For instance.....
- I'm super excited for Battlestar Galactica's season finale tonight. Really, really excited. Space ships, Cylons, Caprica, Gaius Baltar, the Adama's, dead Starbuck. However, I am sitting at my desk getting ready to play with paint and glue and paper while listening to Joshua Radin's Winter and wiping away the tears from the episode of Scrubs I just finished watching that used that song at a tear filled moment. And my favorite books are Anne of Green Gables. Don't those things seem totally opposite?
- I hate reality TV. I can't stand Survivor, no that's too nice. I despise it! But I can sit in an airport for hours upon hours and watch people. It's so fascinating to me. Aren't those things similar?
- I don't like playing games and am not competitive. Yet, for 5 summers I was the program coordinator for a camp and was in charge of games and coming up with them and leading them and doing the 3 times a day for 8 weeks. I LOVED that job. The only reason, other than God saying time was up, that I quit was that I was mentally tapped.
- When I was growing up, I hated babysitting. The kids drove me crazy. I did it cause I needed the money and I was good with kids (yes, I was). I've worked in ministry with kids for almost all of my life. I LOVE that part of ministry. I love working at a camp with kids. LOVE it. There is nothing else in life that I would rather do right now. Yet, I still try to avoid babysitting like the plague. Of course all that changes when those little ones belong to my best friends. Then I can't get enough of them! I want to spend too much time with them. Doesn't that seem wacko?
