I love this picture. It is full of good memories. Let me recount some of them.
The scene: Alison Williams’ living room.
It reminds me of the time when me and Katie helped Al paint this room. It was fun, meaningful and productive all at once!
It captures Lizzie in the moment of finding something hilarious (a common occurrence!) and reminds me of hours spent in hysterics with these guys.
The pile of Mark's gospels on the table remind me to pray for the students in the UK and the FREE project.
It reminds me of the story of Al’s shirt (the white one she is wearing in this picture) which cracked me up when she first told it and still cracks me up sometimes now:
Al walks into a shop, wearing the white shirt.
Indian Man: That’s a nice dress
Al (thinks): he must be talking to someone else, I’m not wearing a dress.
Al goes to the counter to buy whatever she is buying.
Indian Man: I like your dress
Al (thinks): It’s not a dress, it’s a shirt! Get lost you creepy person!*
Al (says): Thank you.
Al makes a swift exit.
Now whenever I see that shirt I think ‘I like your dress’!!
Unfortunately I never actually see the shirt what with being in
*(N.B. Al – sorry if I put words in your mouth/head there, I obviously don’t know what you were thinking re:the Indian Man’s comment, I just used my artistic licence!)
