So. Sara's blog "We Have the Best Job Ever" pretty much blows my mind. I read it almost every day and wish that I could write like she does about the hilariously epic things that go down at FLOCK every week. And I got thinking... We do so many funny, weird, completely ridiculous things, but we can also get pretty deep (sometimes.... mostly depending on the mood Brian and Joe are in). So I decided I would start this blog to share some of the Flock funnies, but also some of the amazing life lessons I pick up from hanging out at St. Michael's so much...
Well, let's start with AP Flock from Wednesday night. Let's just say that sometimes the conversation is better when the boys are off for a quick trip to Game Stop buying Call of Duty: Black Ops... :] We started off with a topic that Sara, Aaron, and I talked a little bit about last week: True masculinity and femininity. Holy shnikeys. Can you say intense?? We had kind of planned on starting with that topic, then maybe moving on to some articles Sara printed out for us... But we determined that the topic was a little deeper than we thought. Our 90 minute conversation basically only established two things: Men are protectors and givers, and women are sensitive and receivers. It was a great conversation and we really couldn't even come up with a clear definition at all. We did come up with a pretty good one for love: selflessly putting someone else above yourself and getting them to heaven. I'd say it was some pretty good, stimulating conversation. Then Aaron and Brian somehow got into a serious debate about building a mosque in NYC, racism in airports, and who knows what else... Overall, definitely a productive, eye-opening night.
Oh the things you learn from Flock... :]
