I think it is safe to say that I will be sitting on the back pew this Sunday morning.

Hypothetically speaking, let’s say you head to Cracker Barrel with a friend for breakfast.  While trying to decide between plain hashbrowns or hashbrown casserole, you look up to see the pastor of your church sitting down at the table next to you.  Over the next few minutes, you and your friend make polite conversation with him. 

At some point in the conversation, your friend points out that you and your pastor have the same Very Fancy Cell Phone.  After you both sheepishly admit that you still don’t know how to actually work the Very Fancy Cell Phone, you discover a mutual love for Bubble Breaker (aka The Best Cell Phone Game Ever). 

Your pastor says that he sometimes plays Bubble Breaker during boring meetings.  Without stopping to think through what you’re about to say, you blurt out that you also play Bubble Breaker during boring meetings, previous grad school classes and — for the big finale — church.

I believe it is safe to say that you will be experiencing what we call A Very Awkward Moment right there at the Barrel.

Not that I know this from experience or anything.

Not at all.

‘Cause I would never speak without thinking or anything like that.

Or, you know, play cell phone games during church.

Never.

Please say it isn’t so. My face is red and splotchy for you.
I would sit up front at church and keep focused, intent eye contact FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
Good luck with that.
