One more from the “I Love Being A Dad” Files…

Yesterday I posted this, because my daughter made me laugh so hard I almost did a spit-take. 

I had to follow that up with this one, though, because my son is a fruit-loop. 

I called home.  He answers the phone, completely out of breath.

Me:  Hey buddy!  What are you up to?

Max: Well, (*pant – pant*)  I took off my shirt, and I’m running around and around the house (*pant – pant*), and then I’m doing jumping exercises and stuff (*pant – pant*), and then I’m sticking my head in this bowl of water that I filled up (*pant – pant*), and holding it under there as long as I can (*pant – pant*), and then I do it all again!

At that point, I tried to ask him for a few details, but I just couldn’t because I was laughing so hard.  I mean… WHAT?!

Sometimes I think if the world were run by 10-year-old boys, things would be a LOT simpler.  And more fun.

PLAYS!

Tonight, we start previews for the beautiful show While We Were Bowling at the Williamston Theatre.  It’s a gorgeous script, full of the funny and the heartbreaking.  Lots of laughs, drama, and moments that make you a little weepy with joy.  Love that kinda play!  Very excited for our audiences to see it!    Check out the commercial for it here!

And I’m knee deep in rehearsals for Ernie, at the City Theatre in Detroit.  That’s a ton of fun, too – a challenge in a whole different way.  The production team on it is fabulous, I’m having a great time.  

Overall, I’m feeling like a pretty lucky guy today!  🙂
