Nothing really tying these together, just thought they were funny/interesting…

If you would like to wager on the K-Stop baby’s due date and weight, then go to the google calendar B-Stop set up, and enter the weight you predict in the date you predict. Also enter your name. So an entry might read 8 lb 2 oz Jaime. First come first serve on the dates; one person per date. Entering a weight and date is a promise that you’re betting five bucks on each of the two things. The closest weight gets half the money, the closest date gets the other half, all less 10% of the total which goes to baby’s piggy bank. Or maybe we could buy it a couple of Wheatfields stocks or something. Whatever mom and dad want.

If you need to be hooked up in the calendar or if you’d just like me to place your entry for you, just let me or Brett know.

Ready, set, GO!

Here is the calendar in all it Google glory. You’ll need to tab forward to August. Holly’s due date is August 9.

As I was taking a walk just now, I passed a house whose air smelled like fresh laundry. I love that smell. So it got me thinking about other smells that I love. Here’s my list-I’d love to read yours.

In no particular order…
1. Fresh laundry (dryer sheet smell) in the air
2. Sizzling fajitas as they come out of the kitchen ( I love this one so much, I never order fajitas because the smell alone is satisfying)
3. Cut grass (cliched, I know, but still sensational (pun intended))
4. Espresso brewing
5. I’m sure I have a fifth favorite, but will need to ponder

Holly turned me onto this video on Ted.com. Since Holly doesn’t post to the blog very often, I decided to post it for her :). It is about a neuroanatomist that had a stroke and had revelations about the brain and life. It is very moving and quite true if you ask me.

So the question is who are you deciding to be . . . right now?

but i’ve never heard of it saving anyone from a gang rape type situation.

Meditate on that.

I’m about to shit my pants this is so fucking awesome.

The first is about a car that is able to drive itself. Pretty amazing, although it requires a big ass car to cart all of the shit around…

Two things:

Trev, when it’s time, can you set up a bracket again?

Also, there was discussion of a pool betting on the K-Stop baby’s weight and also date of birth. Does anyone have the expertise to set this up?

Consider writing your own six-word memoir (see examples here).

1. What is your favorite word?
2. What is your least favorite word?
3. What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
4. What turns you off?
5. What is your favorite curse word?
6. What sound or noise do you love?
7. What sound or noise do you hate?
8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
9. What profession would you not like to do?
10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
