Vintage Faith: Chocolate Shake and Green Day

I was at an elders meeting tonight that lasted until after 11:00 PM. I then found the Vintage Faith Church office busy with Hannah, Kristin and Justin preparing all the signage, making flyer's and getting things ready for the Good Friday Stations of the cross art exhibit and Easter Sunday worship gatherings. They are a dedicated bunch. I ended up staying in the office with them until around 1 AM. They were still there when i left. I am looking forward to the Stations of the Cross art event tomorrow and I hope it causes people to think and ponder about what happened with Jesus on that day.

After I left the office I did a rare thing, and drove through a fast food place and got a chocolate shake. I had Green Day playing on the CD player in Becky's Mountaineer so the stereo sounded nice (in my Mustang the speakers are pretty shot). I pulled up into our driveway at home and sat there for about 10 minutes drinking the shake and listening to Green Day.

The longer I sat there, the more I realized that the combination of a chocolate shake and Green Day were really a pretty perfect one. They sort of felt very natural together. I had a few minutes a restful joy as I sat there at 1:15 AM, the moon shining through the sun roof and enjoyed the excellent mixture of Green Day and a chocolate shake.

I wonder if Gina Tassone likes chocolate shakes?
