Twenty-five years ago today...
Jan. 28th, 2011 10:56 pmActually, I told the story of that day in 1986 in this entry from 2006. If you didn't know me back then, please feel free to check it out and learn why I had considered Challenger my favorite space shuttle up to that day.
Last night I didn't sleep all that well at the church. Partly that was because my sleepover buddy in the church kitchen, a 70-year-old guy with various health issues, woke up every time I started to snore and he yelled at me, "Pat, wake up!" Then I woke up and would toss and turn while he slept for a bit. In addition, I never sleep very well the first night I'm in a strange place. Lastly, I could have used a bit more padding between me and the cot (other than the sleeping bag). If I do get a cot for SCA camping, I'll need to get either a thin self-inflating air mattress or an egg-crate foam pad.
This evening, and tomorrow during the day, we're having our mid-year Board of Trustees retreat. Tonight was the social potluck dinner, and tomorrow we will have the more structured discussions. Between this and Warm (K)Nights, it's certainly been a church-oriented week. I'm tired and I'm going to hit the hay soon.
