Well gosh. I haven’t been very faithful with recording every interesting event in my life on here, have I. Maybe that’s because my life hasn’t been very interesting. Ah, but what about poor Brianna? you may ask, in reference to the title of my post. Well that’s a different subject altogether, and I put that up there just to catch your eye. I did have a date with Bri, in the loosest sense of the word. And nobody knows better than me how the word “date” can have many meanings… but this was a date in the sense that we were in the same place at the same time due to our own free choice. Nah, it was better than that. It started off with music! And if you know me (which you don’t), you’ll know that I think music is pretty much the best thing in the world, specifically the creation of music. So Bri jumped on her keys and I got out my nylon string guitar and I taught her how to jam to some bossa nova. Her dad wandered in eventually, and since there was a drum set, he started giving us a little percussion. Other than the fact that Bri’s keyboard made us sound like smooth jazz radio (a style of music which often has no right to be called jazz at all), I had a great time and Bri picked up the jazz thing like a pro.
Then, off to Bible study. The real reason we were gonna go together is that we live in the same town, and the Bible study is an hour or so away. It’s with the church that Brianna and this one girl go to, but unfortunately that one girl couldn’t be there that evening. So it was just me and Bri heading down the hill. Bible study was good. A bit thought-provoking, as they should be. The guy who was teaching read from 1 Samuel I think, anyway, it was the part where Samuel was choosing a king for the people. The point he made from the passage was that since Israel wanted a king, instead of just being led by God, and God gave them a king, means that sometimes God willgive us what we ask for… even if it isn’t what’s best for us.
So… wow. Still don’t quite know what to make of that. Maybe more on that some other time.
Anyway, me and Bri and Jewels went to Boba afterwards. Bubbletea! Boba is some good stuff… I don’t think Jewels had ever had any before. Passion fruit ice cream shake with baby boba. Mmmmm…
Took Bri home, and as she was leaving and taking a good bit of my music sheets I had printed out with her, she gave me a hug! Yay. And that was my date with miss Brianna.
A funny thought just hit me: Ninja mice. I’ve seen them, no joke. There were three of them in this little box, but now there’s only one. Which means that there are two ninja mice at large in Ramona. Scary thought. I think I’ll google it…
