Some days just sort of start and end without me hardly even noticing, and sadly today is one such day. I did get a lot accomplished, but to be honest, I am not too sure when or how. I suppose I shouldn’t worry about it, for as far as days go, things could have gone far worse.

Happy Birthday Cassie!
Today has been a great day! Today has been Cassie’s birthday, and we celebrated with a dinner tonight at Magginano’s Little Italy. It was a great time with an evening ending (at least for me) bit of ice cream cake and the giving of a few gifts.
Heat wave……..
Although I want to complain about the heat (really the excessive humidity) I will not because I remember the 6 inches of ice on my driveway not too many month ago. My industrial strength moose-sized snow blower could not even make a dent in it, and to be honest it seems a lot more appropriate to be sweaty out on the driveway now than it did then.
Almost disaster…….
Okay, I know there is a heat advisory out for this area, but it did not stop Viper and I from taking a walk together tonight. My intention was to go about 4 miles, but the heat was getting to the boy and I thought it best to cut things short. I figured I might not be too popular if I killed the family dog.
On blogs, theology, headlocks, and blessings……
I read all sorts of things, and at times when I think about this blog I wish that I was writing some sort of deep theological tome or insightful observation from life that would be a bit more blog-worthy in the sea of such insightfulness that we now know as the “blogusphere.”
Excuse me??????????
I got home and Ben was all about talking to me……he is still hanging in my office asking a thousand questions. When you are 4 you miss things when they are out of your sight, and I have been gone for over 2 full days. He is no playing spaceships, but has played just about everything and asked me everything since I got home.
On meeting Elvis…….at Breyerfest 2011…..
I have been in Lexington today and will be most of tomorrow as well, and it has been a pretty productive time. I am staying in a hotel on the north side of town with approximately 10,000 little girls and their moms, along with about 1,000,000,000 plastic horses. Apparently I booked a room during the annual Breyerfest celebration in Lexington…..I just looked it up www.breyerhorses.com/blog/2011/01/28/breyerfest–2011/
On the border……
I am on my way to a meeting in Lexington tomorrow and I thought in the interest of getting some rest that I would head to a hotel in Louisville tonight. And for those who do not know, Louisville is right across the border from the great state of Indiana.
What???????
I went to a work event with my wife last night that included a Josh Groban concert at Conseco Fieldhouse. And to show you how very connected I am with the current happenings of the day, from the moment I knew we were going to the point I heard him sing, I thought he was a country singer…….so much for being with it.
Lucky to be alive……..
I went to take Amanda to work early this morning, leaving 3 teenagers and Ben alone and asleep in the house. Steph was up getting ready for work, but Scott (Ben’s roommate) and Cassie were asleep as well. I wondered what would happen if Ben got up while I was gone, but figured he would probably sleep well past when I got back. Of course I couldn’t have been more wrong.
