I've recently accepted my call to serve as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the Belgium Brussels / Netherlands Mission. I'll learn Dutch, and I enter the Missionary Training Center (MTC) on March 15, 2006. Any devoted Pixar fan will recognize that date as the 1 year anniversary of the Incredibles' DVD release. I don't mean to divert the attention of the importance of missionary service to a "worldly" concern like a movie, because missionary service is a monumental and sacred endeavor to the lives of any and all Latter-Day Saint young men, women, and senior couples who accept mission calls in the church. But, you've got to admit, of all the days for the world's number one Pixar fan to enter the MTC, that's a wicked-cool cooincidence. It's really sweet that two very important days can share the same calendar space . . . it makes it easier for me (a male) to remember the dates, not that I'd ever forget either of them. Unfortunately, the activities surrounding the mission will prevent me from watching the movie on the 15th, so I'll be celebrating a day early. So anyway, have a most marvelous Incredibles anniversary celebration. Think of me.
