random ramblings of a freak

This coming week should be full of good discussions on theology and community. MArsHall, Nadine, Jonathan, and I are headed out to Austin on Tuesday for a few days. We have quite a few people we're visiting, I just wish that they didn't all work during the day. Hopefully, though not in stone just yet, we'll get to stay at The Abbey, a live-in study-based community, disseminary, and neo-monastery of sorts.

MarsHall going with us will be really cool. We have a lot to talk about on the way up there. I'm helping him sign his first band up to his production company. We're meeting with them Monday night to discuss what roles they would like us to take, and what direction they want to go in. I'm more the recording studio end of things, but I hope between all the producers I know and am getting to know, as well as the resources I've acquired over the years will prove to be incredibly helpful for MarsHall on the production end. We'll get to spend the trip up to Austin talking about the details of that, and the future of the concerts we've been helping him put on. We're looking forward to getting the time alone with him too.

I'm sure Jonathan will love the week as well. He gets to meet a few more kids. He's quite social, and is always up for making new friends. I think he's going to love it in Austin. ...especially if we get to see the famous bats, though I know it's still a bit early in the year.

We're aiming for this Monday to be the launch of our recording studio's website. Nadine has done an amazing job with it. Though we don't have everything we want in it just yet, what she's come up with so far astounds me.

One more thought before I make myself get off this glowing box...
I've been reading a new book while up at Borders (finally bought it after a week or so).



I've read roughly half the book, and I feel like the guy is taking my thoughts and putting them to paper in a way I have yet to figure out how to do. It topically discusses the Jewish faith from a rather "unorthodox" Hasidic point of view, if there is such a thing. It's written in the form of a Rebbe (in Russia I believe) to his student who has recently moved to America. Rabbi Shapiro may well become one of my top authors to read, up there with Rabbi Lawrence Kushner and the like, should he have other books that speak so eloquently.
