"So...I have some news that is going to knock your socks off!"
"Oh yeah?" ::sounds excited::
"Yes! It's really big." ::if this is in person, then the other 1/2 of the conversation glances down at my leftie to check for any new bling-bling:: "Are you ready?"
"Okay! My socks are on. I'm ready!" ::if this is via telephone, the other 1/2 of the conversation sounds increasingly excited::
"Calvin broke up with me."
"WHAT???!!!"
I like the news to come out of left field for the other person too. It makes me know that I have company with whom to be shocked with. Me? I'm doing better than can be expected. Certainly better than I deserve. God is good.

My socks are now missing, so I hope you can feel my company with you.
ReplyDeleteTotally changing the subject: I really like the look of the new blog. Except my favorite part of the preview (on OverAnalyzed) seems to be missing from the real thing. The pretty header design isn't showing up for me.
I'm on a different computer than the one I used to upload the design...and it works fine on here. I wonder if anyone else has had the problem your having?
ReplyDeleteI think God wants you to move to Wisconsin and marry me! Also, your blog loads fine on my computer (Internet Explorer Version 7)
