Recent conversation with Brenda:

me: I heard a song on the radio on the ride home today and found myself returning to the 70's.

Brenda: Like you ever left.

me: Be that as it may, I was bobbing my head to Journey's Lovin, Touchin', Squeezin'.

Brenda: And that's bad because...

me: Perhaps you didn't hear me - It was Journey! I'm a little upset about it. I may have to kick my own ass.

Brenda: I like Journey. My friends like Journey.

me: That's exactly my point. You and your friends view .38 Special, Air Supply, and Bad Company as if those guys rock.

Brenda: Air Supply doesn't rock but Bad Company was badass.

me: That's why you're not allowed to choose the radio station in the car.

You Make Life Worth Living

Recently, I attended a wedding for some close friends of mine. The reception featured a DJ who doubled as emcee announcing what was happening and what would happen next. After doing the stupid chicken dance and the hokey pokey, he tried to create a “feel good” moment for the newlyweds. Go »

The Long and Winding Road

I've led my life with few regrets but those few have been big ones. I've posted a bit about my divorce but not about the reasons behind it. I'm not going to now either but I will say that Betsy deserved better at that time. Go »

East Meets West

So, good friends of ours, Lauren's godparents, invited our family to join them for a birthday dinner at a local Japanese steakhouse, Sakura. I've always wanted to go to one of these but until last night never had the opportunity. The girls are finicky eaters so prospects looked pretty slim. Go »

I'm a Doctor, Not a Kitchen Appliance!

My toaster has a timer on it that let's you know when it's finished. It seems a little silly to add a timer beeping that's a redundant addition to the toast loudly popping up from the machine that means the same thing. So now, because the timer emits a sound eerily similar to an EKG indicating flatline, every time it goes off I'll say to Brenda, "He's bread, Jim." Go »
