The joys of being sick

Like the rest of the sane world, I do not enjoy being under the weather. Not only do you feel miserable while sick, but even simple tasks seem to take far more mental energy to accomplish. The last four to six weeks has seemed far longer than it has actually been. It all started with [...]

Hot Stuff Comin’ Through

I find it funny that with every year that I age, I worry a little less about my outward appearance. If you think about it, you will probably see that you are very much the same. I suppose the reason for this is that with each passing year, we become more set in our ways [...]

Why are you ignoring me on Facebook?

Between the people that I have met online and those that I have met in person, a small percentage of them have asked why I ignore then on Facebook. After giving the same explanation time and time again, I thought it would be worth explaining it one last time, here on my personal blog. There [...]

Huh, your gonna replace the door on your hotel room?

Put Cha’ Spurs On It!

In a previous post, I gave you little insight to the childish fun I have at my wife’s expense. That post was actually supposed to go in another direction, but since I was happy with the way it read, I left it as written. The purpose of this post is to tell you the story [...]

That length of hose costs how much!

On a cold January morning, I stepped out my front door and made my way down to my car. As usual, I attached the face plate on my stereo and started the vehicle. I gave the car a couple of minutes to warm up while I read a newly received email on my Blackberry. In [...]

Childish Fun at my Wife’s Expense

If you are a follower of mine on Twitter or a friend on Facebook, it would be of no surprise to learn that I like to have childish fun around my wife. At times it can be at her expense, but for the most part it makes her laugh. Admittedly, one of the main reasons [...]
