Ice Cream Social!

Fact #1:

I live in an apartment building.

Fact #2:

My apartment building has a building manager.

Fact #3:

Her name is Tammy.

Fact #4:

She. Is. Awesome.

Last Sunday she hosted a meeting where heaven reached earth. In the form of ice cream.

(Plain English: She hosted an ice cream social for our building.)

Fact #6:

It. Was. Awesome.

Right after the social I went to the Men of Glory meeting and received my spiritual high for the week.

Perhaps it was two great events happening after each other that will forgive the formulating of this philosophy.

(You could call it “Joshy’s Philosophy” but I wouldn’t recommend it.)

Instead:

Hey, there’s a reason there are only two things in a universe that are never satisfied: the eyes of a man and the stomach of a teenage boy.

(That’s my rendering of Proverbs 27:20.)

Fact #7:

Notice anything strange about Fact #5?
