Ok, first off. WHAT THE FREAK??? If I may direct your attention to the right ---->>>>>
Here you will see on my web site the quote of the day. This is something that was supposed to be fun; however, I now realize that the way you create a quote is by saying the first thing that comes to your head. For example
Yellow is yellow, like red is red. So when pertaining to the soul, we are who we are.
Loren Keely, 2009.
Epic I know, but I made that up in two seconds. If the quote had Winston Churchill next to it, we would all scratch our heads and say, "Man that's deep. Way over my head bro." I'm not saying all the quotes are bad. I'm just saying that most of them leave me with the impression that someone was spending a little too much time in the Chinese opium den if you know what I mean. Ok, enough of that.
I really want to talk a little bit about family photos. Melissa, David, Samuel and I, all got in the car and headed to Sears for some good old picture fun. You would think a six month old would smile very easily. The lady taking the pictures used a feather duster to make Sam smile. She slowly waved the thing at him and poked him with it. The first time she got a huge smile, we took a picture, the planets aligned and all was right with the universe. But when the flash went off on the camera. It was all down hill from there. Next time she tried to poke him with it, lets just say that she might as well have been Freddy Kruger trying to pick him up with blade hands. I could go on about how David was touching everything and how he pushed his brother over during poses, but I won't. (lol)
I wonder if women really know how scatter brained men are. I tried to be honest with my wife and I will share with you how it went. The other day we were driving around and I realized that she had been talking to me the whole time. I was thinking about cool things like, would I survive if I had to throw a grenade back at the enemy and it exploded above my head. But instead of acting like I was listening, I decided to come clean and say, "Melissa I'm sorry but, I didn't hear a word you said. Could you repeat that?" I knew I was in trouble when she said, "Which part?".....Oh crap. It gets better though because I turn to her and say. "You know what, I'm sorry. Sometimes my mind wanders and I would appreciate if when I do that, you could be understanding and just repeat what you said no questions asked. What do you say?" Honestly some of the dumbest words I have ever said in my life. We will leave it at that.
Wanna hear something cool. You ever had a key chain that's all weak and doesn't feel manly? Well I got some keys to the church the other day that came with a super manly key chain. I'm glad I can cross that one off of my bucket list.

Word to the wise: when your wife talks, look at her, listen intently and every once in a while (often) give a response of affirmation. It will go a LONG way!
