Friday Night Light

It’s been a nice, quiet Friday: the nice way to cap off a hectic beginning to the second half of the school year.  Because of some personnel shifts, I’m back to teaching five sections (which is a joy), which requires a bit of effort in rewiring my mind’s use of time.  I’ve also added a couple of more responsibilities to my list since I last taught five sections.  Spirit Week starts Monday, my eleventh round.

So tonight was for sushi, finishing a re-watch of the season one finale of The Newsroom, and nursing what will hopefully be a quick cold. (Famous last words, yes?)  The great hope for this weekend came in an email from a co-worker a few days ago informing me of a concert this weekend.  Turns out Andrew Peterson, who I often post about here, is on the island and doing a concert Saturday night.  That’s a bucket list thing for me (the last bucket list concert I made it to was Death Cab for Cutie a few years ago at the Republik).  I’ve been a fan of Peterson since he had “Nothing to Say,” which had a nice and necessary connection to Rich Mullins that I’ve always appreciated.

If you haven’t noticed, I’m trying to be a little more consistent here again. Content production is a tricky business, especially when you strive to communicate all day, too.  I think it’s worth it, though, if only for me.

Now for some Tylenol Cold and a few minutes with a good book.
