mapsedge: Me at Stone Bridge Coffee House (gravedigger)

How I spent my evening...

My plans for Sunday morning's presentation include a full makeup: beard, nose, olive skin. I'm making a strong effort not to look like a Nebraskan in a borrowed robe, you know?

A trip to ATC yesterday got me the beard (pricier than I expected), base, powder, etc.

The Mercers came over last night and helped me with the next step: the nose. Because of the shape of my nose I have trouble fitting factory made appliances, and prefer to make my own. Last night, we did the life casting.

You know I love ya, man. But you are playing a ... shepherd? wise man? ... in a little church vignette.

Ah, well. Far be it from me to squelch creativity.... You just make me shake my head....

With the most innocent look I can manage, I shall now ask, "What?"

A shepherd, just to clarify.

And just for fun I'm going to hide a little cd player in the robes with earbuds, and while I'm doing my presentation I'll be listening to either Sammy Hagar's "Heavy Metal" or Meredith Brooks' "I'm a Bitch".

(I wish, oh I wish LJ would let you edit comments. In reading this after I posted it the first time I realized it sounded like I was inferring YOU were a bitch, which of course is not in my estimation at all true.)

From the newsletter sent out in email from the senior pastor:

Both morning services will feature a dramatic presentation by William Morris called: From the Hilltop/A Shepherd's Perspective.

There's nothing quite so frightening as a Nebraskan in a borrowed robe. I'm told that in the Great Plains they band together and mauraud through villages plundering coffee and muffins from each unsuspecting inhabitant, apologizing for the inconvenience before moving on to their next victim.

*shudder*
