- The 2010 NFL season got underway and my universe once again regained balance and order. Our Sundays are now filled with watching dudes beat each other up after we hang out at Jesus' house for an hour in the morning. I am in two fantasy football leagues this year, one of which Sarah is also in. My team(s) are doing well. It feels nice to know that I could piece together a hodge-podge team of winners if I was ever called to be a real-life coach. I like to think that I'm sort of like the Gordon Bombay of fantasy football.
- Sarah and I went to see one of our favorite bands, like, everrrrrrrrrrrr at the beginning of September. We drove down to Worcester, MA (pronounced "Woostah") to see Bane play with a couple of other decent bands (Trapped Under Ice, Cruel Hand, Alpha and Omega). Bane is from Worcester and is one of the longest touring and hardest working hardcore bands out there, so it was totally rad to be able to see them play in their home venue. Much respect to those dudes. You should really give them a listen if you aren't a nerd and if you like good music. Trapped Under Ice was pretty intense, too.
- We went apple picking. But you already knew that.
- We made some decisions about next summer, next year, and other adult stuff. Some of that stuff is for future blog entries, though none of it is really surprising/new/"big." OR MAYBE IT IS. WINK.
- Sarah started volunteering again in the nursery at church. She hangs out with the kiddos during the one of the services once or twice a month. I am not currently planning on going back to working with the high school youth group at our church. We were recently discussing the service side of our faith and I said that I would be more comfortable or motivated at this point to do something with college-aged students who needed some sort of God-focused activity during the week. But for now I'm not really motivated to try to find what that might be or where the need is with that. I'm pretty good just doing the dad/husband/hall director thing and letting that be my focus. We started really going back to our weekly small-group meeting this last month, too, and that has been wonderful. That group feels more like church to me than church does most weeks.
So that's what's been happening.
Also, I should note that we haven't really been taking a lot of pictures and videos of Norah lately. I don't know what it is, but I feel like we just don't use the camera as much as we used to and that we don't upload the pictures from the camera to the computer when we do.snap a few shots here and there. We tend to take a lot of pictures on our phones, though, so I am in the process of setting up the blog so that I can text pictures from my phone and have them posted on here. Look for that to be happening soon. It's gonna blow your mind.
In other cell phone related news, we're considering dropping Verizon in a few months when our contract is up. They've been giving us a lot of hassles lately and our bills never seem to be correct when they come. We've been overcharged for things we don't use for the past three-four months, so they may be on the way out. Any suggestions if we do switch?
My beard is getting to the point where it's starting to be envied by men and women alike. Seriously. It's totally awesome.
I haven't had a really good patty melt in quite awhile and it sort of bums me out.
Okay. This is getting ridiculous.
Have a good one, dudes! Keep on truckin;.
Stay Gold,
MMK
