Strange Weather

This must be the season for strange weather. Ninety degrees at home in Oregon and rain here in the desert. I stepped out of my CHU Sunday morning around around 8:00 and it was really muggy, I later found out it had rained around 5:30 that morning for a few minutes. I checked the weather in Baghdad and there was a chance of showers with about 55% humidity. I realize these past two blogposts are short but I guess its better than nothing.

Playing Drums In The Dark

I just came back from the chapel to practice the drums to play tomorrow for church. All the lights were off and nobody was there. I decided that since I had a mp3 player with me and I went over to practice I might as well practice. I groped along along the wall to find my way then found the drum stool. Luckily most drummers set up there drums similarly so I found some sticks and just started playing. It was pitch black, I missed a few tom-toms and the cymbal a few times but it was fun and I'm glad I was able to still play.
