There are two types of people in this world: 1. People who forget things. 2. People who think they don’t forget things… but just forgot that they do. I, for one, like to stay humble… so I forget things constantly just to keep myself grounded. When I was young you couldn’t tell me anything. See, … Continue reading Forget Me Not

Sneezy
There are some things about me you might not know.And then there are things you absolutely know… whether you wanted to or not. 1 example I am a loud sneezer. Not “oh, excuse me” loud.Not “polite tissue dab” loud. I’m talking:sonic boom meets gunshot meets small controlled explosion. And just when you think it’s over……it’s … Continue reading Sneezy
Talking in Your Sleep
Recently we made the bold, financially responsible, wildly unexciting decision to switch from Amazon Music to Spotify. Why? Because I operate on a highly sophisticated household budgeting system known as:“Whichever one is cheaper right now wins.” Turns out Spotify is cheaper.WHO KNEW? My wife knew.Which is why we switched. So now I’ve been riding shotgun … Continue reading Talking in Your Sleep
We All Had Heroes.
I certainly had one. To this day – I still admire him. And I use the term “him” oddly, because I know there is no real “him”. He wasn’t real. But the idea of “him” was always real. And yes, I still admire him. Nothing ever got him down. Nothing bothered him. Any bad situation … Continue reading We All Had Heroes.
It’s a New Season
I do enjoy when a new season is upon us. There’s something about that first stretch of warm spring days. Not just one teaser day in March where everyone wears shorts and then it snows the next morning. No. That is some top shelf BS right there. I’m talking about that string of nice days … Continue reading It’s a New Season
Life Is Better Along the Edges
I’m a simple man. I like simple things. Take Macaroni and Cheese. Most people want that soft, gooey center. The creamy middle. The Instagram portion. Not me. Give me the edges. The crisp parts.The corners.The slightly over-baked, maybe-a-little-too-brown, definitely-not-going-on-the-cookbook-cover edges. Some people call them burnt. I call them fully committed to being cooked. Maybe even … Continue reading Life Is Better Along the Edges
Now What…
Here it is. March. Early March.The days are getting longer.The sun’s hanging around a little later.There’s that one guy wearing shorts when it’s still 42 degrees. Yes, that’s me. Stupid groundhog. You already know how I feel about that furry little meteorologist from Punxsutawney. Don’t get me started. Because while everyone else is celebrating “spring … Continue reading Now What…
On A Roll
Oh, I do enjoy a good tuna fish sandwich.On a roll.On bread.White bread. Wheat bread. Makes no difference.Heck, balance it gently in a scoop on top of a salad and call it “low carb” if that makes you feel responsible. But let’s be honest.It’s a sandwich. Not a wrap.That’s its destiny. And yes…I prefer make … Continue reading On A Roll
Big Big Difference
There are literally dozens of readers of my blog.Dozens. And I appreciate every single one of you. As a loyal reader, you already know a few things about me: I’m a Girl-Dad. I’m a grown-ass man. I know absolutely nothing about women. Now before you nod in agreement — I have learned things about women. … Continue reading Big Big Difference
The Little Kernal That Could NOT – redone
So … (Yeah. I did it again. And yes — I know it drives some of you crazy when I start a post like that. You’re welcome.) I’m standing in the kitchen.Pajama pants.One sock.No plan for the evening other than carbs. The popcorn machine is whirring like it’s powering a small village.We’ve got one of … Continue reading The Little Kernal That Could NOT – redone
