Hooray for Man United!!!!!

something really great (and sort of monumental.....at least in the near past) happened yesterday...... Manchester United beat Arsenal yesterday 2-0. now, i'm sure a collective yawn from all of my American readers just accurred, but this really is pretty cool for two reasons: 1. Arsenal has been top dog in the Premiere League for nearly 2 years now and have trounsed everybody they've played in the last season and a half, to beat tham is cool, but to beat them without them scoring any goals is simply great and 2. by Man United beating Arsenal yesterday, it ends Arsenal's 49 game winning streak.....yeah, they've won (well, apart from the yesterday) the last 49 games they have played in the normal season; a lot of people were pissed because it stopped them just short of attaining 50 undefeated matches in a row....oh well.

things here are going really well, busy of course, but well. the guy i work directly with, Sam Hargreaves, is gone all this week on holiday, so its sort of me on my own this week. i assumed the responsibility of overseeing two of the worship services yesterday and making sure they ran smoothly (which they did, thank you Jesus) and i have to oversee how the music/video goes tonight at Alpha. so, it'll be a lot of responsibility, but the awesome thing is is that i get to cut my work week short by a day as i am taking off with some friends thursday morning to spend a long weekend in Wales. Alice, a friend of mine here, has a family cabin in the east part of Wales, so we'll be staying there for free. we'll get there thur. evening and come back saturday afternoon and just chill and do some hiking whilst we are there. this will be my first opportunity to get out of the city and see the countryside...i can't wait, it'll be freakin awesome. i'll be taking lots of pictures, so check my online photo gallery next week and there will be many award winning photos there for all of you to enjoy. love/miss you all.
