Question of the day

While I was eating lunch today I though of this question:  What will happen first Michigan will play a New Years Day Bowl Game or Michigan will reach the sweet 16?  Neither seems to be happening in the next few years.

Random thoughts from an idiot at 4 am

I am stuck at work and it is 4 am.  I am so bored and I am so tired.  I am barely awake.  I am only blogging to try to keep myself awake.  None of this will probably make sense but here goes some random thoughts in my head.

-Don't believe the lies that my wife writes in her blogs about me, I do not like the High School Musical movies.

-The one cool thing about working late at night is you sometimes get to do odd things to keep yourself awake.  Back in July when I was working midnights I was collecting bottle caps from all of the pop bottles lying around the plant.  With those bottle caps I was able to win a hooded sweatshirt from Mountain Dew.  I had no idea that I won until I received the package in the mail last week.  I was very excited.

-I found one bottle cap from Pepsi tonight and they have already started a new contest.  And guess what?  I already won.  This time a Detroit Lions hat.  I know it is not that great but it is strange things like this that makes me happy.

-I have found myself reading Ecclesiastes a lot the past week.  There are a lot of interesting verses in the book.  If you get a chance read the book, you can probably read the entire book in less than 15 minutes.

-I have been training to run the Red October 5K run again this year.  The thing that I don't understand is some days I run and I feel like I run hard with no problem for the whole 5k and other days I feel like I am running in a river against the current.

-Where did all of the good movies go?  I can't remember the last time a movie came out that I was dying to see. I am really desperate to see a good movie.

-Why do so many people shop at Meijers in the middle of the night.  I was just there a few hours ago and the place was packed.  It was just as crowded in the middle of the night as it is in the middle of the day.  And why is there so many kids in the Meijer past midnight.  I counted over 10 kids 5 years old and younger in the store.  The other weird thing is the stuff people are buying the middle of the night.  There was a kid who looked like he was 5 with an adult male that was buying rock em sock em robots in front of me in the line.  Were they planning on going home to play the game?  And behind me were teenage girls buying an Ouija board.  How creepy is that?

-I think it is safe to say that we all saw on Saturday was the death of Michigan Football.  How can a school ever recruit after the most embarrassing loss in college football history.  It may be several years before we see Michigan ranked in the top 10 again.

-But thanks Michigan for freeing up our Saturdays for us. 

-I can't believe I am going to be 32 this week, gosh am I old.  The really sad thing is I am now old enough where I don't keep track of how old I am.  The other day I was feeling old because I thought I was turning 33 and then I realized I am only 31 so I got excited because I wasn't as old as I thought I was.

-One more hour to go and I can go home and go to bed.  zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

10 years is a long time

The most important day of my life happened 10 years ago today. It was the day that started my relationship with Amy. The last 10 years have been hard because I have been busy training her. Today she cooks for me, makes my lunch for work, takes care of the kids 24 hours (with little sleep), cleans the house, takes care of finances, looks great for me, listens to me, and expects little in return from me. As you can see I have done a great job training her. I am just kidding. Just does all of those things for me because she loves me and loves the kids. In fact I tried very hard to train her to watch football and to play videogames but I have failed miserably with both. But despite those two flaws I love her tons and I know my life would of turned out miserable if our paths didn't cross paths 10 years ago. I enjoy my life very much and I never thought my life could of turned out this good. I all owe it all to her. God really showed me that He loved me that day because He gave me a wonderful present. Amy I love you and thank you for the past 10 years and I look forward to next several decades with you.

Today is Amy's birthday.  She is 28 years young today. 

It seems like yesterday I was 18 years old but suddenly I am 31.   It feels like the 18 year old me just woke up and found himself married to this awesome woman named Amy.  For some reason she loves me.  For some reason she smiles at me every day when I come home from work.  For some reason she makes my lunch and dinner every day.  For some reason she puts up with me.  This woman is not only my wife but she is also my best friend.  We go to movies together, play cards with each other, debate the Bible together, dance with our children together, day dream together and even rarely watch each other play video games together.  I know that this must be a dream because this woman has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, they just can't be real.  And if they are why would they every look at me.  But besides for her beauty, friendship, kindness and intelligence she also gave me 2 great gifts in daughters.  And there is a rumor that she may soon give me a son.  But today is the woman's birthday.  And this is where the dream becomes a nightmare because what do I give her for a birthday gift?  She wants nothing.  She is not materialistic so how can I ever give her anything that shows how much I love her and how much I appreciate her?  I can't.  I can only tell her that I love her and that I hope this dream never ends.

Happy birthday Amy.
