Happy Thanksgiving

Happy thanksgiving to you all!  God has blessed me in so many ways, one of which is with a beautiful wife! We are spending the day together and I am looking forward to it. 

Last night we had a couple over for dinner and this was a comment I overheard:

One of them turns to the other and says "Pick my nose...I'm going to get some more tacos."

We all burst out laughing...just so you know the context was that we were custumizing an avatar on the 360 and the next thing to do was to choose/pick the nose of the avatar.  The comment was said without realizing what it sounded like...so everyone laughed.

Give God the Glory

It is 7:00am and I just witnessed a very beautiful red sunrise while looking out a 5th story window here at work. A song that I used to sing when I was a kid came to mind: 

Rise and Shine

aka - Children of the Lord

aka - The Arky Arky Song

Rise and Shine and give God the glory, glory

Rise and Shine and give God the glory, glory

Rise and Shine and give God the glory, glory

Children of the Lord

It fits well with how I started my day out today by praying and giving God the glory and also seeing the beautiful sunrise...if only I had a camera on me to capture the beauty of it.

PS - I forgot about the whole arky arky part of the song...all I could remember was the chorus.

Malls

Yesterday I went to the mall with Wanda and Kim.  I knew it was going to be a mess just by the lack of parking spaces available.  Guess I know that I shouldn't return to a mall for the rest of the year!  I do not particularly enjoy going to busy places like that.

While I was at the mall I made some observations.  Outside of most stores targetted mainly to women (particularly Bath and Body works) there were a few men standing outside.  I looked around and found this on other stores as well.  Don't you think it would be good to install some benches that say "Men Only" where the men could sit while waiting for their significant other?  The prime locations for these would  be right outside many of the more feminine stores that the men may not care to go into.

While I am joking, I will comment that there is not much sitting room in the Rosedale mall...especially this time of year.
