Feeling  todayBrand new kitten! Brand new kitten! (Changed 2-15-06) Thursday, October 28, 2004
WOBBLEWOBBLEWOBBLE Weebles are fun. I'm sure you all remember Weebles. They used to be these little white, egg-shaped things with generically drawn faces on them. Well, they're back, and better than ever. They're no longer white, egg-shaped things. Now they're molded plastic, with arms and faces and stuff. They've even made vehicles and playsets for them. The nubbins love them. They've got a slide in their playroom. It's big enough for them to go down without getting hurt. Well, Uncle Chris introduced the Weebles to the slide. Of course, I'm not quite sure who's more entertained by sending the Weebles down the slide, me or the boys. Oh yeah, this reminds me of a joke: A bunch of cows, both male and female, are out standing in a field. Suddenly, these gigantic gusts of wind come along. The females are all knocked down and scattered across the field. But the males are just standing there, rocking back and forth. When the wind finally dies down, one of the females goes over to the males. "What gives?" she asks. "We're scattered everywhere, but you're just standing here, rocking back and forth. Why didn't you fall?" "Well, it should be obvious," replies one. "We bulls wobble, but we don't fall down." You may commence with the groaning now. :) Wednesday, October 27, 2004
This is a picture of Sydney from Labor Day weekend. Ain't she cute? She's getting big too. My sister took her for her 2 month check up the other day. She's up to 11lbs. Tuesday, October 26, 2004
A REVELATION I've lived in my apartment, on my own, for 4 years now. Just me, myself and I. Until recently, the past several weeks at the minimum, if not longer, that's been fine. But lately I've been feeling kind of weird in my apartment, and I finally figured out what it is. When I am the only person in the apartment, when I'm by myself, it feels empty. It's lonely in there. I've only spent a double handful of weeks down in Columbus, in the new condo. But when I'm there, it feels more like home than my own apartment does. I guess it's true what they say after all, about home and the location of you heart. (Love you, cute stuff.) Thursday, October 21, 2004
PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT!!! I found the perfect Halloween costume. Not for me. For my fiance. Go check it out here. Heeeeeeeeehehehehehehehe!!!! Sunday, October 17, 2004
BIG MEANIE My fiance was being rather mean to me on Saturday. She bought her wedding dress and won't let me see it. She carried this big, white bag inside the house and wouldn't let me look inside. She basically kept taunting me. Well, all I have to say to her is: :P Thhhhhhhhhhhhhpppppppppppppppttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!! Friday, October 15, 2004
YOU KNOW YOU'RE GROWING OLDER WHEN... You know you're growing older when you start reading for pleasure that which you ignored, avoided, or were otherwise forced to read when you were in school. I've had a copy of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass laying around for ages. I'm not even quite sure why. So, looking for something to read, I started in on it. Plus I'm feeling the pull of Willy again. I'm heading out to Half-Price Books on Saturday, so I'll probably pick up a couple of Shakespeare books. (What were you thinking I was talking about? Sickos.) Plus, about the only radio station I ever listen to any more is NPR. I'm getting old. Thursday, October 14, 2004
AN OFFER YOU CAN'T REFUSE My sister has asked me to be Sydney's godfather. Of course, I said yes. I'm working on the accent now. ;) Tuesday, October 05, 2004
JUST A MOMENT Had a "Wooah" moment over the weekend. Everybody has them I think. It's the moment of realization where the theoretical meets the physical; where what was only a thought becomes reality. It's the difference between knowing you only need a point to win, and actually winning, between thinking "I'm going to be an uncle/aunt" and actually holding your niece or nephew, between thinking "I'm going to graduate high school/college" and actually holding the diploma in your hand, etc. etc. It's that moment where you go "Wooah. This is actually happening." My own little moment came on Saturday afternoon. My little moment was "Wooah. I'm actually getting married." (I'm sure there are a few of you out there going "You're just now figuring this out??" My response to you is "Oh hush, wiseass.") The reason this came about is because we've bought our wedding rings. My better half and I were up at the mall. It's the mall where I got her engagement ring, from Fred Meyer Jewelers. (For those in the Cleveland area, the one at Southpark. Good selection, good prices. Ask to talk to Shari. Tell her Chris sent you.) So we stop in, mostly because I wanted to show her what else I had been considering for a ring. Since we were there, we also looked at wedding rings. Aerri found what she liked, easily enough. It's a thin, yellow gold band, with about a half dozen small diamonds set along the top. A nice complement to her engagement ring. I took a bit longer for my final decision. I've never really given a great deal of thought to what my wedding ring would look like. I don't suppose most guys do, until they need to get one. I always figured I'd just get something very similar to my father's, a simple gold band, maybe a bit of design work along the edge. Nothing too complex or fancy. I won't say that my ring is complex or fancy, just not quite what I expected I'd get. Don't get me wrong, I'm quite pleased with it. It's got a top and bottom band of yellow gold, with a larger center band of white gold. There's a row of a half dozen small diamonds inset into the white gold band. It's a very nice complement to Aerri's ring. They almost look like a set. And yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll have other "Wooah" moments about getting married. More than likely, the biggest will be on the night of October 15, 2005, when everything is all over. Then I'll probably be going "Whooooooooooooah." GEEK OF THE RINGS Was watching Return of the King with my better half over the weekend. Naturally, being the smart alek that I am, comments slip out of my mouth. At the point were Gandolf and Pippin ride over the stream, and Gandolf says they've just entered the realm of Gondor, I go "It's the GPS. Gandolf Postioning System." When Aragorn is trying to convince the ghosts to come and fight for him, and he goes "What say you?" as the camera pans past the row of ghosts, most with really bad teeth, I say "Do you have dental?" And as Frodo and Sam are clining up the secret stairway hundreds of feet about the Nazgul city, out comes "Hey, I can see my house from here!" (This one might have come out of Aerri's mouth.) It just goes to show you, no movie is safe when I'm around. |
