on thursday night i was outted as a next church board member. yup it's true. it involved a lot of arm-twisting but i finally cried "uncle" and that was the end. i feel it was the high-five from matt that made it official. this is not sometimes i undertake with much enthusiasm. i find it scary and a lot of responsibility – not like everything is on my shoulders, it just makes me one of the bullseyes for blame. it's a three year term which blows my mind, i can't imagine the state of things in 2011. but, i should console myself, not a lot has changed in the last three years, and i don't suppose much will change in the next three years either. three years isn't a huge amount of time, and i always stay fundamentally the same. melinda tells me that being a board member makes me a woman. wow, ok. i guess that's alright, we can't ALL be little girls.
i was over at helen & terrences last night. i took a cab because the snow was so deep i got stuck pulling in my driveway. helen is obsessed with this one famous girl's live journal. we spent some time perusing it and found this. crazyness!
now that i've found the united kingdom i should get back to painting.
i have photographic evidence that we met in january 2006 at the grad club.
don't try too hard to think... don't think at all.

You'll make a great board member, Lesley. Try to keep things on track, though. I have heard that it is possible for board members of a church to be held personally liable in the case of a law suit. You could lose your amassed fortune!
Good Lord!! Is that the same stuff my Grandma uses to sanitize her toilet?
thanks bob. i appreciate your encouragement. plus, that talk we had was very helpful. that's for divulging your experience on me.
oh and rach... yes, i know. isn't it CRAZY!?!?
