Day 9: Old folks play Pokemon, Young folks eat french fries and milkshakes for dinner

I managed to take a photo with all three of my kids making weird faces... yep, that's why they love to be in photos. This was, despite all appearances, in the midst a happy moment right after Owen did a Ukulele performance with his cousin and the rest of his ukulele class in front of a restaurant filled with joyous adoring fans (their parents).

This was just highlite number two of my evening. First I saw an elderly couple walking down the sidewalk in 105 degree heat and then suddenly, iPhones in hand, make a b-line to the other side of the street then furiously flick their phone screens for a solid 2 minutes each. I really wished I had recorded the incident, because the moment was so perfect that it seemed staged. I guess there is no age limit on who can enjoy Pokemon Go.

COnfession time: I took a spoon of each of my kids's (and wife's) milkshakes. I did. I feel shame. Not the healthiest of eating days today in general, actually.

Who am I kidding, I did horrible on diet today. I didn't do social media (was too busy doing life... and having actual fun). I did go for a good walk and even jammed out on my ukulele a little.

I can't wait to tell you about some of the changes I've been noticing with these lifestyle modifications though! It'll have to wait for the weekend. Another early day tomorrow (and then I have 1 early surgery on Saturday morning but should be home before lunch that day.)

If you still don't understand what the heck I'm doing here with this blog or what the consumerism detox is, please leave me a post in the comment section below. I am not sure if I've explained this well since I've had so many people texting me and emailing me about what the heck I'm doing here.


For bonus points, who can tell me what movie the above meme was taken from?
