I’m starting a new once a year segment entitled Sunday night Grey Cup update in which I give you an update on the Grey Cup. Update: I found out that the Grey Cup was today from Ashlee-Heather. Nuff said. Really though I had a dream last night that I was playing football and it was only three downs and I was in an argument with the team I was playing against saying there is 4 downs in football. And then I woke up with Ardy’s tail in my face.

In other news, I don’t really know who won the Grey Cup but I can tell you that I have a Toronto Argonauts T-Shirt that says “Friend of the Argos” on it. I bought it from a thrift store. One time I was wearing that in Maine and a lady from Quebec saw me walking by and read my shirt aloud. She said “Friend of the Argos.” and then said ” hmmm I’m a friend of the Allouettes (Montreal’s CFL team)” I was about to say..  ”Oh really, one time I was in Montreal and tried to order some mcnuggets from mcdonald’s but the friend of the allouettes behind the counter wouldn’t give ‘em to me because I didn’t speak French.” but thought nah forget it yo homes to bel-air [I used this one before but it's so nice I got to see it twice]. I’m just joking they did give me the mcnuggets but I’m pretty sure one of my brothers didn’t get his hamburger.

In yet other news, it’s a little known fact that Ashlee-Heather and I like to quote old Friends episodes to each other and sometimes even in public. The other day at the church we were moving some rocking chairs up some stairs for the first annual Rock-a-thon and I kept saying Pivot, Pivot, Pivvoot. Ashlee-Heather was diggin it. No one else knew what was going on. Rule # 32 “Enjoy the little things.” I also like to quote this one. Ashlee-Heather likes to text me lines sometimes. But not while driving.

And finally, The Rock has come back. Good night Canada, and America I didn’t have turkey last Thursday. I’ll get you next year.

I’d like to introduce a new segment entitled “since you’ve been gone” in which I tell you a numerous amount of things that I’ve been up to since the last post over a year ago. This is based loosely on the song by Kelly Clarkson which I woke up singing the other day. You never know what you’re going to wake up singing. That sounds like a tweet to me. Anyway, Since you’ve been gone Ashlee-Heather and I are having a baby! Ashlee-Heather has been working on a master list of names for the baby which I think are mostly girly but she does have a few good ones which I won’t reveal yet. Here are a few that are on that list and you can come to your own conclusion. If you’re a guy reading this and have this name I don’t necessarily mean that you are girly but that Ashlee-Heather’s list is an economic girly man. Anyway, here are a few of the names.

Finn
Dawson
Riley
Sethy
Ashlee Jr.

 In other news, since you’ve been gone I stopped a break-in in progress at my new church. Some young dude tried to roll up in there and steal stuff. I saw him and ran after him and hollered “Hey!” “Get Back Here!” and chased after him.  He was a quick little fella. Ashlee-Heather asked me what I would have done if I would have caught up to him. I probably would have just ran by him saying “nice night for an evening eh?”. Turns out he was just looking for the youth group. Just joking but that would have been pretty awesome. Now when I see youth I know at church I get a tough walk on and say “Is that the intruder?” You gotta mix it up now and then.

In yet other news, since you’ve been gone Ashlee-Heather and I also got a kitten and named him Ardy. If you want to see some photos I think A-Heather has about 907 of him on her facebook page. He is pretty cool cat (not to be confused with ‘The Cat’, that’s what we call my dad for his cat like instincts). Ardy’s almost like a dog. One time we locked him in our bedroom while we cleaned or something and he pooped on the bed. Cleaning his litter isn’t the greatest of jobs. I once made a poster for a competition in grade 6 (6th grade) that said “don’t be a quitter pick up your litter.” I wish I had that poster still, I’d post it right next to Ardy’s litter box. Ashlee-Heather “didn’t know” that pregnant people couldn’t clean the litter when we got Ardy. The other day A-Heather told me that Ardy is almost at the age where he’s ready for the salvation talk.

And finally, since you’ve been gone I’ve taken up watching the Xfactor with this little guy who’s got mad rhymes. That’s just game recognizing game. Well, it’s good to be back. Good night Canada, and America swag it out.
