Chrissy took a year off from work so that she could stay home with Aiden. She had planned to go back to work next August after this next summer vacation. However, the substitute who took over her class for the year also got pregnant, so Chrissy will be returning early in order to cover her sub’s maternity leave. This sort of...

It was a really nice day outside, so we took a naked Aiden to the local Dairy Queen in Highland. He wasn’t entirely naked; he was wearing a diaper. But that is about as naked as he has ever been outside of the bath tub. Normally, he’s all dressed up in a cute little Pooh Bear outfit when he leaves the house. Then again,...

I have been anxiously anticipating the release of the Shivering Isles, the new expansion pack for Oblivion from Bethesda Softworks. It took a few weeks to find a copy, but I snatched one up as soon as I could. The problem is that it’s difficult to find time to play you’re working full time and then updating the kitchen...

This was enough to get him to any point in his little universe, the living room floor. It was at this point that Chrissy and I decided to...

I’m starting to see a lot of Uranium news now. The spot price for Uranium hit $100 per pound, which is significant — it’s a psychological barrier that traders have been waiting for. We expect to see the price go to $125 or $140 per pound by the end of the year, but the $100 mark made the news and now more people...

Chrissy bought another ceiling fixture today, the same kind that we got before. It would have been great if the last one hadn’t crashed to the floor into a million sharp, tiny pieces. This time, however, I would be installing the new light with toggle bolts, which would insure that it would stay put for the indefinite...
