strawberry swings and such.


Hey all. I accidentally posted a blog entry before I had time to edit any of it. I think I deleted it before it went through to your Google Reader, your email, or anything of that nature. But if it went through - do not look at it! It doesn't contain any saucy information, it's just unfinished :) It's not very coherent. No spellcheck. And it contains a really fun review I don't want to spoil for you before I complete the whole thing. My apologies for being lame. I'm still new to this blog format. Also, humidity turns my brains to vapor. That I function at all during the summer is a miracle. Sometime this weekend, I'll add a book review, a boatload of the usual random and somewhat pointless ponderings, some fun links, and the final results of what happened when The Vicious Pandas faced off against The Puffy Kittens in the bowling game of the century. T-shirts are being made. Awesomeness will occur :)

Till then ... I was wondering if you might be up for a meme? I miss the days of yore, like three years ago, when people sent these suckers via email all the time. Now they just slide through Facebook and MySpace and I feel like a nerd if I do them. But here in the Swamp, I make the rules. And we celebrate Nerd-dom. Hope you feel like playing along! :)

    * Natalie, I LOVE Brooke Fraser. I think that video of Hosanna is from last years Hillsong Conference in Sydney. I tried to see if by some stroke of luck I was actually in the vid but, alas, I was probably blocked my Some Tall Person. Isn't that always the way of it?

  5. Allison, I only wish Amazon was a word I could use to describe myself :) I'm with you on the art. My niece sang along with Soulja Boy on the way to Knoxville the other day. It was really cute :) I've read your bro-in-law's blog before, and thought it was awesome. Then I forgot the address. I'll add him to my reader! Thanks for passing along the link.

    Sarah, you must fill me in on Australia! How long were you there? Did you go to Hillsong stuff fairly often? You've done some serious globe trotting! :) I'm a big Taylor Swift fan too. Have you seen her on CMT Crossroads with Def Leopard? SO good! (And as I am only 4'11", I can so relate to never ever being able to see at concerts).

    Ashley, awesome song pic. Are you a Say Anything fan (movie not the band)? Ya know ... "strawberry tacos" actually could work. Like Crepes with marscapone or something? Gah! We should be on Top Chef!

    Diet Dr. Pepper, extra ice. :)
