I can’t fathom why I’m still up, but I owe you all a blog. I can’t very well write it if I’m asleep, now can I? Last month, I promised stories and pictures — so stories and pictures you shall have.
I spent the last weekend in March with Daniel and his cousin, Blake. There was XBox, DDR, and even some bowling. It turns out Daniel’s grandmother is a very good bowler. Sometimes I laugh when people get beat in bowling by their grandmothers.
I was long overdue for a trip to Nashville, so I took one a couple of weeks ago. Nick just closed on a new house, and as usual, he was very hospitable. I think my favorite part of his house is the projector he has connected to an old school NES. Ninja Turtles brought back so many memories.
Of course I also had fun hanging out with Melanie. (She made some valiant efforts to get Mario past level 1-1. It was highly entertaining.) Harkabus and I went to a Mexican restaurant where I stuffed myself beyond reason and then we saw Blades of Glory. I didn’t have high expectations going into it, but I nearly cried from laughing so hard.
Last weekend, I flew back up to N.C. to see Leslie and Sara, and to hang out with Beulah. It was only a weekend, but getting out of town does me good. There was some King of the Hill, some ping pong, some guitar playing, and some eating. It was good times. I found out that Beulah’s Dad is a talented guitar player. I saw Leslie and Sara’s rats that have moved in with them. Leslie actually preached on Sunday, and did a great job.
Other than my trips, I’ve been getting things done here. My taxes are finished. I’ve also updated my photo gallery. I invite you to check out the new look and keep an eye out for new albums. You may notice a few changes on the blog, too. Mostly the way information is displayed on this excellent Blix theme. I’m considering coding my own WordPress theme once I get the hang of PHP and the general WordPress structure. I’m open to any suggestions in that vein.
Until next time, eat your Wheaties.
