I have all this on my main desk! I have cabinets and a counter-top behind me that is full of STUFF (Some of which I am sure is important… but I know there is junk to throw out). Needless to say, perhaps, but I wrote all this to say that I will spend a good amount of time cleaning up and organizing.

I CAN’T LIVE LIKE THIS (which I am sure is a shocker to some of you). : )

1. Coke and Peanuts: I have officially lived in Nashville now for just over 2.5 years. I love it (especially because MI politics/economy is going down the toilet)! I think I like living down south, except that it’s really hot in the summer. Anyway… years ago Amy Myers (wife to Donald Myers, Associate Pastor at Kirby Church) introduced me to 2 “southern combinations”, one of which I have really come to enjoy. The first combination was RC Cola and Moon Pies. That one never really appealed to me. I tried, but I just didn’t get it. The second “southern combination” was Coke and Peanuts! Amy – you have revolutionized my life! I LOVE IT. I’ve felt weird doing it in Michigan, like everyone was looking at me, but down here it’s like a party! By the way… I love you guys and miss you very much!

2. Kobe Asian Restaurant: Those of you who follow me on Twitter know that I love Kobe Asian Restaurant (KAR) and you probably know the gist of this part of the blog. They have great food there. I try something different all the time. I’ve had an assortment of Sushi, Fried Rice, Paynang Curry, Larnd Nar, Pad See Eiw, and Yakisoba Noodles just to name a few. I thought the the Paynang Curry tasted like windex (my first and only bad experience at KAR). There are two servers that waite on me and one male server in particular always seems to get my table (unlike some fuddy duddies at church, I sit all over the place). Long story short… the server uses the word ”Honey” a lot. “More water, honey?” “Do you like the food, honey?” “I’ll be right back honey.” See you next time, you get the point. I find it to be kind of funny, but totally weird at the same time. The other server informed me yesterday that the staff at KAR know me as ”The Big Guy”. She took my order and it yelled to the other guy and as she did she made some kind of reference to me in whatever language she was speaking (said it with a smile). I asked her if she called me “fat”, she said “NO… we call you dee “Big Guy”. We both laughed! There are some great people at KAR.

3. McDonald’s: Every now and then I will stop at Micky D’s and pick up a few sausage biscuits for my team here at Randall House. I went this past Tuesday and pulled up to the drive-thru and order 10 sausage biscuits. They seem to panic when I do that, but it’s always ready in a short time. I got the total and pulled up to the first window to pay then on up to the second window to pick up the order (How the two window system expedites the speed of the line, I have no idea?!?). At the second stop the lady pushes open the window and hands me the bag then gives me a quick overview with her eyes with this look. It was a look that said, “wow, your big! I bet all of those are for you.” I graciously looked at her and said, “they’re not all for me!” She laughed and I pulled away.

4. All of you know that I am a married man, but I could not help staring at this woman today. On my way to work I pulled out on to the main road and started making my way to RH. I was in the left lane going 5-10 over, when all of a sudden this red mini-SUV pulls up next to me in the turn lane going about the same speed. She took the turn lane for about a mile. Keep in mind there is no one out there with me, if she was in a hurry, then she could have easily made some passes. She just kept going… and I was just confused. As we approach the light, she’s a little ahead of me, but then stops, so I had to see who was in charge of this vehicle. It was a lady, puffing on a big ole’ cigar. I busted out laughing. If she looked over me, she probably thought I was the idiot. I’ve seen women with cigarettes and have pretty much ignored it. It’s normal, you know, happens all the time. I don’t think I have every seen a woman puffin’ on a big fat stogy like this one. It was just so funny to me!

5. Last thing, I promise! Let me preface this by saying that I know Michigan really stinks this year. Better days are coming. Now that that’s out of the way, let me say this… USC’s loss last night just tells me that OHIO STATE REALLY STINKS! Can you say overrated? Oh How I hate Ohio State!

In my blog, Humor Me: Fast Food in Heaven, I suggested that you ought to look up the word: Humor. Did you? Well, in case you didn’t, here it is below.

1. A:  a normal functioning bodily semifluid or fluid (as the blood or lymph). B:  a secretion (as a hormone) that is an excitant of activity.

2. A:  a fluid or juice of an animal or plant; specifically: one of four fluids entering into the constitution of the body and determining by their relative proportions a person’s health and temperament. B:  characteristic or habitual disposition or bent. C:  an often temporary state of mind imposed especially by circumstances. D:  a sudden, unpredictable, or unreasoning inclination

3. A:  that quality which appeals to a sense of the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous. B:  the mental faculty of discovering, expressing, or appreciating the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous. C:  something that is or is designed to be comical or amusing

Wow… I’m tired. I was all about 3C, but the others threw me bit! I would have been ok had the list of definitions began with 3C and the others to follow. It would have been weird, but I would of let it go. 3C was last. I had no idea!

Enjoy your Thursday! Much Love!
