Chrissy and I really love our new iPhones, but we’re now fearful of their fragility. Don’t drop it! Don’t scratch the glass! We’ve read many iPhone horror stories online, so we wanted to buy protective cases. Chrissy did a little research, and found some really nice leather cases from Sena. ...

Fish died. To be specific, Aiden’s first pet (technically the second, after a miraculous color change), a fish named “Fish”, is once again dead. We’re not sure how it happened, but the story of how it came to be is one that is long and fraught with peril. I will continue.

My left front tire has had a steady leak in it for a while. I somehow got a roofing nail stuck in it. At one point, the Honda service center had patched it for me during an oil change, but it started losing air again once it started getting cold. I’ve been pretty good about putting air in it every day this winter (I...

I have a low-maintenance noggin, so I give up shaving and haircuts until the weather warms up. The extra hair keeps me toasty in the Winter! I went...

Those little GPS units that hang above the dashboard in your car can sure come in handy. I figured that we might need one when we went to Disney World next month, so we kept an eye out for deals. Luckily, the TomTom 125 went on sale for $98 (close-out price, down from $179), which was the lowest that I had ever seen one for. ...

Chrissy and I went to Chicago today to see Dirty Dancing at the Cadillac Palace Theater. I had never seen the actual movie (except for bits and pieces over the years). From what I can tell, the first Act is about a convoluted cover-up plan to enable an abortion, which eventually leads to statutory rape. This is supposed to be...
