I’m Beginning to Suspect that I may just be an Idiot…

So, Frenzy. Possibly the biggest event on any Scottish Christian’s calendar. For years, I have heard about how great Frenzy is. For years, I have been unable to go, having scheduled a sailing holiday in early June for the past 6 years. This year, for a variety of reasons, I was unable to book the sailing holiday. This was great, in a way, as it meant I could now make Frenzy.

Excellent. Delirious? are really awesome live. Last time I saw them, I was amazed. Then I went home and cried, but that’s a whole other story. Chris Tomlin, I mean, wow, that guy’s music really, really gets me going, spiritually. David Crowder Band, I can only imagine how fun it is singing along to O Praise Him with the sort of crowd you’d get at an event like Frenzy. To say I was looking forward to it might be a minor understatement. I’m sure the other bands would be excellent too.

Then, the day after Frenzy, Kirsty McGee is back. That woman I fell in love with, back in February, apparently. Oh, the yearning I have to see this concert is incredibly strong.

Then, t’other day, Mr. Strong spoke to me on MSN. A bit of back story here, last June, Mr. Strong and I cycled 220 miles from Glasgow to Inverness to raise money for a mission trip he was taking to Bolivia. I mainly helped out because I really wanted to cycle from Glasgow to Inverness.

Anywho, t’other day, Mr. Strong informed me that the old rascal Ginger Dave was going on a mission this summer to Peru, and that he was looking to raise a wee bit of money for that. Mr. Strong had also kindly volunteered my services as a planner to Ginger Dave.

Thus, I found myself at Ginger Dave’s place of abode on Monday night, several maps in hand. And lo, we reached a plan. On some Friday night, we would travel to Inverness, on the following Saturday we would take a quick jaunt on some bicycles down the Great Glen Way to Fort William, approximately 65 miles, and then on the Sunday, we would climb Ben Nevis, Britain’s tallest mountain.

Oh dear.

Worse, the only dates suitable for this? The weekend of Frenzy and Ms. Mcgee. Why on earth did I agree?

    I’m beginning to suspect that I agree.
