Yo. It be labor day.

It's Monday morning and I'm getting into the groove - got several things I plan to accomplish today, set up a laptop for my dad to take back with him to the Philippines, re-arrange my drums, general house stuff, move more CD's to my iPod... things like that.

Speaking of the iPod, I'm really liking it. It's a very cool design... but the case is so delicate that it'll scratch if you LOOK at it wrong. That's a bit irritating as I generally like to keep most of my stuff looking new for the most part. My car's another story but I'll be replacing that soon.

Church went well Sunday. There was a bit more energy in the room as more folks got into it during the worship time. Things sounded good up on stage as far as I could tell, but I heard some comments that the mix could have been slightly better out in the crowd if someone else tried their hand at mixing. It would be nice to have a "pro" step in for a few sessions to see what they could do with it. Dave did a good job with the message despite having the wrong book/chapter references on his power point slides. I was able to find where he was but for some others, they may be thinking that their Bible translation is WAY different. Hehe.

A group of us hoofed it over to Logan's for some grub. Always a fun time as usual. Kids for the most part behaved. I've come to the conclusion that if you beat your kids when they do something you don't want them to do, they'll tend to not do those things anymore. If your kid's still doing things wrong, you're behind a few beatings. Your mileage may vary. I heard an interesting quote last night during the cookout: "The reason Kailyn's a dream kid is because she gets spanked whenever she does something wrong." From the results I've seen, the Burns are on the right track with her.

But I digress.

During our get together last night, we busted out with some guitars and the bongos and played several tunes. That was cool. It was also entertaining to hear Scott complain about pretty much every song. Also, there was his comment: "Ya'll are probably too old to remember this..." Seeing as how I was the oldest in the room, I was really touched. Nice.

Speaking of Scott, got his blogizzle added to my blog links. I've also added links to just a few of the sites I visit regularly.
