    With Santa Ana winds bringing a warm weekend, we’re going to spend a lot of the day getting fresh air. As of right now we’re thinking tide pools and Pacific Beach… but that could change at any minute.

    Saturday is here. We were supposed to be doing the last day of our garage sale… but neither Kristen nor I felt it was worth it. So if you are looking for a couple of furniture items just drop by and ask, OK?

    With the moving truck coming on Monday and serious loading beginning on Tuesday, I think the best description we have for what’s going on here is “preparing.” There isn’t a ton left to do, but there is still stuff to get done. Oh, and we have a showing at lunch time. 

    So, while I’m doing the Saturday thing… music is always going. Here are my next 10 tunes. As always this is completely random with ratings included. 

    #1 Viva la Vida by Coldplay *****

    #2 Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Cindi Lauper ****

    #3 Hollywood by Collective Soul *****

    #4 Busted by Vetiver ****

    #5 Take Me by Vineyard Generation ****

    #6 Can I Stay Here Forever by Starfield ***

    #7 Sleep by Kimya Dawson *****

    #8 Plain White Rapper by KJ-52 ****

    #9 We All Want the Same Thing by Kevin Michael ****

    #10 You Were Meant for Me by Jewel

    Saturday TunesThis morning I’ll be teaching a class at Romeo Bible Institute on the Book of Acts. After that I’m coming home to start working on some template and structure changes at Youth Ministry Exchange. And at some point during the day Patti and her family are arriving from Albany, NY to hang out with us for their Spring Break. They were tired of their Gubanatorial sex scandal in their state so they thought they’d come to the Detroit area… where we know how to mix our mayoral sex scandals with bribery and dead strippers.

    As I am finalizing my preparation for classes, my iTunes is rockin’ these next 10 songs. As always these are random, no cheating, ratings included.
