…zoned out
last night, i was directing services from the light booth at church. it was the second service, during the message where there really isn’t a lot going on from a production stand point. i was browsing some websites and blogs… my hand was holding my head up as i read, read and read…
at one point, i got so into my own little world, that i thought to myself “you know, i think i’m going to take a little nap.” it’s as if i forgot completely where i was… because this seemed like a perfectly normal thought to me. it made all the sense in the world.
so i slowly lowered my head, and in doing so my head tilted to the side where i saw the light board, and suddenly realized that i was at work, and that maybe taking a nap wasn’t the greatest idea.
have you ever completely zoned out before?
dang. i do that when im driving. no lie! i’ll be scooting along and start drifting off in my thoughts, but somehow still attentive to the road and my mad driving skills, yet…i will completely forget where im going and why. and when i finally remember where im going, ill forget how to get there.
shoot. now im worried!
