Things that are stupid:
Things not to do (from recent observations/conversations):
1. Spilling your drink in a public restaurant. I did it Sunday. Wendy did it tonight. Stacey created a monsoon at Logan's once. J-mo started building an ark out of french fries when that happened. But when you do such a thing, usually a dozen or so people look at you and their stares just scream, "Look at that stupid person."
2. Falling asleep while playing guitar. Does not instill confidence in fellow band members ;-). Well, hitting a crapload of wrong notes doesn't help, either...LOL. (relax, we're all guilty at some point...)
3. Mixing dating and evangelistic/ministerial effort. Never a good thing. It's like packaging potential awkwardness with altrusm. (Wait..."I don't even know what that means"). It's like, "Jesus loves you, and so do I. But if I dump you...or you dump me...Jesus still loves you, so we can still go to church together."
4. Thinking that the life you lead with your fiance before you get married will be much different after you get married.
5. Turning your back on your child in a booster seat at a restaurant. Let's just say Kailyn discovered (again) that the law of gravity is not a law you can break.
Okay...enough stupid stuff.
Well, I lied...something else stupid happened today. Came home from getting lunch, and there was a car DOUBLE PARKED in my driveway. Turns it it was a DishTV installation guy. I was thinking, "I don't remember ordering DishTV." Anyway...I asked, "Can I help you?" He says, "I'm here to install your satellite." I say, "I didn't order satellite TV." He says, "Is this (insert my address here)?" I reply, "Yes, but I did NOT order satellite TV." He then...and I kid you not...asks me if my name was Toshiro Hori. And as he caught what he said, it was obvious that a light went off in his brain as he realized that such a name didn't match my Caucasian appearance, and he then quickly asked whether or not I knew where the person with that name lived. It's a shame he came to his senses, because I really wanted to ask, "Do I look like a Toshiro to you?" Anyway, I made an educated guess and pointed him in what proved to be the right direction.
Well, it was funny to me...
KEY PHRASES: "Man, you can play all that, but can't do something that simple?" "But $1300 is a relative steal for such quality guitar equipment." "It's not a 'fetish,' it's just that there's usually nothing else worth talking about." "
