shifting sand

me beary happy

we turned 10 on the 11th. ^_^

we went on a quest for the humor post dog named benjie. a smaller version of the one i've been fixing my eyes on for some time now.

at the start of our adventure, the police made us pull over. i was puzzled. it turns out that they thought he was driving a private vehicle with illegal profit. i don't know why the police officer bothered asking us stupid questions since benj looked so nice. i guess he was just doing his job. he didn't stick around long enough for me to react. good for him. but thanks to him, i can tease benj endlessly about looking like a driver. but don't get the idea that you could do that, too. i won't let you get away with it.

anyway, i finally found a nice white bag. i only need shoes or sandals to pair with it. some of my shoes got stolen at the end of my stay in molave.

then we went looking for humor post. but found ourselves at bear huggs instead. i might consider going back for the blue pokemon-like thingie some time in the far future.

the pet shop was at one end of the floor and we had fun observing the puppies. and decided that puppies would have to come some time after marriage (but before babies) because they can steal my attention even from benj.

then we were hungry. we enjoyed a white chicago deep dish and stuffed sausage and something pizza at sbarro's. then we went to my favorite cake shop and savored bailey's chocolate cake and blueberry cheesecake. i was going to buy benj a whole cake earlier but we weren't sure then if we were going to commute or not.

when we were finally full, we decided to forget about humor post and went to toy kingdom instead. i fell in love with this wild looking bear cub and carried it around during our whole stay there. benj liked a dog that looked like the real one at the pet shop earlier. but he ditched it for a blue 4d puzzle dragon in an instant. he was under a lot of time pressure since the store announced that they were closing.

and we went home happy. but i left the bear with him.

the end. ^_^

pirate song

We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
And we pray that our unity will one day be restored
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
Yeah they'll know we are Christians by our love

We will work with each other, we will work side by side
We will work with each other, we will work side by side
And we'll guard each man's dignity and save each man's pride
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
Yeah, they'll know we are Christians by our love

the highlighted line is the title.

i was listening to this song earlier and i wondered why i didn't notice the creativity behind the song before. it's sung the way pirates sing. so what makes it so significant? pirates sing together to synchronize their rowing. in the same way, the universal body of Christ should work as one and advance His kingdom.
