I took my wife Emily on a date the other night. We went to the movies, a place we both find rather refreshing. One of the great things about my wife is that she doesn't require a sappy chick flick to meet her movie expectations. Oh no. She will be just as satisfied watching the newest beat 'em up shoot 'em up action flick. (She's a rare breed). Unfortunately for me, their was no such action flick available for our date to the movies this particular evening. Our choice was between "The Time Travelers Wife", a movie about a dude who time travels and...... well you get the picture. AND "Julie and Julia", a movie about a current day 20 somethings woman cooking and blogging her way through Julia Child's cookbook. The votes were cast and it was unanimously Julie and Julia.
As I sat in the theater watching this movie about a girl who not only cooks ALL the recipes in her cookbook but also blogs about each experience, I was startled by the fact that in the hustle and bustle of summer, I had totally forgot to write in my OWN blog. Part of me thinks it is because I am cursed with forgetfulness, but another part of me doubted whether anyone really read this silly online poetic nonsense. So, if you are out there, here is a quick summary of my summer.
May - June-
School year ended, Spent a week in Mexico with my Youth Group, Found out we are having a baby! (Not the youth group, but me and my wife)
July-
Spent 2 weeks at camp, became the Science Supernova, and found out that we are having a baby boy!
August-
Had a late night BBQ with teens, Went to Seattle twice, and just got back from the Beach... burnt like an overcooked piece of toast.
But don't worry. I am back. I have awoken from my slumber, risen from ashes, regained my writing wand and am ready to attack with viscous force! (Sorry, I got a little carried away)
