Some days I just get so choked up about my son. I see how happy he is, running around and playing, making his noises that annoy us so damned much. He has no idea what his life is going to be like when he’s older. I can see it spread out like a movie. He [...]

Well, it’s been an interesting week or two, for me at least.
A tree in front of our house gave up the ghost in a recent thunder/wind storm. We had some really high winds with this storm, and when I came home for lunch, half of this tree was sitting in my driveway, having been blown [...]

Ash posted on No Place Like Home about my little oopsie this week. The short story is that I went in to work on Monday when I had the day off. I didn’t realize it until I pulled into the deserted parking lot. I was not looking forward to going in on Monday anyway because [...]

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 [...]

This is the week Ash’s mom is visiting. She’s here for the whole week! Saturday afternoon, I went to the Dallas-Ft. Worth airport to pick her up. I was able to take a new route, since the George Bush Turnpike (yes, they named a road after him before he even died, the dad that is) [...]

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 [...]

We had our meeting with the school Wednesday afternoon. Only the principal was there, because all the teachers in Morgan’s class have been suspended and are on administrative leave. Ash had the tape recorder and decided not to turn it on after the first few minutes of the meeting.
The principal told us that she [...]

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 [...]

That’s what Morgan was saying for a couple of days after we went to the annual Plano Balloon Festival. He really loved it, and was eagerly anticipating it (translation: he bugged the hell out of us asking for hot air balloons every day for two or three days, every half hour to hour, nonstop…).
We actually [...]
