Pre-Crave Party at Karma
About 30 or so people showed up for a pre-party at Karma. It was weird having a church party in a bar. The lights were super low, black walls, red lights. I couldn't tell who anyone was. A band played, they were good but people were more interested in talking so the band was distracting. I got a beer, talked to some people I knew. Met a few more. And then they broke out the Rock Band game...I was hooked and proceded to play to whole entire rest of the night. This is new territory for me and meeting new people with no introduction and little context intimidates the hell out of me. But I think that we can create an awesome community of 20's/30's something people in Austin who are interested in figuring out the Jesus thing and just looking for something more meaningful. As uncomfortable as I feel in new situations, the curiosity and the love of people will no doubt bring me back. ¶ 4/17/2008
