My in-laws are putting on a Christmas show in the theatre they run as a part of their ministry. The theatre is in the booming metropolis of Lyman, South Carolina, which is just outside Spartanburg. Unfortunately there was a huge ice storm and massive power outages and the theatre is without power. My in-laws are resourceful people and knew that rehearsal needed to happen so they cleared out some furniture from the home-office and invited the cast over and rehearsal was had.
When I got home from work this evening I called them to see how they were doing and found out rehearsal was in the office. We got on iChat and hooked up the video cameras and for about an hour, Chris and I watched rehearsal. It was really cool. We got to see all of our friends and family and got to listen to some Christmas music and see some Christmas dancing.
In other news, I suck at updating my blog; please still love me and continue being my friend. I have had a few friends get engaged over the past few weeks: Justin Nelson and Bailey Edwards; Brent Lineberry and Megan Robinson. Kat, my bridesmaid and former roommate, is going to be living with Chris's grandparents, despite my numerous attempts to get her to move here and work with me at Horizon. Speaking of Horizon . . . things are a little crazy at work. I'm tired and wish that I had comp time or vacation time and could stay home and relax (and sleep) for a few days, but that's life I suppose. Working 40 hours a week has really made me appreciate college and the almost daily naps and the ability to skip class on a whim and the fun people and learning (I miss my psychology classes, I'm such a nerd).
Dawn is home from France; I haven't talked to her yet, but she's home. I talked with Kimberly Freeman a few days ago, and I love and miss her so very much. Lauren Harris is fabulous and it's been good to see her so much this term. And while I'm mentioning wonderful and fabulous people, I want to mention my husband: I've had a crazy week and he has been patient and loving and caring and just amazing. He is truly one of the greatest blessings in my life. I love him with all of my heart.
Also, I love stuffed animals. Two of my favorites are Danny and William the Super Monkey. Danny is the bear I gave Chris about this time 2 years ago. William is the monkey Chris gave me for our one year anniversary; he has a cape, that's why he's a super monkey. I also love the fleece blanket that Kat made for me during our sophomore year; without it I'd probably freeze to death.
Well, I had best head to bed because I do have to work tomorrow. Have a good night and a safe tomorrow.

I thought you were going to say Kat was getting married, too! I thought, "Surely I would know THAT!" Anyway, I just wanted you to know that having you guys on the webcam helped make rehearsal bearable. It was fun on our end, too...maybe we just all need an audience :) I hope you all are doing well.
I've been so thankful for getting to spend more time with you this term than i ever imagined possible. i love you and miss you and i hope you have a wonderful Christmas. i dreamed i was riding in a car last night and thought you were driving, but then i realized that the stuffed animal you were holding was a colorful bear and not william the super monkey, so i knew it wasn't you. sad, love ya <><
