Many of you may have noticed the significant decrease in Eric's random daily routine stupid blogs.  Well, this is because I have found other outlets for these (as a result of  many of your complaints about the infamous cereal blog).

However, I feel that we should still share with each other, no?

First and most impressively: One of our chickens laid an egg today!  I know that's what they're supposed to do, but it's still damn cool.  We bought the chickens as 3 day old chicks and have raised them, endured a hawk attack, and nurtured them for over 6 months, anticipating this very day. 

Mid morning brought an unusually loud bizarre clucking from the henhouse and sure enough when I went out to check on them, there was one lone brown egg sitting in a nest made out of hay.

Second and least impressively:  I went to the gym today to swim, but forgot my towel, so I had to work out on the elliptical instead.  I have never used an elliptical.  For the first 5 minutes, I looked like a total spaz and even managed to somehow start running backwards on it without trying to.  This isn't the only stupid observation, though.  The gym always has an MTV style channel playing on their half dozen TV sets and it's typically what you'd expect, mindless pop and musclehead new rock or whatever.  Yet, today, they played "How Bizarre" by OMC. 


This song is terrible.  It has always been terrible, and it always will be terrible.  Why are they still playing it?  The most notable thing about them playing this song, however, is that the gym I used to go to when this song came out always played the damn song too.  That was like 10 years ago.  Can we agree to move on when it comes to some songs?

I think it's time.
