saw yesterday at Applefest, so this headache is worth it.
  • At the Guest Reception there was a little girl who kept reaching up to take a piece of pretzel, would take a bite then put it on the plate and reach up for another…mmmmm!
  • Went to lunch with Aaron and his family and now they are here at our house waiting for all of us to go to a party the worship team is haivng this evening.
  • Think I’ll try to get in a quick nap.
