When there's nothing else to blog about...

Have you ever experienced that moment when you suddenly realize you haven't posted a blog in almost 2 weeks, you are out of witty ideas, and there have been no significant events in your recent life to talk about?  I hadn't either, till today.  Since I've got nothing else to blog about, I'll just tell you about some of the other moments I've experienced lately.

-That moment when you are holding a baby and someone starts asking questions about him as if he is yours...
-That moment when you realize that all three of the elderly women playing Wii bowling just beat your personal high score...
-That moment when your greatest joy is that everyone sang a hymn to the same melody...
-That moment when you and a group of missionaries Google Street View your homes, and you realize you're probably the only one in the house who grew up in a cornfield...
-That moment when you find yourself using "Google Street View" as a verb...
-That moment when it's 10 minutes before you're about to talk to a bunch of lawyers, and you're not quite sure what you're about to say...
-That moment when you start winning your made-up game of Guess-What-Size-The-Baby-Clothes-Are-Before-You-Check-The-Tag...
-That moment when you feel so accomplished for implementing an organized system for donated kids' shoes (aka put them in a bag and write the size on the bag)...
-That moment when you are told to find a magazine picture depicting where you want to be, and you decide on the picture you want before noticing that the caption says "A Nebraska Adventure"...
-That moment when you realize that Thanksgiving is less than a week away...
-That moment when you squirt grapefruit juice all over yourself and the person beside you, and you remember why you don't eat grapefruits that often...
-That moment when you realize that you're the one falling asleep playing Chinese Checkers, while the elderly are awake and alert...
-That moment when you learn just how many times you must have watched Remember the Titans when you were younger, cause you can still quote most of the movie after several years...
-That moment when you know how many diapers are in your hand, give or take one, without having to count them...
-That moment when a lawyer asks you what you think people's views are towards the homeless in this city, and you find that you actually do have an opinion for him...
-That moment when you're happily sleeping in the car, and you wake up because your ears are popping due to altitude changes...
-That moment when you come home from a run to find confessions going on in the front room...
-That moment when you begin to understand why people who don't ski still come to the mountains in the winter.  Let me demonstrate for you... [photo credit to Liv]
