A case of the Mondays

Wow. It’s only 9:04?!

So this morning I woke up tired, but nothing unusual. I got dressed and prepped for work and then sat down at Laurie’s computer to check email and twitter and such.

Got several good emails this morning and finally decided to head to work (a little later than I should have).

As I headed towards the door I realized I had left my new good coat – and gloves in Laurie’s car last night. Of course she had them now with her on her way to work.

It was cold on my walk to and from the bus today — but I survived.

Then I got to work and poured a mug of coffee and realized it had a horrible soapy taste to it. Apparently the coffee pot wasn’t rinsed well.

I dumped my coffee poured out my mug and made a mug of coffee in my own french press. Mmmm nothing quite like it.

Two sips in and I get a couple text messages. As I reach for my phone I knocked over my coffee mug! 3rd time this year (at least). Coffee everywhere! Luckily I keep my desk fairly clean so not too much damage. I even managed to keep it off my pants this time!

So I grab paper towels and go to cleaning everything up. But then as I pick up my laptop to wipe it off, two large drops off coffee fall off the sides. One landing on either leg. Now I have to sizable coffee stains on my dockers. And it’s only 9:04!

Geeze. Can it get any worse?! Well yes. But it hasn’t yet. So I’ll go make my third mug of coffee and make sure I buy a new coffee mug with a lid before tomorrow morning.

And I’ll keep reminding myself that the moon is round.

But it’s sure been a case of the Monday’s today! 🙂

For more than just me…

Hitler does emergent


(embedded video)

Some of you might have no clue what they’re talking about here. So as a brief background, Tony Jones recently stepped down as the National Coordinator for Emergent Village. After he stepped down, Josh Case (now part of the Nick and Josh Podcast) posted a video suggesting that as part of the idea and concepts behind Emergent Village and “crowd-sourcing” (my words, not his) anyone who takes part in Emergent Village should now be a National Coordinator (I would add that it’s very similar in idea to the fact that because of Christ, we’re all now part of the priesthood).

But regardless, while this is a slam against Emergent Village I’m going to say this is greatness. Very funny. The “Scrawny Kiwi” writes that Matt, who posted the video, said it was made by Randy Brandt.

If you don’t quite understand the above video, maybe you’ll get a kick out of an earlier version that came out after my beloved Cowboys lost to the New York Giants in the playoffs last year.

Didn’t see this before. Guess we got bored or sleepy that week and missed it.

On a related note – who are you hoping to recruit for the 2012 or 2016 election? With two year campaigns becoming the norm, now might be a good time to start thinking that way.
