Stumbling

I've been using stumble upon lately, and this made me laugh out loud.

Ninja Parade Slips Through Town Unnoticed Once Again

Roped in by Reality TV

Somehow I watched 3 episodes of a "Beauty and the Geek" Marathon today. I first started watching because nothing else was on, but after a few minutes I was sucked in. The premise is that a beauty and a geek are paired up and they compete against other teams of beauties and geeks, and a team is eliminated at the end of each episode. Seems simple, but I must say there seems to be some value to the nonsense! What sucked me in was seeing how they evolved and through adversity became friends by breaking down commonly held stereotypes of geeks, and uber-pretty people.

I even found myself hoping that at least one beauty would like one of the geeks and they would live happily ever after. The reality is that the beauties look at there geeks like there cute, helpless puppies. Unfortunately for the geeks, nobody wants to hook up with puppies!

There were many funny geeky lines, but this is the one I remember.
BEAUTY: Why do you have a roll of ducktape on your belt?
GEEK: You never know when you'll need ducktape. It's like the force; dark on one side, light on the other, and it holds the universe together.

Sinterklaas!

Sinterklaas, kapoentje
Gooi wat in mijn schoentje,
Breng wat in mijn laarsje
Dank je Sinterklaasje.

Gifts

What a gift is a Godly wife! And I have one. She loves me very much. That may sound like a cliche, but its actually loaded with meaning. She loves ME. If you know me, that can be a challenge. I don't always treat people like I should, I hold grudges, overthink everything, have perfectionistic tendancies, I make fun of EVERYTHING and take out frustrations on her just because she's close in proximity. How's that fair?? It's not. I often don't know why she chose me, but she did, and I know that God directed her to do so... Thank God!

To know Amy is to love Amy (as the old song goes). She makes everything fun, and I make fun of everything. (I think that was a parallelism) She's honest, open and teachable. I have alot to learn from my wife. Why is it, that anyone who knows her for more than 5 minutes wants to call, come by or just in general be around?? She loves Jesus and that overflows on the rest of us. I, on the otherhand, rarely get phonecalls, emails, from people.(not fishing) Instead of depressing myself, I'll just chalk it up to guys don't do that sort of thing.

To you single folk: Look at the heart (figurative) and look for qualities of teachablitiy, faithfulness and vision. Or just look at Amy.

I am not Godly.

No, I'm not a comment whore that is begging for pats. But my feelings can be way wrong sometimes. I was called a 'boy' today, and boy did it hurt. I just want to do what I want to do, and have no consequences. Ya feel me? If you know me and care for me, please pray that the powers that be will have mercy on me, and show me compassion by letting me out of a committment I made. If not, well... I don't want to think about that right now. Do I deserve this? No. But that's what's so amazing about grace...
