My relationship with the Olympics

It's a love/hate thing.

I love them so much that I have been staying up WAY past my bedtime for the past four nights. And there's no end in sight. That's where the hate comes in. I want to sleep... but I can't.

As long as people are still flinging their bodies around on pommel horses and splashing around in pools, I guess I'll just have to be tired.

Dear St. Joseph

Folklore says that if you bury a statue of St. Joseph upside down in your front yard, there will soon be offers on your home.

That's why this kit should be arriving on our doorstep within a few days:


I confess, I know very little about the saints. Particularly St. Joseph. And I feel guilty for only trying to make friends with him when I need something. But, if he's willing to help...

Although, if someone bought me for $2.99 and trapped me underground (upside down, nonetheless!), I'm not sure how willing I'd be to help them.

Crazy weather on Lake Superior (Note: This picture is not altered AT ALL. This is exactly how the lighting looked at that moment. It was unlike anything I'd ever seen!)

Hmm, something's different....

So, what do you think?

I like it. And I think Jonathan will be really proud of me for using html code and stuff. =)
