Johnny Walker, Black, on the rocks

Tonight I tried a new place that I've never been to before. Dan was kind enough to invite me, in light of Ashleigh's celebratory birthday weekend. I had a bison burger with bleu cheese, bbq sauce, onion straws, spinach, like ten potatoes cut into fries, a martini and scotch. Then there was a super delicious pumpkin something or other dish, and Dan got a butternut squash soup which tasted really great. I felt like it was a long overdue, well deserved schmorgesborg of gourmet delights after many months of hard work, paying off debt, and a encouraging/stressful week.

Sunday: wrote 3 new songs with Dan, Paul's birthday party, accountability group
Monday: met with a brother, work, hip hop practice
Tuesday: work, post-work learning course, met with a brother, went to Ikea for some more shelves
Wednesday: work, post-work learning course, small group, met with a brother after
Thursday: work, helped a sister load up and move, talked with a brother for a while
Friday: work, hung with Josh/went to Provo, went downtown with Zach, Megan, their Parents and Scrib.
Saturday (today): helped a brother load up and move, met up with Michael to buy a new keyboard for the church.


such a great life I have. I feel like I'm burning on all cylinders going 100MPH, but it's so satisfying. And I listened to the National on the way to church tonight, which is perfect for a drive in the rain, and that was a wonderful moment..."cover me in rag and bone, sympathy..." or "didn't wanna be your ghost, didn't wanna be anyone's ghost..."

I also talked with Caleb and Kels for a bit, which is always great! I told them I want to cover Alive my Soul and Acts 29, so that should be a fascinating venture, but music is losing it's dormancy in my heart and things are blooming symphony of blood and headphones. it's only natural.

I like your use of the word schmorgesborg.

And also your heart for people...it inspires me to see weeks spent pouring your life into people. What a great reminder! Thanks Hayden!
