Two For Wednesday?

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011 @ 11:19 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

We’ve had a lot going on around the house the past few days; plus the project I am on at work has a major milestone this week, so we decided to postpone our weekly photo session until Wednesday. We plan to publish our TFT post late Wednesday evening and our HNT post as scheduled on Thursday. [...]

Happy St. Valentine’s Day

Monday, February 14th, 2011 @ 9:25 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

It’s a bit late in the day but I wanted to wish Happy St. Valentine’s Day to everyone who still believes in love (and celebrates today). Hope that that your day is great! California Girl, you you are very special to me. Happy Valentine’s Day.

Just Not Feeling It Today

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011 @ 11:47 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

I went to a wake (also known as a viewing or calling) today. Like all such things, it was very sad so I don’t feel much like publishing a Two For Tuesday post today. As I always say, tomorrow is another day; the world seems a better place after a good night’s sleep. So look [...]

2010 A Year In Review

Monday, January 3rd, 2011 @ 6:00 pm | Bitching, General, Him, Kids/Family, Love, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

January Had an occasion to do the Snoopy Dance because of something that happened at work. Took a cool photograph of California Girl with the flowers she received at The Girl’s last senior night. We reviewed the proofs of The Girl’s senior photographs and made our selections. It was a bit discomforting how rapidly her [...]

2011 New Year’s Resolutions

Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 @ 10:55 am | Him | By: Midwestern City Boy

Happy New Year! Since January 2nd always seems to be the day I post my New Year’s resolutions, here are my resolutions for 2011.  But first, here’s a recap of my resolutions for 2010 and how I did. Have oral sex with California Girl every time she shaves her pubic hair. This one is on [...]

Happy New Year

Saturday, January 1st, 2011 @ 5:35 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

Two thousand and eleven. It’s hard to believe that we are already in 2011. It doesn’t seem that long ago that we were talking about Y2K and all of the catastrophes that would happen when we reached the 21st century. The “new millennia” isn’t new anymore; a sizeable percentage of the world’s population doesn’t even [...]

I Already Know It’s December

Monday, December 6th, 2010 @ 11:45 pm | Bitching | By: Midwestern City Boy

One of the things that I don’t like about having a smart phone is that the weather widget in the status bar is a constant reminder of how cold it is outside. I don’t mind that its 12 degrees with a wind chill of 5 degrees below zero outside. But I don’t like the red [...]

The Good And Bad Continues

Saturday, November 27th, 2010 @ 9:00 am | Bitching | By: Midwestern City Boy

Last Saturday, I posted about having a productive day and how that’s both good and bad. The past few days have been more of the same.  We ate much too much at my mom’s house on Thursday. That’s good and bad for obvious reasons. Even though Saturday is typically our off day, we’re going to [...]

A Productive Day

Saturday, November 20th, 2010 @ 11:45 pm | Bitching | By: Midwestern City Boy

Today was a productive day, which, for a Saturday in November, is both good and bad. The replacement part arrived on Friday so I fixed the turn signal switch on the car that The Girl usually drives. Good that its fixed; but bad that I spent much of the morning upside down underneath the dash [...]

I Hate Sneak Thieves

Saturday, November 6th, 2010 @ 11:00 pm | Bitching | By: Midwestern City Boy

For the third time in four years, my sports watch was stolen from the locker room at work. It’s “my fault” for not making sure it was locked up; but one wouldn’t think that that they would have to go to such lengths to protect such an inexpensive item from their co-workers. I can “understand” [...]
