I went to the Marvel Universe Live! show with my sister and my 2 1/2 y/o nephew. In short, it was great. The Arena is a very kid-friendly venue, and we had pretty good seats. It was also a pretty good test for Sam and crowds, as he’s much more mobile these days. He did… Continue reading Super Sam

Here Comes the Sun, do do do dooo
One thing I’ve been working on at home is making it cheaper to live. We’re in the last part of a refinance (the mortgage will be going down $300/month!!), and the weather is cooling drastically – which means tracking down drafts. Winter (or, non-Summer, really) also means spending quality time in the attic, finishing the… Continue reading Here Comes the Sun, do do do dooo
This is L.A., Not LA (Part 1)
This past (extended) weekend, Bea and I along with Allen and Em headed to Los Angeles for our friend Melinda’s wedding. While I was looking forward to a little vacation and seeing Melinda, I honestly wasn’t super excited to visit L.A. I was told that I most likely wouldn’t like it. If you’ve met me,… Continue reading This is L.A., Not LA (Part 1)
So long, and thanks for all the pies
Around five o’clock this morning, Bea woke me up. “What is that noise outside?” “Sounds like a trash truck. It’s Friday, SDT picks up on Fridays.” “It smells like smoke.” “I don’t smell anything.” “It smells like smoke.” “Well dear, then go on the balcony and go look.” “OH. MY. GOD. HUBIG’S IS ON FIRE!”… Continue reading So long, and thanks for all the pies
Patakillers
Well, I saw my first Buck Moth Caterpillar of the season while walking the dogs this morning. I can’t believe it’s that time already. Like years past, I’ve scheduled the exterminators to make a visit to the oak tree next door. The infestation these days is not as bad as when I was a kid,… Continue reading Patakillers
Last Minute PizzaNight™
This is going to be another cheater post. Still though, a post. Bea and I managed to throw together a last-minute PizzaNight™ at our house tonight, and it went well. Bea, as usual, rocked the pizza. Our guests, as usual, rocked the toppings. A couple of quick photos before a viewing of last night’s Community,… Continue reading Last Minute PizzaNight™
Gutters, Punk.
Depending on your roof, proper gutters in Southern Louisiana can be pretty key. When we bought the house, it only really had gutters on the front – the second story gutters. For just about the entire first floor, which is quite long, there were none. And the 2nd floor gutters just drain to the walkways… Continue reading Gutters, Punk.
NaBloApparentlyNot
Well, Friday was my St. Patrick’s day, so I never got around to posting. I wasn’t hungover Saturday, but just couldn’t find it in me. And just don’t seem to have it in me today. Today for me has been (and continues to be) the Utter Backgammon Destruction of Savannah™, followed by yardwork, cleaning, tidying,… Continue reading NaBloApparentlyNot
Hooked on Tonics!
‘Tis the season. Kickball season. It’s starting to get warm again, and that means that for those miserably hot months before Saints season1, me and a bunch of other idiots2 will be spending our Sundays losing half our body weight in sweat, only to replace it with beer. We had our first “practice” tonight in… Continue reading Hooked on Tonics!
