As Technology Director for our church, Christmas Eve was quite busy. I logged over 8 hours of work that day, and a lot of it was quite stressful. It was not a good day for technology. All this comes on the heels of months spent on "Scrooge," and there are still some cleanup things to do with that production.

December 16 was a shock to the system for Virginia…breezy enough for the flags to fly fully horizontal, yet warm—in the 70s. Maybe that should have been a premonition that this would be no normal day.
I started the day without an alarm. That clearly is a treat.
