Busted! My afternoon at the movies
I’m busy all weekend, at a conference tomorrow and Saturday, and booked straight through with commitments until Tuesday night. I hate missing my days off, so I decided to play hooky this week and take a bit of time off here and there. Easier said than done. This afternoon I finally managed to get away and go to a movie. It’s been a long time since I saw a movie in the theatre, and it was just what I needed. I felt tons better afterward. I need to do that every once in a while. As I was leaving, I bumped into the husband of one of the church members. I could see the wheels turning: pastor, weekday, working hours, at the movies… Busted! One day I’m going to write a book on all the ways I’ve been caught, quite innocently, in potentially incriminating acts – including the time I accidentally stumbled into a gay bookstore that I thought was a Christian one. (Somehow “Glad Day Books” seemed like a Christian name.)
