We Like The Moon (and Perigee!)

Tonight, the full moon is also the Perigee Moon — which means it’s actually at it’s closest point to us. Here in northern Michigan, we have a beautiful clear night as well, so the view is spectacular. In celebration of the Full, Perigee moon, I give you the Spongemonkey’s rendition of, “We Like the Moon.” You’re welcome. 🙂

Exciting Excitement

Today was our first large Youth Group gathering. (My wife and I are the youth leaders for our church) The object lesson was a cup of tea, or more specifically, steeping a cup of tea. Here’s the video I made for the event. Don’t judge me. 🙂 Just in case YouTube is blocked for you, here’s a direct link to … Read more

If I Were a Star

A literal star I mean. I would want to be a brown dwarf. They just look cool, what with their eerie glowingness and all. If I couldn’t be a brown dwarf, I would want to be a star large enough to go supernova, because I think that’d be fun. I’d also want to be large enough to be a black … Read more

I Blow My Nose at You, English Pig Dog!

(She actually didn’t have pink eye, but it sure looked like it, and we didn’t want her to miss a day of school) On the way home, Donna and our oldest were discussing the odd accent the Urgent Care doctor had. His name sounded Latino, but his accent … Read more

Little Bobby Tables

This comic made me laugh so hard I almost had to replace my coffee-soaked keyboard. You may want to swallow your caffeinated beverage of choice before reading any further. (Yeah right, you know you read the comic before reading this. You open the present before the card on your birthday too, don’t you?!?!)

Fruit Fly Invasion

My office has been overrun with fruit flies. Mind you, my office is cleaner than it’s ever been — but the custodians haven’t been taking out my garbage, so apparently I now have a fruit fly version of Motel 6. Sometimes the swarm is so bad that I want to gouge out my eyes, and this morning, that almost happened. … Read more

Blue Slushies

All 3 of our kids are in public schools this year, which is a really big deal, because we’ve been homeschooling for a long time. So far, it’s been going well. It helps that I work at the school, and Donna substitutes as an aide. In fact, today Donna told me a hilarious story about our youngest, Lizzie. Donna was … Read more
