A Very Productive Sunday.

Around 2 I got a text from Jarrod. "Wanna come to resonate today? 5:00" I had mixed feelings about this message. First of all, I had only been awake for a little over an hour and I hadn't left my bed yet. A fairly typical Sunday for me. Second of all, I wasn't sure I wanted to drag myself out of my apartment to listen to a pastor I was unfamiliar with and be in a big room full of people I didn't know. Sometimes it's a struggle to get me to go to things with a room full of people I DO know. After a few minutes of contemplation on what would be the better choice for me to make I sent back "Yes please". After all I wasn't the one who had to drive and I didn't have to sit by myself so giving it a shot couldn't be that bad.

I neglected the book report that's due on Wednesday and wrote some of the book I'm working on. Of course I watched How I met Your Mother while writing. So 4:10 rolled around and I played another episode making it 4:30 before I decided to get ready for Jarrod picking me up at 4:45. Scramble on. I look in the mirror and notice my bangs are sticking straight up. Super. I jammed a headband over my bangs and ran out the door because Jarrod was there.

After stopping for coffee we arrived at the Schweitzer Event Center where Resonate was held for the very last time. I always feel like I'm walking into things at weird times. "Oh this is our last meeting here this is so emotional..." Yeah, I don't have any connection to this, like at all, so I'll just sit here an be awkward. As for the actual service, that was pretty par for the course. Sing a few songs, listen to the speaker, pray, sing a few more songs. Then comes the hardest part for someone who's akin to the socially awkward penguin... Socialization time. I knew Jarrod annnnnd that's it. I followed him like a puppy with him occasionally looking over his shoulder to make sure he hadn't lost me. Jarrod knows a lot of people.

I think I'm going to go to Resonate a few more times before I make a judgement call on how I feel about it. Stay tuned for more.

Ridiculously yours, Molly Marie
