Tuesday, April 06, 2004 Des pensées variées Apparently no one likes to be told how to blog. Tait's Guide to Blogging Etiquette has sparked a flurry of discussion, primarily from bloggers who feel that the guidelines are too exacting. If only I could get that many comments on a post--at last count, he was in the 13 range. I now have the fully mastered copy of the long-promised CD. We're waiting on artwork and deciding on a duplication company. It's so close I can touch it.... I'll be playing a concert on Saturday; details will be on the Gigs section within the next day (i.e. whenever I get them, which had better be soon). Come out and enjoy the music--Anna Draper is going to contribute her formidable violin skills, so you won't want to miss it. Anyone want to get me to France for six weeks starting in May? Gaston's sidekick in Disney's Beauty and the Beast is named Le Fou. Translated: The Fool, which could be taken in a Shakespearean sense, as something of a jester, or literally as someone who is foolish. For the film, both work. And the Beast/Prince has bad hair. As Amanda quipped, "It's Beauty and the Mullet!" On a more serious note: Lately it seems like everyone's been struggling with direction, uncertainty, and decisions that have to be made (mostly for the summer and following academic year). For example, at various points during the last month neither Tait, my roommate Christine, nor I could have told you which country we'd be in at the same point the next year. Country. Not city, not state. How insane is that? And I've heard of everything from summer jobs falling through to whole-hearted switches in academic plans. Hopefully we'll see things solidifing in the next couple of weeks and the return of sanity. It's so much easier, at least for me, to pick a plan and run with it full-force. But I am still confident of this: I will see God's goodness in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord, your Creator and Savior; be strong and take heart and wait, even when it seems like everything is falling apart. Wait for the Father who will never fail you, who will never stop loving you. For though he refuses to condense himself into our time tables, he does not forget us. For he is faithful. --A Dawn paraphrase of the end of Psalm 27 ^ Top | 12:01 AM | | |
