On Our Way To Crazy

In the past couple of weeks we have scored tickets to both WICKED and Counting Crows at the Ryman. WICKED! Counting Crows at the Ryman! Are you kidding me? I am dying of excitement and the shows aren’t for months.

Remedy Drive’s song, “All Along”, is still number one at radio. That’s FIVE WEEKS straight. This is very exciting.

We had a junior high girls sleepover on Friday night at the church. That is my most favorite group. (Don’t tell the other kids.) They are just so much fun, I can’t even stand it. We did a video scavenger hunt (one group got a cop to draw a chalk line around a girl in front of a crowded movie theater), played the wii, made up stories and flamingoed the senior pastor’s house. It was a good night.

I have been rereading the Harry Potter books over the past several weeks. Have you read Harry Potter? You should read Harry Potter. Aaron came in the other day and said that, for having read something ten thousand times, I was concentrating awfully hard. I had to explain to him that it was because I didn’t want to miss anything. That they are so awesome that you are completely engaged and enamored with that world every time. That I would move to Hogwarts if I could. I don’t think he gets it.

So You Think You Can Dance is back on! Happy day! I am not kidding when I say it’s the best show on TV. I love everything about it. I didn’t even know I loved dance until I started watching it; now I am the kind of person who will sit all day watching an America’s Best Dance Crew marathon. It’s just so joyful and fun. LOVE.

This afternoon Aaron went to play disc golf with some of the youth group boys. I decided to check out some open houses in the neighborhood, because I really love our neighborhood and also because I am nosy. I was standing in the kitchen of one house when I heard a familiar voice. I came around the corner to find DON AND LORI CHAFFER of Waterdeep in the living room. Waterdeep! My favorite favorite! It was very exciting. We run into people we love every now and then in town, but I am always to scared to look like an idiot so I don’t say anything. But this time I did! I am so impressed with myself. I stopped Lori in the driveway as we were walking out and introduced myself and told her I am a big fan of them and I would be mad at myself if I didn’t say anything. Then we had a conversation about the neighborhood (they just moved to Nashville) and soon we will be BFFs. Get pumped.

I love this commercial. I want to hire that guy to be my personal driver. And we will just drive around singing Biz Markie songs all day long.
