7 months, 10 days old

“adada. ahhhhh. da…. DA! adada. ahhhhbuhbuhBOW. adada.” These are the sounds that drift through our family room early Saturday morning, where Erin is playing in her exersaucer, slobbering over each and every bit of plasticy goodness. As I spin around in my chair to check her she’ll stop her chattering and slobbering and return my […]

Ramblin’ Man

29. Not as traumatic as some made me believe. Not like turning 20. 20 sucked. No longer a teenager. Not quite an adult. 20 was limbo. Younger kids saw you as an adult. Older kids saw you as a kid. 20 sucked. 29 has the whole stigma of being THE FINAL YEAR – THE END. […]

(Shouldn’t the plural of “spouse” be “spice”?) I want to tell you about the woman I married. Because it’s not […]

15 Minutes

You know how they say everyone eventually gets their 15 minutes of fame? Today I got the distinct impression that I already had mine. As I was sitting in the kitchen today at work, the conversation turned to how I used to design movie posters. “Yeah man, like he made the poster for Notting Hill.” […]

The Exersaucer Tale

I bought an “exersaucer” yesterday. I’d like to say that it was one of those well thought-out, planned, strategized for purchases that parents make for their children. You know, like a crib or their first car. Instead, it was one of those “Oh poop. Erin doesn’t fit in her swing or bouncer seat anymore! What […]

Whoa Nelly!

“Life moves pretty fast. You don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” –Ferris Bueller I certainly feel as though I’ve been missing life lately. I just returned from a business trip to Florida and my hectic work schedule I’ve been keeping is finally slowing down. It really hit me […]
