a few thoughts to catch up

Happy New Year, just a wee bit late!

It's been a goofy kind of last few days, so I thought I would put together a list to welcome in the new year.

• How 'bout them Dawgs!?!? Them boys put a whuppin' on the Rainbow Warriors and Colt Brennan.
• UGA coach Mark Richt is a quality man, and I think we'd be buds if we lived close enough to hang out.
• WVU is pounding Oklahoma right now. Couple that with the UGA win, mix in a horrible performance by LSU and Ohio State, and crown UGA the Champeen of the world of college football.
• I like college sports more than the professional version.
• My 12 year old son knows more about the NFL rosters than I do. It's funny to answer most of his questions with, "Hmm, I don't know, bud."
• I spent most of the last few days on the DL, so the end of the year vacation feels a little wasted.
• I'm feeling a bit like I belong in the scratch 'n dent bin lately. I don't want to bore you with the details of all my various ailments (lest I begin to sound like those folks we go to see at the nursing home), but suffice it to say that the doc prescribed a muscle relaxer for neck spasms, and I may be getting a little loopy as this post develops!
• I came home tonight from a pretty good 1st XStream of the new year to find out that the entire house is grounded from any and all new Christmas gifts, including the Wii. Apparently there's been some broken furniture downstairs and no one is putting things away when they're done Wiiing.
• I confirmed a spot on the Spring Break mission trip to the Dominican Republic for me and Levi. I am pumped! You should be expecting a letter in the mail asking you to pray for us!
• We had a good meeting with parents tonight. I wanted to talk to them to let them know that we'll be teaching on SEX in the month of February with our middle school and high school groups.

OK, I think that'll do.

I'm working on a few pretty cool things that I hope to be sharing with you in the days to come.
