You Just Never Know Who You'll Run Into

Well, so I'm on a trip to Bangkok, which takes 3 flights to get there. My first is a flight from Houston to Los Angeles. So, I'm sitting in the airport, waiting for my flight to board, talking on the phone and you would never believe who walks right up and starts talking to the person sitting across from me? CHRIS TOMLIN! How cool is that? He and I both do double takes. I imagine he first thinks I'm some sort of stalker (but he walked up to me, right?). Eventually, I say, "Hi, I'm Lisa". He says, "Hi, Lisa" and walks away (politely) with his other friends.


I get on the plane and guess who sits right in front of me? Yup, person mentioned above. We talked a little. He says he's on his way to Sydney, Australia for the Hillsongs Conference (how cool is that?). He asks me where I'm going. I then had to show him my ipod, which has every CD he's ever released (including his first, which he calls, "blackmail material"). I got the chance to tell him that his songs are powerful to me.

I had to get a photo as the opportunity presented itself. He was kind enough to ablidge. Holly, my colleague I'm traveling with, said as he departed, "He's cool". Yeah, he's cool.

All for now,
Lisa
