Today is Ash and my anniversary. We’ve been married for 12 years, and together for 13. We were living together in New Hampshire at the time. I remember how beautiful Ash looked, and how nervous I was on our wedding day. I also remember how happy I was.
Ash,
I love you so much. Thank you for [...]

I admit it. Actually, it would be hard to hide it. I also promised Ash I would post about it. My online crack of choice is Neverwinter Nights. This game is actually pretty retro. A new version is supposed to be coming out, but I’m not sure if it will be there for Macs at [...]

Yesterday, I took Morgan out for Halloween. Our apartment complex sent around some signs to put on doors if we were planning to hand out candy on Halloween. We put ours out, as well as a sign at the bottom of the stairs letting kids know that it would be worth their while to go [...]

Well, today one of my nightmares for Morgan almost came true. At 2:40 p.m. today, I got a call at work from a Plano policeman asking if I knew where my son was. He gets out of school at 2:30 p.m. I told him as far as I knew, he was at school. He then [...]

What a horrible week! I’ve been just blown away mentally by the horrible events happening a few hours drive away in New Orleans. I’m just so sorry for the poor people whose lives have been ended or disrupted by Hurricane Katrina. Many from Louisiana are coming here to the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex seeking refuge. We [...]

Morgan likes to look at pictures of me from the past when I had a buzz cut. He specifically asks for “Picture. Hair’s all gone?” I know he’s asking to see my driver’s license picture when he asks for this. I don’t have it any more, because I got a new driver’s license and my [...]

Well, Morgan’s Inflatable Insanity visit was Saturday instead of Sunday this week. He’s missed a few because he was very naughty and naughty boys don’t get to go to Inflatable Insanity. This week he was extra good.
We got there a little late, and this time Ash came with us. We were going to do the [...]

Last week I learned something new about Ash. She’s would make a good piggybank robber.
The other day, I saw a commercial from Wells Fargo about a woman to who put IOUs in her daughter’s piggy bank. I’ve seen it before, but this time, I thought of something.
I said “How does she get the money [...]

Ash got me a pair of Moleskine notebooks for my birthday. She got them after my birthday, but still they were my present. For those of you who know me well, you will know that I love stationery. I love paper in most of its forms. I collect business and calling cards, for example. I [...]

Here’s a picture of our refrigerator. Ash thinks she’s funny.
There is a picture of me very drunk at the top, right above the whiteboard pen.
Next to that is the wedding picture of the daughter of Ash’s best friend.
To the right of the whiteboard is Morgan and his Kindergarden teacher on the last day of school.
Near [...]
