just a short little post today to say that i won't be around for the next several days. we're headed out to cincinnati for the national youth workers convention. i get to hear don miller again, and david crowder is leading us in worship, so i am pretty excited about that. not only that, but i found a steelers bar in downtown cincinnati, so i can watch the game sunday against the browns. it should be a great weekend. we're dropping jack and max at the grandparents and staying at the hilton right next to the convention center. this is the closest thing we'll have to a vacation in a while, so we are going to enjoy it, and hopefully learn and find some inspiration as well. so anyway, i will talk to you when i get back.

things i like about cincinnati: kings island. over the rhine.

things i don't like about cincinnati: the bengals. the reds.

over the rhine is a good enough reason to visit anywhere. you asked me how i got hooked on them, and i think it was through Joel, but i know i heard them before i met him. i swear that every album is their best album. i was born to love, was born to laugh. unfortunately i have only seen them twice in concert, though i try to whenever we are in the states. the last time was at a standing room only bar and i was like 8 mo pregnant, so i sweet talked the bartender into giving me a chair. but it was still worth it to hear karen sing that line about the $20 bill for topless dancer. awesome

i didn't have goldstar, but i did have skyline chili. it was really really good. it was weird being so close to wilmore, yet feeling like wilmore was a world i could barely imagine anymore.

over the rhine is incredible. that's all that needs to be said. i drove the neighborhood 'over the rhine' in cincinnati this weekend, and found that it is basically a ghetto.

i am going to go see otr in philadelphia in a couple of weeks. i love seeing them in concert. when i reflect on otr i can honestly say that they have, over the years, truly inspired me to live a more full life, a more passionate life, and a more honest life. that their art has been able to do that for me speaks volumes, i think...

yeah, tell me more about the servant thing. i knew that linford and ric (hordinski) used to be in a christian outfit named servant, but i wasn't sure if it was the same servant you and i used to listen to when we were lame 13-year olds. i have tried researching this but haven't been able to find much info. even the extensive (and well-written) encyclopedia of Christian music doesn't give much background.
linford and karin no longer live in the otr neighborhood, as they bought a farm (i think in ky). they call it the nowhere farm.

if i were n. dynamite, i would say, "they are pretty much the awesomest band ever. freakin' sweet."
