I know...I know... It's been a few days since the last update. There's not been too much going on this week. Church has been status quo.

I helped the youth minister put together a video spoofing the MTV show "Made." I was the vocal coach for the youth ministry intern. I think it will be quite funny.

Next Wednesday, we'll be having an Ash Wednesday service at First Baptist Church, Griffin--a first for me. I'm excited about the possibilities. There are some rumblings that "it sounds too Episcopal" (should be Episcopalian). I simply don't agree. I hope there's a good response. They had one a few years ago, so it's not a completely new idea for them.

I'll be attending the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Georgia State Choir rehearsal this Saturday. (We need a shorter name!) I think it'll be a lot of fun.

I read through the user's manual for my insulin pump front to back. I think that may be the first time I've ever done that. I figured since it was a life or death kind of thing that it would be prudent to do so.

American Idol is still going strong. The guest judges have been a riot. Brady was the guest judge last night and she was actually pretty brutal. She was giving Simon a run for his money!

Well...I had a Sunday off from church this morning because of the weather. I decided I would i-worship with Peachtree Presbyterian in Atlanta via their streaming video. It was last week's service, but that's alright. It was great to be able to worship, even though I was by myself, and not be in charge of anything.

At lunch time, I met up with some folks from church at Buffalo's and enjoyed some food there. We went back to one couple's house and played games, had dinner and watched My Cousin Vinny, which was quite funny. That movie was actually filmed in Monticello, Alta, and Gainsville, Georgia. Monticello is about 30 minutes from Griffin.

Tomorrow, things return to normal at the church.

I was doing a little googling today about insulin pumps and specifically my Minimed Paradigm 515. I was concerned about the small size of the insulin reservoir, but I guess smaller is better. I assume that if I should get to the point where the larger reservoir is needed, I'll be able to upgrade. I am excited about the change in lifestyle that it will bring. I just wish I didn't have to wait 2 weeks from tomorrow to get going on it.
