You know you are a United Methodist minister when...you get excited when you do your first "box run" of any move!!! I figured with three months to get ready, there is no reason why this move should not be the very most organized one I have ever made. I made my first box run tonight...during my box run phase is the only time I frequent local liquor stores...honest. The first visit is usually just to endear me to the liquor store manager/workers so that they will save the good boxes for me. I visited Berbiglia and Mike's Wine and Spirits (85th and Wornall). Mike's comes in with very high marks with me. Some decent boxes and two very nice guys, Steve and Julio? who gave me tips on when to come in and on what days. I even managed to tell them I was the minister down the street. I also visited a-to-remain-nameless grocery store, and boldly walked back into the produce store room, where I was a little disconcerted to see a "rodent station" warning. No boxes. Probably just as well.
I also am teaching yet another St Paul class tomorrow morning on emergent--I'm glad Mark Calhoun will be there to help as well. I feel like I'm getting sort of redundant, but I'm fairly excited about doing this. I share a two page synopsis I have, and a bibliography. I plan to have the class do some smaller group discussion, too. There will be 27 in the class.
