(re)made

Sitting in Dallas thinking about the great city I just left. Many great things happened there and here are some things that helped the experience and that I will definitely miss:

I will miss @chapelhill and all my friends there.
I will miss how big twitter is there.
I will miss The Varsity.
I will miss all the great shopping.
I will miss southern hospitality.
I will miss all the big conferences that are there.
I will miss the bands that only go to the biggest of the big cities which usually include Atlanta and sometimes not Denver.

What is your favorite thing about Atlanta?

I haven’t talked to someone outside my small circle of friends at my church in a long time. I talk to the same people week in and week out and don’t think twice about it. Yep, this is not good. So, my challenge to myself is to meet new people at my church in the next couple of weeks. I’ll give myself the goal of meeting 3 new people in the next month. Hold me to it guys. So, do you know what I’m talking about? We need new relationships. They make us grow personally and get us outside of our church group box we have built for ourselves. When’s the last time you shook someone else’s hand, said howdy and really got to know them as a friend?

So, yesterday this happened because of traffic due to the Atlanta flood:

To pass the time I bought timelapse from the app store and did this:

(photos taken every 10 seconds) //the song is ‘Such Great Heights’ by The Postal Service.

Yep, that picture is Atlanta. Looks like it rained quite a bit there. Right now I’m sitting in Macon, GA thinking “man, I’m sure glad I got out of Atlanta.” Well, the rain just started pouring hard here. The lights have flickered twice and I’m hoping we don’t lose power. There would be no MNF and no computer when the battery juice ran out. The last time power went out, we lit some candles and played Apples to Apples. So, do you- read a book, write, play cards, talk, play guitar…What do you do when the power goes out?
