So I am in an angry troll kind of mood.
 
Ethan had his second urodynamics test today, but I could not go because we had an emergency at work (it is 7:15pm as I write this…I am still at work…waiting for customer confirmation).  The Urodynamics test is by far the most invasive test ever conceived of [...]

Treat

 
Life can take you some unexpected places.  When I was a kid, I always dreamed of getting a house in my parents’ neighborhood when I grew up.  My sister always looked to more distant horizons.  She was the bold one who went to school out of state.  I was the one who went to Junior [...]

2/3 Speed

Yesterday afternoon we took Ethan to see Speed Racer.  What we saw of it, was visually stunning, literally.  I was on sensory overload.
 
Then suddenly, bam the movie stops, the lights come up and a siren goes off.  We had to evacuate the building.  It was very orderly, no trampling.  Suddenly we were in bright sunshine.
 
And [...]

The Hills Are Alive

So last night was my idea of a near perfect Friday Night.  Not that it was the greatest, but for what it was, it was perfect. 
 
Ethan had his piano recital last night, so I knocked off work early.  When I got home, he was busy doing Jedi business with the kids in the neighborhood.  [...]

Marital Counseling?

 
Lord it is hard to be humble, when you are perfect in every way…
 
Hmmmm…let’s say I “overheard” a couple arguing about housekeeping.  The husband, we will call Binh recognized that with his wife returning to full time employment, it might not be a bad idea to have a housecleaner come twice a month.  The wife, [...]

Noodle Salad

I want noodle salad.  Watch the clip and you will understand.
 
 
 
 
At my old church, I attended a Men’s retreat.  We were in small groups and the leader asked everyone to share the greatest moment of their lives.  Without exception, all of them said, the birth of their child.  That my friend is noodle salad.
 
Now don’t [...]

Mello

 
I love Saturdays, especially when there is no agenda.  I was a bum most of the morning except for the “procedure.”  We went to the mall for lunch.  I had bourbon chicken.  Then Jenn bought socks while I got Ethan a haircut at Cartoon Cuts.  I got to watch an episode of Fairly Odd Parents.
 
We [...]

Great Czar’s Ghost

Every once in a while I have an extremely vivid dream.  Last night was one of those nights. 
 
I was in the duplex my grandfather owned in the 70’s.  It was sold shortly after my grandmother died.  He lived another 20 years.
 
But in this dream, he was already dead.  The house however, was furnished just like it was in the [...]

Grateful?

During my never ending training session on Friday, I started playing with Google tools.  I found two that were kind of cool.  One was a search engine for just blogs.  The other was an RSS reader that allows you to read blogs across applications.
 
So while the boredom continued on the training front, I started searching [...]

Perfect Day

Some days are just perfect.  They are rare, but they do happen.
