Very few people will get the same kick out of this as I do. But I just had to post it. If you don't get why it's funny, don't worry - I'm sure you're not alone.

In case you're wondering, I made this image myself via

Time Flies and Sympathy's Nice

Wow.

I can't believe how quickly this summer has been flying by. There have been so many great things that have happened and that I've wanted to write about here. The problem is that I've been so busy doing it all that I haven't had the chance to write about it.

So, here's a quick and cute little story that I hope will make up for the long quiet period. Poor Katie has been sick this week. The doctor confirmed it was just a cold, so she had to just work her way through it.

This morning she looked much better and Vicki pointed it out. "You look like you feel better!" You could see that little brain processing what this meant, and consider the possibility that the sympathy factor may be about to be turned down a notch or two. The smile disappeared from her face and she replied, "I feel really sick."

Enjoy the weather! Don't swim in my pool.

Ahh, Spring, and the sounds of Geese...

Last Friday, we got a fairly decent snowfall. Therefore, Saturday morning I found myself out shoveling the driveway. While I was plugging away, hoping to myself that it would be the last time this winter, I heard some geese flying overhead.

I looked up, and to my great surprise, saw a huge flock flying in V formation... heading South. Shouldn't they be headed North? Then remembered why I was outside and sort of chuckled to myself.

Then I swear I heard a female sounding goose saying, "I don't care Frank! Next year I'm going to decide when it's time to head North. I don't care if you're worried that the tributaries may have frozen and what damage may be waiting for you at the waterhole! Every year it's the same thing, We Need to Head North, We Need to Head North! I tell you, next year we're waiting until I hear from my second cousin Robin that Spring is really here!"

Matt's Right...

After spending two days mainly just watching Katie and doing housework, I've decided that Matt's right.

Life *is* just a more efficient means of spreading chaos.

Man, how can such a little girl mess up a room so quickly?

Leeroy Jenkins

What: The famous (among geeks) Leeroy Jenkins video Summary: Leeroy Jenkins ignores his parties detailed battle plans, choosing instead to use the "Damn the torpedos! Full speed ahead!" approach. His flabberghasted party has no choice but to follow, finding themselves in a horrible situation. Why I'm Posting it: George W. Bush is Leeroy Jenkins.
