Tonight Zack, my dad and I went to go see Donald Miller speak on his Million Miles book tour. Gabby and her parents told us that he was coming through town, and I’m so, so glad that they did. The evening was fantastic and my head is swimming with so much information about writing and God and life that I’m not going to be able to sort it all out this evening. Click on that link to see if he’s coming to your town. If he’s coming anywhere close to you, you should go hear him speak.
So, in lieu of philosophical ramblings regarding my interpretations of Donald Miller’s fantastic presentation, I’m giving you a video clip. Because it’s NaBloPoMo and I have to post every day. And because I have the rest of the month to piece together a wordy post about narrative and conflict.
Community‘s been rocking my world this season. In last week’s episode, there was a fantastically clever exchange that I am still laughing about 3 days later. (I can’t find a clip of it anywhere, so you’ll just have to go watch the whole episode to see it.)
Chevy Chase’s character asks his band-mate the question, “Are you trying to Garfunkel me?”
