    I wish I knew the history behind tubing. I don’t even have the time to research it right now. I wonder who first decided to remove the innards of a tire and put it to water. I mean, don’t get me wrong, it’s a great idea. Where else can one feel comfortable toting a cooler…

    7 days ago I weighed 155 pounds. Today I weigh 152 pounds. I will continue to give updates on my diet every Saturday until the end of NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month). I hope to lose 20 pounds in total. I realize it’s not much. I also realize I am not obese. I could refer…

    Emory was conceived a year ago today. I know the exact day almost down the minute for several reasons and I’ll mention a few of them below. Four months earlier, I had gone to visit my doctor. I had blood work run. She checked for any genetic predispositions. Everything looked fine except that my measles…

    When Emory was first born, he had his days and nights mixed up. He slept soundly all day long and for stretches of several hours and then at 9 PM the long stretches came to an end. At night, he’d drift off and then wake up almost immediately. This left two very exhausted, new parents.…

    I had the cancer cut out of my upper lip yesterday. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be. Although, when they were finished I looked like this: Usually I look like this. (I’m the guy on the right.) I arrived at 9:45 AM. They took me in at 10:00 AM and told me…

    I’m dieting, which means we’re coming up with new and exciting ways to eat healthy foods. I began by purchasing this book and it’s pretty great. We’re eating a lot more veggies and more often. TobyJoe and I eat pretty well to begin with, him more so than me. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t…

    Tomorrow I’m scheduled to have my face ripped apart for mistakes I made as a teenager. (OK, so I’m exaggerating a little.) I am not looking forward to it, not one bit. I’m scheduled to be there at 9:45. And it can take anywhere from 3 to 7 hours. Judging by the size of my…

    I was pregnant for almost 3 weeks before I knew it. And during that time The Weird Shit started. The Weird Shit in the beginning was even weirder because I wasn’t aware of the fact that I was pregnant. Had I not eventually peed on a stick to discover I was “with child”, I would…

    Once, there was a teenage girl who couldn’t put on weight to save her life. She weighed a mere 100 pounds and stood 5 feet, 6 inches tall. She was so skinny, her mother forced her to drink weight gain shakes for breakfast. And then she went to college and discovered how to write annoying…

    I’ve never been one for joining in on all the extracurricular blogger activities but today I joined NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month). I have seen the term used all over the Blogosphere and up until I read Derek’s post today, I had no clue what it stood for. I’m going to try and post here…
