Such a Blessing

I'm still commiserating with my wife over the Hogs' loss to the Gators, so to help me work things out, I'm posting this.

Last week, I had a very rare treat--I got to meet someone "offline." I got to meet Even So himself.



I'm the one in the glasses.



He was there with Mrs. Even So.



Aren't they a cute couple?



They had driven from Florida all the way to Oklahoma, and were willing to change their homegoing route just to come up and meet us.

Ok, not just for that--they also wanted to watch Florida/Florida State.

We met at TGI Fridays. It was such a wonderful time.



All of us together. Aren't we purty?



As J.D. said, we'd better get used to each other--we'll be spending an eternity together in the future.

Here's his version of events. I just want to tell them both again how much we appreciated the opportunity to meet and talk with y'all last week. I'd take your side over the McCoys any day of the week.

Oh, and in case you missed it, J.D. also has a book coming out--a series of devotions, based on the blog. More details to come, I'm sure.

JD has changed since his avatar picture was taken. He looks kind of like Josh Groban now.

I'm not even a hogs fan and I almost died on Saturday. That was either the best game I ever saw or the worst. I can't tell yet.

It's unkind of you to stand on a box when you take pictures with other people.

Buggy: is that Josh Groban's old look, or his new and improved one?

Cent: right there with you.

DJP: The crazy thing about that is, when I told him how honored & nervous I was to meet a famous blogger like him, he offered to kneel down, so I would feel so inferior.

That's just the kind of guy he is.

DJP: does this mean I am on the short list for the pyro bloroll?...

I'm not sure what a "bloroll" is, but I guess it prolly has to do with being longwinded...
