Campin’!

Our annual camping trip happened this past weekend. It was a heap of fun, as per usual. Because we typically have so much fun, this has turned into one of our annual events with Bobby & Ian. This was our fifth trip.

The brand of camping to which we subscribe is not so much the traditional type, so much as it is temporarily relocating most of our possessions to a more rural setting. There’s no way James or Ian will sleep on the ground in a tent, so we compromise and rent a cabin. In the past, the cabins have been a bit more rustic – small but with modern conveniences. The cabin we rented this time was a 1600 sf house, complete with gas fireplace and a washer and dryer.

Jumping the Shark

I learned a new term today, “Jumping the Shark”. This is both funny as well as useful.

The Wikipedia link above explains the term well. I’ve never heard it used prior to seeing it on a website today, which proclaimed that that website itself had “jumped the shark.” I assumed by the context that it meant it was past it’s prime, but this term is even more specific.

The Name Game

OK, so Gallop posted this game on his blog, who stole the game from somebody, who stole the game from someone else. So I’m stealing it, too.

The rules are easy. Take your favorite band or artist (or just an appropriate one) and answer the following questions using only the titles of their songs as answers, as I have done below:

1. Name of band/artist: Jimmy Buffett

2. Are you male or female?: Jolly Mon

3. Describe yourself: My Head Hurts, My Feet Stink and I Don’t Love Jesus

4. How do you feel about yourself?: King of Somewhere Hot

5. Describe your ex girlfriend/boyfriend: I Can’t Be Your Hero Today

6. Describe current girlfriend/boyfriend: Bigger Than the Both of Us

7. Describe where you want to be: Back to the Island

8. Describe how you live: Havana Daydreamin’

Piccies!

I have had a flickr account with a handful of photos on it for a little while now. Tim has recently put a bunch on his and done a good job of organizing, so I thought I would follow suit and do the same. It’s fun, and will be updated regularly. ๐Ÿ™‚
