This is it, surgery week. Each of Ethan’s surgeries has come with its challenges. This time it is that he has to fast for 4 days. He can have liquids, but I cannot imagine that making much of a difference.
Over the weekend, we took him to Hershey Park. Today Jenn is taking him to our [...]

Yesterday, I met with a friend that I had not spoken to because of an argument. He had told me over a year ago that he was sorry, but I was not ready to hear it. I probably “accepted” his apology at the time. But my hope was that I would [...]

So tomorrow is the day I am meeting with an old friend who was indirectly responsible for really hurting my wife. When I asked for the meeting, I was not sure what I would say. Funny thing. The act of asking for the meeting seems to have released a lot of the anger I felt. [...]

I could never answer the question: What do you want to be when you grow up?
I had two reoccurring nightmares as a child.
Jesus is tied to the railroad tracks and I am trying to untie him before the train rolls over him.
Satan is in the sewer drain and drags me by the ankles to hell.

Who said the end of the world would not be fun.
According to people at my parents’ church, Barack Obama is the anti-Christ. Thank goodness! All of the other anti-Christs from my childhood were so mean. Henry Kissinger was kind of grumpy. Nixon was too evil. Clinton was too messy (especially on blue dresses). Michael Jackson [...]

So the past couple of nights, I have been watching the history channel. They have had a cheesy documentary on the Seven Deadly Sins. I found it all very interesting until they did the show on Sloth. Then I started feeling a little uncomfortable.
Now I have always thought of sloth as being lazy, not doing [...]

I am working this week. The staff for the most part is out. We are suppose to release a patch by tomorrow. But without a staff, I am the lone ranger. Gawd help us.

First, let me just say I love the internet. Last night on the way home, I was listening to NPR as usually. But I was in a funk because of the day before, so I switched to a local rock station. There was a song with a driving beat (I had heard it once or [...]

It is scary how paralyzed you can be when depression has you in its grip. I have been mostly off the radar the last week or so because it was all I could do to just function at work and home. At last, the cloud has lifted.

I have no profound insights. Our Thanksgiving was OK. We have no family in the area, so it was just the three of us. We went to Clyde’s for lunch and saw the movie Madagascar 2.
Today we are having dinner with our friends. We will likely play Canasta late into the night.
About me: I am [...]
