This morning, I roll out of bed, get a shower…or take a shower? Most of us say “take” but honestly you are “getting” a shower.
Anyway, make my mocha and blueberry bagel, glance at the clock - 7.32.
Then my stomach hits the floor. I stood up one of our elders this morning. We’ve been meeting on Wednesday mornings and I completely utterly forgot it.
Looks like I’m buying breakfast next week.
Sorry, Dave. It’s VBS and a I’m a youth pastor.

I’m just proud to have made a blog! ;o)
Plus, I got to spend some time with the Big Guy…no harm no foul.

Funny how the more things change, the more they stay the same. Dave, welcome to the club of being stood up — we have t-shirts and jackets down here in Little Rock. Everytime you get stood up by Grant you get to put more flare on your jacket.

Weren’t we just talking about how guys don’t stand you up early in the morning, David? I think we jinxed you!! Sorry!!!

I love flare…awesome! Is there a welcome packet?

The club is a small, elite club. Consisting of mainly guys who laugh loudly, tease often, and are loyal to a fault.
The welcome packet often includes a round of golf that is more about hitting houses and side bets than actually keeping score.
Talk to Wayne, Steve, and Harry for more details.

i love that someone has finally admitted to using ‘i’m a youth pastor’ as an excuse for ditzie-ness.

Kris - that’s because he can’t use blond - or anything to do with hair for that matter.
