After the Blogathon ended yesterday morning, I tossed on my sarong and some sandals, grabbed a quick breakfast (i.e. 1/2 a cup of cottage cheese and some CL lemonade), and walked to Big Church in Town for their 9:00 service. (I went there because I had no desire to attempt to be social and I figured the service would be different and interactive enough that I’d actually have to pay attention.)
The music was WOV Setting 4 (which we referred to as “Some Enchanted Liturgy” in seminary) so I kind of had to think straight to participate; but at the same time, I have it memorized so I was doing it by rote. The sermon was excellent and I would probably have appreciated it more if I hadn’t been squeezing my keys and stabbing my wrists with them to stay awake. Communion involved kneeling so that was also a plus. Afterwards, I staggered home, checked email (yes… I checked email even after being online for 24 hours — it’s an annoying habit of mine), tossed on a t-shirt and pj bottoms, tuned into the LCMS service on the radio (the sermon was starting), and let the sermon lull me to sleep.
Jon woke me up 2 hours later (resulting in me giving him a rather toxic look) to go get food. After a grilled chicken sandwich/fries/bottle of Sundrop from the local family foodery, I was more awake and spent the afternoon reading, doing deep tabby massage (Cullen insisted), and trying to figure out how to make a theme on WordPress so I could upgrade ::Meditatio::. (If anyone wants to make me one, I will love you forever and let you pet my kitties.) I also did go for a “healthy walk”, albeit a shorter than normal one due to it being bloody hot/humid and me being tired. My goal was to make it to the end of Grey’s Anatomy and I did. I think my body finally crashed around 11.
Today, I woke up at 8:30 and set the snooze button for another 15 minutes. 3 1/2 hours later… I woke up and decided that it would be a *good thing* to actually *GET UP* and start my day. I’m doing laundry, trying to figure out how to make my own themes, and petting cats. In a bit, I’ll do the “healthy walk” thing (3+ miles this time!) and I’ll start working on some “me-crocheting”.
Congrats Jen!
I was away over the weekend, but I just finished skimming through your blogathon posts. I enjoyed looking at the afghan over the hours as it was being put together.
thanks. 🙂 it was a fun project to put together.
how did your move go?
