I blame Spinal Tap for my recent illness. Look at their new album’s title! Back from the Dead. They’re a safer scapegoat than my wife who probably gave me her current cold/sinus infection. Somara started coming down with a different … Continue reading →

If my sleep hygiene wasn’t so knocked out of whack, I would’ve gotten the news out before passing out in the living room to WALL-E (had to complete our little Pixar film festival). Now I don’t feel bad about it … Continue reading →

Woo hoo! My second trip to the dentist this year was even better than the previous one. I did a chart last time to give a comparison on how much improvement my gums have made since 2006 (really bad) to … Continue reading →

She’s now lucky number seven which is a pretty groovy age as a kid. First grade is over (or will soon be) and you’ve gotten a pretty solid taste for grade school. I cannot remember if Summer vacation has started … Continue reading →

I was never a fan of Wilco, more of an enemy of their fans due to an incident at the Sheryl Crow concert in 1997. Yeah I know, maybe the four assholes obstructing everyone else’s view were doing us a … Continue reading →

A few already know since Friday night when I made the phone calls and/or spotted my Facebook wall (or is it a banner?) but I still want to write about it here. This week, my co-worker Eli accepted a position … Continue reading →

I was so overwhelmed over the birthday of Jane Wiedlin that totally forgot about their wedding day. Married for 14 years which is pretty groovy. Quite a shindig too with the best man wearing his official UK Army kilt uniform. … Continue reading →

Again, I should work in the financial sector. I’d be rolling in taxpayer dough for getting only one out of four right on the semi-finals. Now I have to cheer for the West in the Stanley Cup yet again because … Continue reading →

Totally spaced on the first two which happened over the weekend. I could blame the excitement and hype dealing with the upcoming Star Trek movie (no comment yet, planning my review). Kris was first. A great friend and co-worker since … Continue reading →

Each one of those messages are 20 cents a piece on my AT&T Wireless bill. I understand the need to communicate discreetly without it being a phone call from time to time, but an e-mail or better yet the new, … Continue reading →

Yesterday I was so wrapped up in me, me, me, Grackl, me, me and Spinal Tap that I completely spaced on my best friend’s birthday (and you know I have more than one since I treat the adjective “best” as … Continue reading →

…with the car. Turns out I did receive a silver lining, after spending $200. John, the mechanic who worked on my VW discovered the culprit on the alarm system. I suspected it wouldn’t be anything as easy (or cheap) like … Continue reading →

…my VW Golf would’ve been shot and put out of its misery a few years ago. Today’s latest adventure with the car involved it setting off the alarm indefinitely which also disables the ignition until it’s reset. The hard part … Continue reading →
