I woke up this morning ... I took a shower and brushed my teeth ... the sun is shining bright in the sky ... I can hear my Chihuahua's barking outside ... it's monday morning and it's good to be alive ... this past weekend was probably the craziest in my life ... my wife left for the Stirring women's retreat ... she took little Ashdaddy, but left me with the girls ... fortunately, my mom came up for the weekend to help ... on Friday afternoon, I filmed for a couple of hours for 'man in the water' ... friday evening, I drove over to Sean Gafners house for poker ... I spent some time with the guys ... I ate amazing Carne Asada Tacos ... I drank Iced Tea ... I lost five dollars ... I came home ... that night, I worked a bit on a film for Sunday night ... on Saturday, I woke up ... I spent time with my daughters ... I climbed into my Tuxedo ... I drove to the Episcipalian Church for a wedding ... I drank a Red Bull ... she walked down the aisle ... they said I do ... I said, I now pronounce you husband and wife ... I drove home ... late that afternoon, I filmed a couple more scenes for 'man in the water' which premieres this Friday night at Erase the Dark, our music, art and film festival ... I'm stoked about this festival ... it's been a dream for a few years, and finally we are doing it ... we've got at least 6 films and 6 artists performing ... don't miss it ... back to my weekend ... then Saturday night I ate dinner ... and then I spent some time with God ... praying and getting ready for Sunday night ... late that night, I finished the Jon Miller video for Sunday night ... then I went to bed ... then I woke up Sunday morning ... I ate breakfast and hung out with my daughters ... I drove to Risen King Community Church ... I announced Erase the Dark and passed out fliers both services ... at least 50 different people said, oh yeah, I'll be there ... we'll see ... then I drove home ... ate lunch ... spent some time with my wife talking about the Women's Retreat ... amazing ... over 40 women on this retreat ... I could not imagine ... but I hear it was awesome ... I'm already planning our first ever Stirring Men's Retreat ... all you can eat Carne Asada Tacos ... all night poker ... rock climbing ... fist fights ... all night risk (for those who get knocked out poker) ... more all you can eat Carne Asada Tacos ... more rock climbing ... more fist fights ... I'll never forget what happened a couple of years ago ... we were at the Perry's cabin for a retreat ... during the middle of the night, Juan snuck into my room ... and while I was sleeping, Juan flipped my mattress off my bed, with me in it ... and so when I woke up, I was in the middle of the air ... I landed on the ground and rolled into the wall ... freaky ... I wasn't happy ... an hour later I was tucked back in bed ... I fell asleep ... they did it again ... I don't want to talk about this story anymore ... I'm getting more and more upset ... anyways, coming soon ... the first ever Stirring Men's retreat ... this is so much fun ... blogging and blogging and blogging and competing against Amy Coverdale in the blogging Olympics ... I will not give up ... my fingers are numb ... my hands are getting tired ... I'm drinking a Red Bull ... but I will not give up ... I've worked hard to get here this morning ... to compete in these games ... two more paragraphs ... you can do it, nathan ... just keep typing ... don't stop moving those fingers across that keyboard ... cheering ...
seriously, this morning's breakfast was delicious ... I made bacon and eggs and toast and moons over my hammy ... real simple, check it out ... all you need ... a bag of Costco bacon ... lots and lots of bacon strips ... yummy, yummy bacon ... 6 eggs ... white eggs, not brown eggs ... the bigger the better ... a toaster and bread ... place the bread in the toaster ... very, very gently ... don't burn your little fingers on the toaster ... turn the toaster to medium high, and when the toast pops out, don't be alarmed ... it's ready ... 1/2 lb bag of ham ... pre-heat oven to 300 degrees ... place bacon and ham into the oven for 30 minutes ... until they melt together in every way possible ... then microwave the eggs for 6 minutes ... until yellow and runny ... place the toast on a plate ... carefully drap bacon and ham on top of toast ... then drizzle eggs upon the top ... moons over my hammy ... amazing ... makes 4 servings ... if you want, sprinkle 1/2 a bag of grated cheese on top ... I call this moons and cheese over my hammy ... also, some like it with less eggs ... only microwave 3 eggs ... I call this 'half moon' over my hammy ... great for grandpa's and grandma's who eat less ... and if you're allergic to cheese and eggs (bummer), then just eat the bacon and ham on the toast ... I call this 'hammy' ... and if you just want eggs, then just eat eggs ... I call this 'moons' ... and you can eat this for breakfast or lunch or dinner ... the kids love it .. the wife loves it ... the neighbors love it ... jeremy coverdale loves it ... pretty much a 30 minute meal ... yes, a Nathan Edwardson recipe ... one of my favorite ... one day, I may publish all my recipes in my very own cookbook ... this blog is taking forever ... keep typing ... you're almost there ... one more paragraph ...
My wife gave me some money today to get my hair cut ... she's amazing ... I love my family ... so I went to Amy Endecott to get my hair cut ... she is crazy ... good crazy ... and had this idea to give me a mohawk ... the haircuts that mom and dad refused to let you have in middle school ... but, now I'm 30 years old ... if I want a mohawk, I can get a mohawk ... bring it on ... I know this blog has gone on for a while but I have just one more story to share ... it's one of my kitchen stories ... just last week, we discovered a tribe of army ants living in our kitchen ... thousands of ants living right our nose ... my wife went Nazi on those ants ... seriously, she spent almost all day slaughtering an entire village of ants ... king ants and queen ants and baby ants and army ants and other bugs with wings ... these little winged creatures have been flying around our kitchen for weeks ... I kept asking, what are they and where are they coming from ... unbelievable ... seriously, I can't feel my fingers ... I feel like I'm typing a marathon ... one more lap ... one more sentence ... one more word ...
this is now the longest blog ever ... 1,064 words ...
