MIB 3

Posted by Scott at 11:59 PM

Good morning! It looks like it won't be nearly as muggy and uncomfortable as yesterday. Claire has to work and we're thinking of seeing "MIB 3" after we have our usual Sunday morning Donut Fresh Express breakfast. It's a lazy Sunday morning since we went to Mass last night. 6:46am

Claire biked to Subway. We had breakfast at DFE. When we got back, Michelle asked me to test the sprinklers. Turns out the lawn crew had manually shut off their water supply and forgot to reset it. 9:31am

This morning I introduced Timothy to the usage of RSS. Since his laptop came with Akregator, we started with that and added a few of his favorite web sites. 9:33am

New Hampshire House Passes Three Pro-Life Bills on Abortion. 10:08am

Ordered Timothy the book Bridge to America after checking that our local bookstore didn't already carry it. 10:56am

Official web siteAbout to see Men in Black 3 with the kids. Even though it's opening weekend, the theater is empty. Must be a combination of the nice weather and the four screens they're showing it on... 11:45am

Back from seeing MIB³. While some have panned it as mediocre, Michelle and I were rather touched by how it ended. It had a surprising twist. We stopped at McD's on the way home for more dollar smoothies and frappes. 2:49pm

We hung out in the front yard for a spell when we got home. Man! The heavy pollen outside! It happens every year about this time. The driveway gets covered in yellow dust and when the breeze kicks up, you can see swirls of the dust in the air. I've been keeping my car in the garage. 2:51pm

Another amazing story of a scientific discovery by a sixteen year old. While not involved in detecting cancer like that recent one I posted, still impressive. 3:52pm

Went with Michelle and the younger kids to her friend Tammy's house for dinner. Abby is going to stay there overnight tonight. Claire has been spending the evening with her friend Shauna. My nose is burning with that "I've got to sneeze" feeling every few minutes. 7:42pm

Ah, no wonder I'm sneezing... (Twitter photo link) 7:48pm

That does it. Sinus saline rinse time. I don't care if it's a mild form of self induced waterboarding. Got to get that pollen outta there! 8:11pm

Got the boys tucked in bed with their prayers. Hoping my sneezing doesn't keep me awake tonight. Good night all! 8:30pm

“When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them,
‘Receive the Holy Spirit.
Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them,
and whose sins you retain are retained.’ ”
