Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life [...]
Nine months have come and gone in the blink of an eye. Our brand new addition has become one big, sturdy, rolly-polly bundle of sweetness. She seems to come up with some new antics that keep the grownups around her entertained and enthralled.
Recently, the little baby learned how to make smooching noises, not unlike the [...]
This past week in the office has been a harrowing one. Much of this has to do with the fact that I will be away on business the coming Monday and Tuesday which means stuffing as much into the week as possible. The other reason is due to communicating (or trying to) with various executives [...]
Ten short years ago, on June 13th 1998, my wife and I wed. There were so many people back then that thought we wouldn’t make it. They figured she would wise up to the fact that she was marrying a guy six years her senior with two children and one divorce already clouding his vision.

I took the girls to the mall this morning. While strolling along my three year old asks, “Was that a boy or a girl?” while gesturing toward a guy walking by.
I barely caught this guy in my periphery but it was enough to be relatively certain he was a he. “That’s a boy”
Girl: But he has a necklace on
Dad: Some men were necklaces
Girl: Daddy! That is silly. Boys don’t wear necklaces!
Dad: Sure they can. I don’t, but some boys do.
Girl: Oh (while giggling) they need to be a real boy like you

This looks like fun -Have you ever wanted to print a comic book hero right from your PC? Me either, until I saw this link from ParentHacks where you can do just that. Printable, foldable comic book characters and super heroes.
Well, well, well! -My wife and I were chatting about a friend who was having a drinking water well drilled on his property.
"They're down to around 200 feet now." I said.

Yeah, right there. :)
