![]() ![]() Even though Ron Swanson once said “Never half-a** two things - whole-a** one thing,” Offerman proved he could master comedy, song and storytelling in one hilarious package. Offerman’s “All Rise” was a highly entertaining, yet beautifully simple experience. Offerman can definitely be described as a more jovial version of his iconic “Parks and Recreation” character - opinionated, to-the point and well-spoken. No matter what his topic was, his jokes landed effortlessly, eliciting laugh after laugh from the audience. A humorous and rousing set of literal and figurative sojourns as well as a mission statement about comprehending, protecting, and truly experiencing the outdoors, fueled by a conversation with Wendell Berry that inspired three journeys I undertook in 20. His performance was just so natural and very conversational in nature, seeming as though he was simply having a chat with his buddies. While still uproariously funny, Offerman’s set was almost relaxing at parts. ![]() You will find me draped in a magnificent squirrel blouse, hand-crafted by Fort Lonesome of Austin, Texas. ![]() An evening of deliberative talking and light dance that will compel you to chuckle whilst enjoining you to brandish a better side of humanity than the one to which we have grown accustomed. ![]()

Or when I'd needed a date to homecoming in 10th grade, and Erin told me she was it. Like when Julian Thick had offered me half his sandwich, back in grade school, after noticing I didn't have any food. Just not as happy as he could be with me. I know he'll be happy with Erin, just not. ![]() He's gone and gotten engaged to his high-school sweetheart - which means I have to grin and bear it, while pretending to be the happy, supportive best man, while he prepares to commit his life to a woman I can't even fault.

Therefore, piggy-backing off of the work I did at the Writing Institute when I took Lucy’s Class, I decided to go through Those Shoes, post-its and pen in-hand, so as to pick out the craft moves on every single page. Those Shoes, like When It’s the Last Day of School, is very well-written. Therefore, I’ve decided that Those Shoes is going to become one of my first read alouds of this-coming school year, but not just because of its important message. To that end, it’s a story that nearly all children can relate to, especially in these days of high food prices and surging fuel costs. Since I don’t like to give away endings, let’s just say it’s exceedingly touching. ![]() The catch? His grandmother cannot afford to buy him a new pair of those shoes.
