Floating Thoughts: 4/27/2008
- Today is my dad’s 73rd birthday. We had all 5 kids at home yesterday to celebrate. It’s been a long time since all five of us were in the same place at the same time. Happy Birthday dad!
- We took a family portrait with all 5 of us kids, and I’m working on editing it in the GIMP right now. Good way to put those skills to use.
- Got my Praxis for school administration out of the way yesterday. I either bombed it or passed it easily, I’m not sure which yet. I find out in a short 4 weeks.
- I’ve taken like 3 Airebornes today. Experiencing some weird, flu-like symptoms that come and go. Didn’t make it to church this morning because of it.
- Starting to make summer plans. So far, we’ve got a sturgeon fishing trip on the docket, another trip to the coast, and a trip to Leavenworth, Washington. And–are you sitting down for this? Susan and I might actually get to go on a honeymoon at some point!
- Hometown native and former Oregon State University offensive guard Roy Schuening was selected in the fifth round by the St. Louis Rams this weekend, in the NFL draft. Quite a bit lower than expected, but I have no doubt he’ll make a name for himself. He started 50 consecutive games at OSU, a school record. Durable with a capital “D”. He’ll be blocking for another Oregon State guy, Steven Jackson.
- That’s about it for now; I’m thinking about an early bed time tonight.
