A NIGHT FOR “INTERMISSION”
April 18, 2009
Dear Transmissioners,
Tonight was a very laidback Transmission. Present were a sparse but energized foursome, Katie Everett, Sarah Godbehere, Sarah’s friend Nicole, and I. We met at my place here in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, enjoyed some delightful Polish cuisine and relaxed. I think we were all a bit exhausted after last weekend’s retreat and needed something lighter.
So tonight after dinner, we enjoyed a strange little Irish comedy called “Intermission,” which was a mix of a romance and a bumbling gangster movie. It’s basically a story about people trying to find love or success, having illusions shattered, and trying to pick up the pieces afterwards. I recommend it.
And that’s about it for tonight. Some nights it’s best to just sit down with friends and curl up in front of a good movie.
Next Saturday will be our planning/debrief session at St. Michael’s Church: no leaders, just all of us meeting to discuss where we want to put our energies in the Transmissions to come.
Wish you all the best meanwhiles, and God bless.
