Hmm...Penta water and curly hair

So, unfortunately I haven't blogged for a while..I've had so many stories, but alas, not the time to blog about it. What I found amusing yesterday was purchasing a bottle of Penta water at whole foods and being questioned about why I was buying this uber expensive water. I explained the filtration process and the health benefits and how it's prescribed to people with certain illnesses..I tried to just end it by saying it makes me feel better when I'm dehydrated..I even agreed to try the Whole Foods brand of water the next time, but no...the guy at the checkout counter insisted on giving me a bottle so I could try it.
Another thing I remember about this week was the copious amounts of comments my straight hair got on Sunday..Hugs from people with a confused and disappointed look on their face followed by "what happened to your curly hair?" were all too common. Finally, after being asked that for about the 15th time, I reacted with "I decided to have my hair straight today, okay!!" Surprised by my reaction, I had to over smile to try to get the person to believe I wasn't actually upset with them..sigh..anywho, going to bed now..I'm drinking the Whole Foods water, and
it tastes good, but it's nothing like my Penta.

CA Night

So, this week at Creative Arts night Michelle talked about forgiveness and Dan talked about the men of the CA and how we have to personally take responsibility for our relationship with Christ. And that even though our church may be fun, and present things in a way that appeal to the entertainment industry (um, we ARE in Hollywood), we love God, and no one should doubt for a moment that are hearts aren't in it and sincere.

Such good stuff...of course, there would be a sitcom moment - and that was during announcements. I was proudly wearing my Doctor Who shirt with David Tennant and Freema Agyeman (or The Doctor and Martha) on it and Dave Grieder grabs the mic and tells everyone I was on a panel at the conference over the weekend. All good, until he says "that's where she was on Valentine's day!!" And Michelle says "Dave! That's not right." Then his wife starts shaking her head and James Blake yells from the front row "why are you engaged yet?!" Ahh...and embarrasment ensued. Although, I wasn't actually that embarrassed, so I think I've just gotten used to the hilarity of my life.
