Observations on Life

Valentine's Inc.: Miss Cutie has purchased about 3 more Valentine's for Heart-throb. Heart-throb has only purchased one Valentine this week -- for Miss Cutie!! Look out, 4th Grade!

Okay, hypothetically speaking of course, say you are walking down your own hall in your house and basically fall off of your foot, spraining your ankle horribly. Which story would you go with:
  • I was trying to get my 5k time under 15:00 -- in the last 250 yards, there was a pothole.
  • There was a truck with no brakes careening toward a little girl and her puppy. I pushed them to safety but hurt my ankle in the process.
  • I was showing the kids the perfect trampoline dismount.
  • Chuck Norris challenged me to a kick-boxing competition.

Please vote!

Memo to gentleman in Lifeway this morning: She seemed really kind, but I don't think the cashier at a Christian book store is the best person to go to for relationship advice.

Spend 48 hours hobbling around town on crutches. It will restore your faith in human kindness.

Yesterday I had opportunity to use a movie quote that I think about a lot. From When Harry Met Sally, a movie I've seen a bajillion times. At the beginning of the movie, Harry has all sorts of philosophies about men and women and relationships -- none of them very positive. At one point, Sally turns to him and says, "Its amazing. You look like a normal person but actually you are the angel of death."

It's a quote for all occasions! And a half-dozen people that read this are going to think I'm referring to them. Cool, huh?
