Great Shows Insomniacs Should Not Watch


I hardly ever get a decent night's sleep. I am one of those people who find it impossible to sleep without the TV on.  When it comes to what to watch as an aid to get some shut-eye the formula is pretty simple for me, it has to be interesting enough for me to be engaged by not so interesting or thought-provoking that I can't drift away. Black Mirror is on the top of my list of shows I love but penetrate too deep into cerebrum and only add to my insomnia.  Now I just have to figure out when I can find time before midnight to get through the series.

THANKS SANDY! YOU HAVE CREATED RAMLO


Trapped in by Hurricane Sandy, my house eventually turned into Lord of the Flies, and the youngest was prepared for battle.  I was nervous trying to reacclimate RAMLO (Rambo reference) back into the general population known as preschool.

Quality Time with Sparrow Picking Peppers






 While we harvested way too late, Logan and I managed to pick some great peppers.  Next year we will take better care of the eggplants and tomatoes and make a huge Eggplant Parmesan feast.  Last night we made spicy cracked salt and pepper chicken

Burbs... NATGEO style




Noah: "Be careful dad , you're gonna get bit"  Me: "I'll be ok"  Noah: "But it wont be fair because you'll have Spidey super powers" 
The fact that we were taking a break from watching Spiderman when we saw this didnt help at all!

SHHHHH MUNCHKIN!


My wife and I go back and forth debating who our 3month old clings to the most. My wife says he goes through periods of being all about his DADDY! Little does she know I have a secret weapon!

Now I’m concerned that my secret weapon may not be much of a SECRET. Today I noticed the good people @ MUNCHKIN are advertising on their carrier packages a little fact that I already knew “Promotes Closeness and Bonding”. Hopefully my wife wont read the package.

Do cars have feelings too?


Some people say that cars act-up when you start talking about replacing them; implying that your car can hear you and actually has feelings. It is almost always said jokingly, but for a variety of reasons there probably is a logical correlation between the two events. If you are getting to the point where you are thinking of replacing your car you’ve probably dealt with small symptoms to the larger problem that reveals itself shortly after you start your search for a replacement.

None of that explains the events of last Friday. My wife and I were discussing our previous car, and the things we missed about it, as we drove up to Starbucks. As we were waiting on our frou-frou yuppified drinks a lady runs in telling us that she hit our car while pulling out of her parking spot. The lady was parked right next to us and managed to hit our front drivers side with her back passenger side, an awfully odd accident (right after reminiscing about our old car). Was our car warning us not to dote on an EX? Strange indeed!
