jiggity jig.

my brother-in-law, kit, hipped me to one of the most recent "where the hell is matt?" videos.  i'm sure many of you have seen matt in action before, but as i watched this tonight, my heart started to feel things and i almost shed a tear.  i guess it made me realize that we silly humans have far more in common than we realize.  i think it's simple moments like these when The Man Upstairs looks downward at us all and smiles.



and i hope my husband's teammates don't see this next clip and give him a swirly or something equally harsh, but i thought it funny that matthew, while dressed for rugby, a sport of brute-like masculinity, starts channeling a light-hearted michael flatley.

i do love him and his legs in those socks. i do. xo.

What a surprising and crazy emotion I also felt when watching that. Seeing people all over the world smile and dance was great. Makes you think this crazy world we live in isn't so bad.
