This is a list of posts published in May 2008.
As we bring this busy month to a close, it’s only fitting that I get to shutter the Spring and welcome the summer months with a tribute to my blossoming flower, Aria Leigh.
Today, our little princess leaps beyond her toddler years and forges a path into little girlhood as she turns 3 years old. Now, [...]

There’s no place like home. (Click) There’s no place like home. (Click) There’s no place like home. (Click).
Damn, I’m still here… and looking awfully ridiculous in these ruby red slippers.
Well, that does it. Another season done. Another series of puzzles to ponder in the agonizing nine-month wait until Season 5 starts up. When next we [...]

One thing that makes me sad today… Old Man Indy.
Over the holiday weekend, I had the opportunity to take in the latest Indy flick – Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The screening came midway through the super-sized holiday weekend and just at the moment that the nagging nasal drip I had [...]

One thing that I love today… the last four words spoken in Iron Man.

This time of year is always bittersweet. As our favorite shows come to an end, we look ahead to the summer and see nothing but a vacant wasteland – the color of television tuned to a dead channel. At the same token, we see bright sunny days meaning we can actually get our collective asses [...]

Starting in April, we encounter our yellow lab Abby’s birthday. That leads quickly to Colin’s birthday on May 5th which is immediately followed by Mother’s Day where we try to [...]

What kid hasn’t heard the following when pestering their Mom or Dad on their respective holidays of why there isn’t a “Kid’s Day”?

I think I’m coming down with Cabin Fever.
It’s episodes like last night mythology heavy installment, Cabin Fever, that prove how intricately plotted and dramatically dense this show can be. This is why I watch the show. While getting answers can be rewarding, sometimes it’s more fun to keep tunneling down the rabbit’s hole. As long [...]

Has it really been half a decade since Andi and I took the Nestea plunge into parenthood?
Today, my little man Colin, turns 5 years old. The Cinco de Mayo nino was born on May 5, 2003. It’s true what they say - you remember every waking moment of that day - and of course, every [...]
