it gets a rating of good to great

well the long weekend has come to an end
i went to the good friday combined service our church has with the nearby uniting
and salvos each year
this year we met at the uniting church's building which is a block away from our building
it was interesting
there was something that was kinda funny but also sad
a lady got up to do a reading from the bible and did so but read more than she "was supposed to" she felt so embaressed, not that anyone would have known any different, that she went "oops, here ends the Word of God"
the sad thing, that she seemed to feel embaressed for something that really doesn't matter, but more so that she must have felt an expectation of her to perform her reading perfectly, no room for mistakes
i mean really who cares if she had read one more verse or whatever, great! it is the Word of God keep on reading
the funny thing that she said "and here ends the Word of God", obviously that is not where it ends cause she stopped mid sentence
i found it a little ironic and had a quick giggle to my self in my head
not that she had not performed perfectly, just the little ironic happening

from then on my weekend was pretty much working and hitting the LAN party some of my friends from church were having
which made me think, hmmm... maybe we should like invite friends outside of this group who don't know God and like LAN gaming
which one of my mates did, good on ya dude!
it'd be cool if next time we all intentionally do this

on sunday night my parents who live in Adelaide were passing through on their way home from Sale and staying a night in Ballarat
so they took me out for dinner, and Tab too which was cool :)
i was pretty excited that they were coming and had been looking forward to it all week
at dinner or on the way there, i can't remember
i mentioned to my dad about if i could buy his car off him
it is a '96 Dihatsu Charade F2, a 200 build limited edition celebration of their winning of the Formula 2 (F2) Australian Rally Championship
it is green, with Charade F2 on the side in white, plastic 5-spoke alloys, abs, cd 4 speaker stereo, body kit - skirts, scoop, and spoiler, and importantly cup holders

hopefully he is willing to part with it by the end of the year
i love that car, and there is a bit of story behind dad getting it and it's sentimental value to us both

so my weekend, it gets a rating of good to great
