Surplies

Okay the title of this post is the punch line to a really bad engrish joke (i.e. rincoln continental). That might be over some peoples heads but whatevs.

About the title of my last post I'm touched that you all thought about it etc. But I feel that I have misled you. My question was not where was the origin of the quote, but when was it that I first heard it. Now, granted there is a high likelihood that these two events would be the same, but in this case they are not. It was more of a "how well do you listen to my random comments" question. I didn't expect anyone to get it being that I only mentioned like once or twice that Mr. Reed (Heather Reed's dad) said this to me immediately following Spoonful's first waterfront performance. So there you have it. Your comments are awesome though because now I have a better idea of maybe where he got it from.

So the title surplies brings me to my main story that I'm posting about.
I completely forgot to mention this in my last post although it happened that week we were at Glendive doing VBS.

Sarah's laptop had given the team trouble while I was home for my sister's graduation. As they watched the entire LOTR trilogy (extended of course) they found that sarah's DvD player on her laptop would pause the movie every 2min 5sec. Wow, that would suck. So they asked me one night if I could come over and look at it because they really wanted to watch a movie that night. I was totally clueless you guys, when I opened the door I heard the standard "Surprise!" followed by Happy Birthday sung in perfect 4 part harmony. Okay all but the harmony part. I thought I was in the clear being that my b-day was like a week prior, but nooooo. It was really nice. We did what I wanted. So, after opening my presents (a mermaid that grows about 600% in water, a sign that says something like "for every possible argument there is an equal and oppisite one", some spray foam, a t-shirt that says "I'm right you're wrong, any questions?", and a nurf gun) we played charades and then sang karaoke from the wedding singer DvD. We had loads of fun and discovered a couple teammembers had some superb karaoke talent and zeal. Some of my teammates were so pumped they want to have karaoke be our next team outting.

So that's that.

I got to go paintballing yesterday...that is note-worthy. I got two kills and got killed twice. Good stuff though. I'm so tired today.
