The past few weeks have been pretty nuts. With 40 percent of our team gone, work has been trying to say the least. With the holiday season and a 10-day trip to visit family in the Midwest, home life has been a bit scattered. Thursday afternoon, it all seemed to culminate in one of those …
36 has always been one of my favorite numbers. Admit it, you have favorite numbers, too. I’m not that much of a freak. But I hadn’t really given a good deal of thought to turning 36 years old until it was practically on top of me. And to be quite honest, it’s more than a …
Whenever we get a really cute picture of the monkey from day care, I dutifully extract it from the document it’s in, re-size it, and send it to Lovey for posting on her blog. Not today. Why? BECAUSE THIS IS THE CUTEST FREAKIN’ PHOTO EVER TAKEN! Sorry, Lovey. I couldn’t resist this one. Good lord, …
Last week was the first one back in my regular office after it underwent a much-needed and much-appreciated face-lift. I’ve yet to move everything back in, which meant it was the perfect time to take pictures. That way, I can remember how lovely it was before I junked it all up again. Seriously, though – …

All right. I admit it. I’m bad blogger. A very bad blogger. But I want to be better. So, I really will try to post more often. No promises, though. Hey, I’m a busy guy. We have a two year old kiddo, which can be like living with a menopausal rhino — watch out for …
134 As a 1930s husband, I amVery Superior Take the test! Thanks to Nina for pointing out this test, although I’m now wondering if I either a) am living in the wrong time or b) have something seriously wrong with me…
Of course I’m thrilled that the Monkey did her first “numero dos” in the potty on my watch this morning. However, she has also learned a new word today… Podcast. Yep, that’s my kiddo. =)
