Where's the beef?

Are you as confused as I am?

Remember her? Where's the beef?

I'm a GENIUS!

If this sign is true, I must be a flippin' GENIUS!

Sinbad!

Tami and I went to see Sinbad on Friday night. In case you don't know, Sinbad is a fairly famous comedian from the 80's and 90's. Today I would describe him as past his prime, but still hilarious. In the past we have enjoyed his TV specials and thought it would be fun to see him in person. He did a full two hour show (that's a lot for a stand up comedian). Parts of the show lagged a bit. Not because it wasn't funny, but because he decided to interject some political commentary into the show. It basically sucked the air out of the room, so it didn't take him too long to realize his opinions weren't going to fly here in middle America. Once he decided to get back to comedy, the show went much better.

The show was at the Lawrenceburg Event Center, so Tami and I decided to get a room at the hotel that is right there in the same building. It was nice to walk out of the show and just take the elevator to our room. It would have only been a 15 minute drive home, but something about a hotel room makes you feel like you're on vacation a thousand miles from home.

On Saturday morning as we were checking out of the hotel, guess who we saw in the parking lot? Yep, there he is... Sinbad.

Bowling

We took the whole family bowling today. We had an absolute BLAST!

You know...

You know you're getting old when you are teaching the children of your former students. This has been going for quite some time, and I am not far off from teaching the grandchildren of former students. That is just insane to think about. But how do you know when you're really getting old? When you start calling your current students by their mothers' names. I have two fourth graders this year whose mothers were in my class over 20 tears ago. I keep calling them by their mothers' names. Sheesh! It's embarrassing!

All Welcome

Soooooooo?????? Everybody's welcome?

Remember when?

Remember the days when going out on a weekend meant leaving the house well after dark and returning home in the wee hours of the morning? Ahhhh... good times! Those were the days when sleeping until noon was considered normal behavior. Nowadays we eat at 4:00, have our pj's on by 7:00, and are dozing in our easy chairs by 8. Times sure have changed!

Wine

Yep!
