Josh-Thanks for starting the rumors. Yes, you'd like the movie.
Joy-I went to the movie with a semi-Joy-like person and she squealed a few times. It's not too bad though. You may have to cover your eyes once or twice.

Happy Birthday, Rachel. It's my sister-in-law's birthday today. Her baby belly is getting very big. I guess that happens when you are due in a month. It's funny because I had to pull her aside today to ask her a girly question, and the first thing she says to me is "Are you pregnant?" NO. Then Gayle walks in the room and we said we were talking and pregnancy came to Gayle's mind too. NO. Ryan and I got to see "V for Vendetta" at the IMAX for free tonight. Very good movie. You should go and see it. Joy, you'll have to cover your eyes over some parts.

Here we go again...Our adult dolphin, Rio, died yesterday. We have no idea how it happened. She was perfectly fine on Sunday. On Monday she didn't eat anything, which is strange for Rio. We were doing overnight watches last night so we could keep our eye on her. At around 9:00 pm she started having trouble breathing. When I got there and in the water with Rio and the other trainers, she had taken her last breath and her heart stopped. I was able to go to the necropsy (animal autopsy), but they couldn't find anything. Everything looked completely normal. It's very frustrating. I can't believe we have to go through this again. Why? Why? Why? I'm still in shock.

Last Friday I got to go to a banquet at Ryan's school, recognizing the students. It was great to see his school and get to meet his students that I hear so much about. The students that I did get to meet were very polite and just all around interesting guys. It was a proud moment for me when I heard a few parents tell Ryan that he was their child's favorite teacher.

On Saturday Ryan and I went to a David Crowder/Third Day concert at the Target Center. It was a big venue and our seats were very high up, but it was still a good time and a place where I encountered God. That's what's important at a Christian concert, right?

I received an e-mail from someone from church asking me if I wanted to go to a Natalie Grant concert with her. First off, the woman from church I didn't know and also I'd never heard of Natalie Grant. But I figured, why not. I wanted to get to know more people at church, so this was a great opportunity. I did get to meet Johanna, the woman I went with, the week before the concert. She was very easy to talk to and I knew we would have a good time together. The concert was yesterday and we had a good time. She had tickets front row center. Too bad I couldn't sing along with one song when I'm so close!

Well, that's about all for know.
