32 Degrees and Cloudy

Sunday, March 30th, 2008 @ 11:45 pm | Kids/Family | By: Midwestern City Boy

The temperatures hovered right around freezing with a wind chill of 23°F. Not the best weather for The Girl’s first soccer game of the “spring” season. The field had patches of partially frozen mud between tufts of still dormant grass. But it was still outdoor soccer. So, she and her teammates put in their Under [...]

Nothing Should Have Changed

Saturday, March 29th, 2008 @ 11:00 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

I upgraded to the most recent version of WordPress on Saturday night. Nothing should have changed from a visitor’s perspective; but you never know with software upgrades. We’ve been using WordPress for three years and it gets better with every release. It’s a nuisance to host your own blog; especially when the system administrator would [...]

HNT – 135

Thursday, March 27th, 2008 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

Occasionally, California Girl and I take an “old style” HNT photograph in which we aren’t fully nekkid, or what we are doing isn’t as readily apparent. By chance, we happened to take one of those photos this week so we decided to post it. We have also posted some pictures of California Girl handling the [...]

Two For Tuesday – 128

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008 @ 10:00 pm | Photos, TFT | By: Midwestern City Boy

Tuesday was a crazy day as evidenced by how late this post is. Since it was so chaotic we thought that some upside down photographs would be a suitable conclusion. So here is a collage of us in some positions that we don’t frequently use. It may have been very late but California Girl made [...]

A “Quick” Upgrade

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008 @ 1:30 am | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

Married in Ohio was intermittently inaccessible late Monday evening while I was performing a software upgrade. It should have been offline less than 5 minutes; but it ended up being almost 10 times that long. I learn something every upgrade even though I don’t want too. It certainly would be a lot easier if I [...]

Late For Work

Monday, March 24th, 2008 @ 11:15 pm | Him | By: Midwestern City Boy

I “overslept” today which is a polite way of saying that I spent some quality time with California Girl this morning. I wonder if the people I work with have any idea what we do when we are “sleeping”. I’m probably in a better mood that usually when I first arrive in the office; but [...]

Happy Easter

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008 @ 11:30 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

I just wanted to take a minute and wish everyone a Happy Easter. It is a Christian Holiday but I think the timing especially this year when it is so close to the start of spring has a special meaning to almost everyone. The taxman cometh soon for a huge check from us; but otherwise, [...]

A Good Good Friday

Friday, March 21st, 2008 @ 11:55 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

Today is Good Friday, and, unfortunately, like many people, I had to got to work. I also make every effort to come home early. I worked late on Thursday just so I could start the day with a clean slate. And I made sure to work out early in the day. Even so, I was [...]

HNT – 134

Thursday, March 20th, 2008 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

Chickie commented on last week’s HNT post that she’d “laugh too hard for sex if Sweety plopped one of those on his head.” So, we thought it would be fun to put on one of our other hats and make a collage. It’s not as big and floppy as our leprechaun hat so it doesn’t [...]

Two For Tuesday – 127

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008 @ 2:00 am | Audio, Photos, TFT, Video | By: Midwestern City Boy

Here is the third and last part of the video that we made a couple of weeks ago. I really wish we had the bandwidth to post them as a single video rather than in pieces. Maybe we’ll have a bigger pipe one of these days. In the meantime, here’s a question for readers/viewers. From [...]
