It all started on Tuesday night when my wife found out that her Aunt Brenda had passed away. The family wasn't really close to her because she married a black man and most of Stephanie's family is a bunch of bigot rednecks. I really can't stand that about them, but when you marry a person, you marry their family. Anyway, the Funeral was ( Read more... )

Well, our inspections have come and gone on our current house. The buyer really didn't have too many demands of us, which is really good. It shouldn't cost too much money to get them fixed. The only thing I worry about is their financing falling through. That would really suck considering that our new house should be a done deal by the end of ( Read more... )

Well, I got back from California on the evening of December 20th. I was coming home on the 21st, but I got a bad cold or flu and felt achy and stuff so I came home a day early. I might add that the plane ride home was a bitch and that the morons were staring at each other instead of loading luggage. We didn't take off from California til 30 ( Read more... )

Here I am, sitting in my new cubicle, in San Dimas, California. How did I get here? Well, sit back and I'll tell you the story ( Read more... )

We still haven't sold our house. We were told that somebody was going to put an offer in for it soon, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I figure it will be mid-2006 before we move, but I could be wrong ( Read more... )

Trip has really been a trip lately. He gets into everything still and it seems like each day he picks up something new. He occasionally bludgeons his brother with something, but I guess that's what big siblings do. I think he's starting to realize that it's wrong though, because sometimes he gets a look on his face that say's "Oh No". He also ( Read more... )

Well, a few days ago, Conner decided to be mobile. He does kinda an inchworm crawl around the room and has started getting into stuff. I caught him playing with wires for my alarm clock a couple of days ago. Trip loved wires too for some strange reason ( Read more... )

Wednesday night, the company that I work for, had a team building exercise out at Molly's Landing in Catoosa. I didn't really know what was going to happen, but I knew that the food was really expensive, so I went to check it out. When I got there, I found out that we were going to be a part of one of those interactive theater shows where they ( Read more... )

I know I'm a parent, and anybody who reads this that isn't a parent probably won't care or anything, but I went over to my mom's the other day. My son, Trip, had spent the night, the night before and apparently he learned a new word. He learned "Flower" and he says it really loud and it comes out "DOW-WUH!" It's the cutest thing ( Read more... )

Well, about a week ago, we got Conner moved into the bedroom with Trip. They each have their own baby beds and it's all good... EXCEPT...Trip likes to sleep in the dark and Conner likes a light on. Trying to coordinate this has been a great big mess. Most of the time we've been leaving the light on, since the baby seems to scream bloody murder ( Read more... )
