bronze_ribbons* In spite of miscellaneous mistakes, the chamber choir sounded good at this morning's services. (Enough that someone exclaimed "Wow!" right as our opening anthem ended. It feels wonderful to connect to a listener to that degree.)
* Today was the first day of this year's Religious Education classes. The minister and RE director read a charge to the teachers (all volunteers) themed around Noah's ark that included the line, "Remember: the ark was built by amateurs, the Titanic by professionals."
* Went fly-fishing yesterday at Newsom's Mill with four guys from church. The weather was perfect for wading around in the Harpeth River -- which was good, because the fishing was best where the water was up to my bra. It's not going to become a new hobby (too much driving and gear involved), but damn, casting is cool.
