Once again, it’s been way too long between posts. There so many things I could tell you about – my car getting crunched by a distracted driver, my brother deciding to move in for the summer, having (excuse me, getting) to go to a dance recital for The Wife’s middle-aged dance class, etc… All of [...]
Okay, I’m not trying to sound like an old coot here, but I’m amazed at how much things have changed since I was a kid. Take for example my current situation – as I write this, I’m sitting in the waiting room of my local car dealership using their wireless network while I wait for [...]
I hadn’t really intended for this to turn into a once a week sort of thing, but that seems to be the pattern so far. I guess I need to make more of an effort. Of course, I’m not charging you people anything (yet), so I don’t really feel too much of an obligation. Anyhoo, [...]

The Boy, The Wife and I all had our fill of producing incredible amounts of snot [...]
The Wife was itching to finish painting the walls in our extra bedroom (which we are now referring to as “the baby’s room”, even though there is no baby), so I volunteered to take The Boy out and about. It was a mixture of about 50% trying to be helpful and 50% cabin fever from [...]
I failed to mention the enormous indignity heaped upon me when I dropped The Boy off at school after his dental appointment the other day. It’s a shining example of how no matter how good of a father you are, 99% of women you don’t know assume you’re a deadbeat.
The Boy had his first trip to the dentist’s office yesterday and due to my flexible work schedule, I was elected to take him. After years of dreading dental appointments of my own, it was a unique and odd sensation to be sweating out someone else’s. My fears were unfounded though, as The Boy pulled [...]
