It's odd having my own house. Sometimes, I look around and can't believe it's our's. Not our parents, but our's. We're old enough to own a home. We're old enough to have kids. I am becoming more and more like my parents, and less and less like a child each year. It's hard to imagine... Continue Reading →
Here is what I remember from the first five years of my life: My dad's awesome hairstyle. It's hard to forget since he still has the same one to this day. My mom perpetually telling me to scrub my face. I broke out in a rash anytime I ate tomatoes. I still get a small... Continue Reading →
Last night I ran five miles. And I did 400 crunches. Plus I did two times my normal amount of reps of weights. And then, after all that, while walking through the kitchen to grab a glass of water, I saw Steve's discarded Time Magazine, lying face-up in the trash can with a cover that... Continue Reading →

We are, of course, making money, and probably not enough, but that isn't the reason we work. We work so we can have... Continue Reading →
My Nike + ipod sports kit that tracks my stats on my ipod while I work out. This could quite possibly be the greatest invention ever. Ever. This book has everything I would ever need to know in it. Everything. I have spent hours curled up with this book, and hope for many more hours... Continue Reading →
Usually married couples don't go on too many dates, but today Steve and I had a dual date. We went to a matinee movie, then tonight went out to dinner and to the Pete Yorn concert. I've never loved concerts. I have the CD already, what difference does it make to me? But Steve really... Continue Reading →
Driving to work today, I saw a few other people with their windows down. I always feel a connection with those drivers, because I know it means they also don't have air conditioning. There is no other explanation in 98º weather. I will let those drivers cut me off and I will smile because they're... Continue Reading →
What ever happened to cash?Remember this stuff? You used to receive it as a form of payment in birthday cards and after babysitting? Yeah, I used to love cash. I would make little envelopes and divide my meager earnings into them: presents, savings, my made-up club du jour's fund, etc. I saved fives and tens... Continue Reading →
Meet Tucker: Tucker is my (ok, our - whatever) 19-pound wriggly body of hair and tongue that most consider a dog. Sure, he looks like a dog, but he's more like a little human. He's like a ten month old child that understands certain words in conversation and is dying to interject, he just can't... Continue Reading →
