Weekend recap...

So, this weekend was pretty cool. Here are some highlights:

On Saturday we went to the garden show at South Coast Plaza. I know, I know, you're overwhelmed with the pure testosterone that this event brings out. Trust me, there's nothing quite like searching out the "perfect orchid" to make you feel like a man.

I wish I could say that I was dragged there kicking and screaming, but the sad truth is, I was the one who wanted to go. We brought both of the girls and had a good time. We made of with some sweet orchids (just typing that made me feel shame) and a banzai tree for my desk at work.

Sunday, I took Chloe for the morning. I love having the girls one on one every now and then. In the afternoon we went to a birthday party for Olivia and Jackson. Good times.

When I was talking to another dad that I found out that I can carry out an entire conversation without actually looking at the person I'm talking to. He and I were talking and watching our kids at the same time. And never made eye contact.

Now, I realize that too much eye contact makes me feel uncomfortable.

Weird.

Read or watch...

So lately I've been reading. A lot. The thing is, I've been reading books that although fun to read, don't really stretch me. They aren't literature or anything like that. I think of them sort of like mindless tv.

Sort of like tv that just let's you unwind and relax. So my question is would you rather read a book like that or watch tv?

I can't do both at the same time. What do you think?

Everyone's sick...

So Jeni, Maggie and Chloe are sick. They've got this nasty cough and basically feel terrible. (I went back and forth between terrible and horrible, I think I made the right choice.)

I haven't gotten it yet. I think it's because I take so many vitamins. I take an Emergen-C once or twice a day. I take a B complex and Juice Plus.

If you don't know what Juice Plus is, it is awesome. You take 4 pills and get like 12 servings of fruits and vegetables. Which for me is sweet. I like fruit but I don't like veggies. Especially green beens. They are of the devil.

In summary, I am impervious to sickness.

I have a 3rd Eye...

I do, and it's huge. It's really like a 3rd and 4th eye. Really.

Right in between my eyes I have this huge pimple, well two pimples. It's like one on top of the other. A bi-zit if you will. It hurts.

Maggie said I have a boo-boo which is sweet. I have to teach her that pointing out other's pain isn't polite.

It's the kind of pimple that makes you feel like everyone is looking right at it, not seeing you at all just focusing in on the growth.

Well, it's out there now, so if you see me feel free to point it out. Let's get it right out there, no more dancing around it.

31, losing my gray hair and I still have zits...yeah, that's fair.

Hey Dude...

So, someone keeps posting a comment about Celebrate Recovery here and I keep deleteing it. Why? Simple, you don't leave your name or contact info. If you don't like CR fine. If you'd like to have a discussion about it, great. But that's why you keep getting deleted, and that's why there aren't any more anonymous comments too.

Just wanted to clear that up.

Oh, and one more thing. I wont be dragged into an arguement here. That's not what this blog is about. I LOVE Celebrate Recovery, it has changed my life and the lives of countless people around me. That's as much as a response as I'll give anyone.

God Bless.
