The swing of things
Filed in blog, Sun, 10 Aug 2008, 10:04 pmTomorrow our little girl turns 1 month old. Wow. On one hand those days in the hospital feel like forever ago. I’ve been back at work for 3 weeks, so even my time at home feels like a distant memory. And yet, on the other, I can’t believe how fast everything has gone. Seriously, she’s [...]
Time sure does fly
Filed in blog, Tue, 29 Jul 2008, 11:17 pmHappy anniversary to… us!
That’s right, on this day way back in the year 2006 Lisa and I tied the knot. Last year at this time our first anniversary was a big deal and foremost in my thoughts. This year we had trouble even figuring out what we could do, and then delayed the dinner plans [...]
One last hurrah
Filed in blog, Fri, 13 Jun 2008, 4:35 pmWe’re taking advantage of a wedding this weekend and staying at a bed and breakfast. It’ll be the last getaway until parenthood destroys our souls fills our lives with joy…
Nothing big - we’re just heading out to “Western” New Jersey. But it’s an excuse to pamper ourselves one last time. Most importantly, it’s a time [...]
The tax man cometh
Filed in blog, Tue, 25 Mar 2008, 11:07 pmAfter doing our taxes last year, I was so excited by the big return (no doubt going to pay a bill) that it never occurred to me that I was ignoring all of the investments The Woman sold. So when I found some paperwork months later that pointed this out… well… let’s just say that [...]
In a nutshell
Filed in blog, Wed, 27 Feb 2008, 4:53 pmOf course you all read xkcd already, but I still felt the need to point out how awesomely the comic the other day described me:
The Woman either laughed or rolled her eyes at that one - probably a combination. But it’s not just me he’s describing - it’s our entire relationship:
Life of late
Filed in blog, Tue, 26 Feb 2008, 10:38 pmHmm, so, what’s been going on with me lately? I watched a lot of movies… We bought some appliances… I tried to rewire the lights and outlets in our bedroom… I’ve been busy at work getting our new facility ready… Oh, and we found out that the little bump in The Woman’s belly is a [...]
Bad timing indeed…
Filed in blog, Mon, 28 Jan 2008, 11:22 amI tend to come in later than most at work because I tend to work later than most. Unfortunately, since my schedule is a little different I am often at odds with that of other people. With regular frequency I would find the kitchen being cleaned when I was in dire need of my first [...]
Gratitude does not even begin to cover it…
Filed in blog, , 10:42 amThis weekend we had another bout of realization at just how freakin’ lucky we are. A big part of that has to do with, obviously, my game show winnings. We’ve been watching episodes of Millionaire regularly since I was on (largely to see what happened with the only contestant who went after me) and it’s [...]
Meet the new me… the same as the old me…
Filed in blog, Tue, 1 Jan 2008, 11:31 pmSupposedly I care about my looks, but my sheer laziness constantly interferes. That would explain why I get a haircut maybe twice a year and shave once or twice a week these days. At this point, my friends probably barely even notice when I show up looking shaggier or cleaner-cut than before because they can’t [...]
Hitchcock rocks my socks
Filed in blog, Mon, 31 Dec 2007, 8:21 pmNot to be outdone by SciFi’s Twilight Zone Marathon, HDNet Movies has been playing nothing but Hitchcock movies. What a frickin’ genius. I finally got to watch The Birds - even though the effects don’t quite hold up over time, that’s still one scary movie. For the best experience, make sure you have a parakeet [...]
