My daughter doesn’t want me to blog

My daughter doesn’t want me to blog

Well crap. I got started on the whole big recap story and then The Girl decided to start fussing and crying. I’ve had to go in her room four times in the past hour, so tonight’s not looking so good for long-form writing either. Besides, I’m not really in the mood to be witty or [...]

Ha, just kidding

Ha, just kidding

Hitting the links

The Boy becomes obsessed with random things from time to time. First it was presidents, then maps, then Super Monkey Ball, then Paper Mario, then crossword puzzles, then Zelda. Now he’s set his sights firmly on golf. I don’t know why golf has caught his fancy. I don’t play golf. We don’t live next to [...]

Not all parties need dancing

A most unlaborious day

A most unlaborious day

I don’t know any decent Labor Day jokes, so I’ll refrain from trying to make one up. Just insert whatever you can come up with on your own here. This wasn’t supposed to be a three-day weekend for The Wife and I, but it became one for me since The Girl’s daycare was closed today. [...]
