Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 68)
Murray threw up a couple of weeks ago. That’s not normal for him. It was alarming because it really shot out. I made a few phone calls and decided to keep a close eye on him before bringing him to the vet. I regret that decision now. One of the things I tried was giving…

Get Your Paci? Go Night-Night?
Toby and I went to DC a few weeks ago. We knew we’d be doing a lot of driving and decided that it would be best if we left Em with my parents for a few days. On Thursday night we drove to South Jersey. We spent the night there and left early the following…

Wanted: Eye-cam For Tanya Vlach
Tanya Vlach was in an automobile accident back in 2005 and lost the sight in her left eye. She has had a glass eye ever since. Now she’s on a quest for an eye-cam. She is calling on all engineers to recreate her eye so it includes a webcam. There are probably thousands of nerds…

Murray Is At The ER
I spent the afternoon with a toddler in one hand and a sick kitty in the other. Murray apparently consumed a couple of foreign objects both of which are currently stuck in his tummy. He’s having said items removed via an endoscopy as I write this. We are admittedly worried and miss him greatly. So,…

A Child's Portion Please
Last Christmas, Em received a Fisher Price glow worm. It plays children’s songs if you press its chest. It also lights up. He didn’t really care much for it back then. We played it for him and he would stare at it. We’d put it to bed with him at night just to keep him…

Elmo, Please Save Us
We’re literally climbing walls over here. Em is sick. Usually I take him outside and let him run around, but the only thing running lately has been his nose. He’s losing his mind with boredom and his voice by coughing. I never knew babies to get bored. But they do. They get really bored. And…

Calling All New Yorkers
If you happen to see someone giving out the fake copy of The New York Times, I’d love it if you grabbed one for me. I’ll pay you in cupcakes, love and whatever else. No joke. Cupcakes. Homemade and awesome. The love is pretty awesome too. (Thanks to Gothamist for the heads up.)

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 67)
I was trying to write a story about what you see below but I feel the picture does a much better job. This was taken right before lunchtime last week. P.S. I’m having trouble focusing these days (lots going on, more on that later) but will hopefully have my act together soon.

Haircut 100 and a MOHs Update.
I got a haircut last night. The woman didn’t even use scissors. Instead, she pulled out that razor thing and went all Edward on me. I generally tell hair stylists to do whatever they want with my hair. (I liken it to doing logo work. Things always work out better for everyone involved if the…

Em Dancin' To Ted Leo.
Emory dances a lot. He has two dances. The first one (which we can’t seem to capture on video) is by far my favorite. He shakes his head really fast from side to side until he gets dizzy and falls down. It’s truly one of the most outstanding things you’ll ever witness. The video I…
