Sometimes I feel like I need to sit down and write something on here again and I get an idea. I ponder it, come up with clever statements about it, form opinions and take in the opinions of others. I toss the idea around in my head over and over again until finally, I decide […]
Yeah, it’s four in the morning and I’m up. I have to leave for work in two hours. I haven’t been to sleep. At all. It’s gonna be a great day. I have no reason or excuse for it. Things are going pretty damn well. I’m not feeling depressed. Things with Denise are amazing and […]
This is for everyone, but for those of you that started out with me 3 years ago, this will hold a special place in your heart. The posts about my father used to be cult favorites and many of you asked for more. I don’t live there anymore, so the stories are harder to find. […]
Saturday. Day off. Day of rest. I ignored my therapist and slept til 1:00 today. To all the parents and mom and dad bloggers out there that read, it was AWESOME! You’re welcome. My brilliant idea for the weekend was to write 3 or 4 posts and save them in draft so I’d have some […]
I made yet another friend on Twitter today, and ordinarily I’d wait to do another “blogger love” post to give props to her but our conversation there was relevant to today’s post, so I’ll go ahead and introduce @qwertygirl now.

Yes, I’m being a thief at the moment. Well, not really because I’m giving him full credit, but he has clearly had experience with my family, and my dad in particular.

I saw it, every one of you that read my post the other day saw it, Emo-Boy cashier at the convenience store saw it . . . everyone but my father saw it. My mother’s dance of happiness in the kitchen the other night was not in vain. Friday morning they awoke to a wet […]
I teased you just a bit with a hint of what was to come but unfortunately the story seems to have come to a stall. The beginning of it is funny, and the ending has some great potential as well, it’s just . . . well, it’s dad. You see, I was on the back […]
So this was a total experiment and I’m pretty sure it sucked, but I had to take a stab at it. Either because I’m lazy and didn’t want to type, or I totally had nothing, I decided to make my post on video today. Since so many of you have expressed your enjoyment of my […]
I seriously considered not writing this post at all because you have to be growing weary of the “dad” stories, so I asked some of my regulars if they were getting tired of it. The responses I got were positive so I decided to go for it. My favorite response was from Tom (AKA: Zippy […]
