My wife and I had a couple of students over for dinner on Monday night. It was fun to sit-down, talk, and laugh for a couple of hours. During this time I remembered some truths about teenagers:
- Teenagers are storytellers. They like recounting stories from their lives, no matter how seemingly insignificant it might be. I said this and he said that and I can’t believe he did this…
- Teenagers love inside jokes. They love whatever makes them an “insider”– their own language, their own jokes, their own culture.
- Teenagers have lots of energy. They were with us for 2-hours– and I was wiped! Those girls made me laugh, think, and try to keep up with the intensity and insanity that is “a teenager”.
So fun! and I totally remember these things being true about myself when I was in high school.
Josh,
Any chance you would consider turning your RSS feed on to full posts instead of partial? I’d love to read your stuff all the way through in Outlook instead of having to jump on the site.
You are a total PRO, man! Keep going!

Thanks for the encouragement! And the full RSS feed is on!
