Catching Up

Hello to all of you in bloggerland and beyond. I know it has been quite a while since our intrepid hero has posted on "The Song of Moses," but between my trip to the South Pacific and some other odd circumstances, I haven't had much time to post. 


The trip to Kosrae and Yap were wonderful and I'm in the process of creating some posts with pictures for everyone. So, be on the lookout for those.

Update:

1) Saw The Dark Knight twice. I know I am probably a big loser, but I enjoyed it. 
2) Saw Mamma Mia. I know I am an even bigger loser, but I enjoyed it. Abba rules.
3) My wife and I are preparing for our first vacation in three years! We will be traveling to Houston and Washington D.C. next week.
4) We went on a date last night to the Grand Sierra and had a fantastic time. That reminds me, let me relate some of our people watching observations.

People Watching 101

1) Do girls really look in a mirror before they go out for the evening? Honestly, are dresses that show too much of your chest or barely cover your bottom, and high heals that make you walk like a wobbly duck considered attractive these days? We saw a herd (bad choice of words--they weren't you know...just a gaggle of 20-ish girls trying to hard to be "attractive") stagger out of the restroom in a state of obvious intoxication. Such a sight to behold.
2) Is it okay to stroll through the GSR in your pajamas at 11 PM on a Saturday night?
3) Only some people can pull off this outfit: pink Converse Chuck shoes, short army shorts, a black t-shirt, and a fishing cap.
4) There was a lady near our area--mid 40s--who had a fashion nightmare happening on Saturday. Picture this: daisy duke blue jean shorts, black high heels, and a short dress worn as a top. Now, we didn't notice the shorts at first--we just thought she was wearing a dress that was, let's say, way too revealing. But, what made the outfit was this: the dress "top" that had straps which formed an X. I guess the pink bra straps were just an added bonus for all those in the GSR.
5) In the same group, another woman (mid 40s) was wearing a simple outfit: blue jeans and an orange top. What made her stand out was her tummy, the one she decided to show everyone repeatedly. I thought it was great that she let a member of her party continually rub (or shake) her belly.
6) Just because you are 6'8" doesn't mean you can play basketball. It doesn't even mean you'll be coordinated. If you are this tall, please be careful when you dance around others. Or, where someone like me will be watching. You're funny.
7) The daunting black shoes, pulled up black dress socks, fanny pack, and white t-shirt outfit made an appearance last night. Bonus: He was under the age of 60.
8) Spandex shorts and leggings were so 1980s. But, I guess they've returned.
9) Are children in strollers considered an accessory, especially in a casino at midnight?
10) My wife was beautiful. A simple outfit: jeans, nice new top, and a smile. What else could I ask for? 

Well, that's all the news that's fit to print. Stay tuned. Posting shall continue on a regular basis. Or, maybe not. We'll see.
