Neighborhood Wedding

We have been seeing a lot of people at the house three doors up the road from us. Now we know why.

A stretch limo and a Cadillac just drove around the block blaring their horns and covered with Just Married signs.

Congratulations, neighbors!

Genius

Marvel at my genius wife’s two monitor set up. It’s a MacBook Pro teamed up with a Thunderbolt Display.

Genius.

I love my genius wife.

I’m a Bad Red Sox Fan

Yesterday was the first time in ages that I caught a large chunk of a Red Sox game. I didn’t want to miss Peavy’s debut, and he was pretty awesome. Just imagine if he can keep it up at that level for a couple of months, and then if we can get Bucholtz back too!

We caught most of the game in the car as we were driving around, looking for something to do. Eventually we decided to just go home. When we pulled into the driveway the ~~D-Bags~~ D-Backs had the bases loaded with no outs in the 8th, with the Red Sox holding a 3-1 lead. It was tense. I heard the second Arizona run and the play at the plate, but that was it. In the time it took me to get into the house, get settled, and put the radio back on, the Sox had gotten out of the inning with the 3-2 lead in tact.

I feel like such a bad fan. I want to get into this team as they are surprising the hell out of every one. I’ve just been so pissed off after the damn Stanley Cup Final that I don’t want to get wrapped up in a team and get hurt again. Maybe now that we are post trade deadline I might be able to start caring again.

Go Red Sox!

More HipstaKitty

Ms Patches the HipstaKitty was kind enough to sit still while I played around with shake-to-shuffle. There is even a double exposure in this set.

Holy Crap!

I missed a day, holy crap!

For the first time since starting a public blog back in November of 2008 I went a whole day without a single post! What was I thinking??

Oh the horror! Oh the humanity!

Wait… the world didn’t end, did it? I guess it’s okay then.

Me Against the Bathroom

It’s me against the bathroom today. Either it gets spotless clean or I die trying. There can be only one.

A New/Old Song Called Thoughts

This was written at the same time as Laughing. The plan was to try writing songs that I could sing while playing the guitar. I think I played my first bedroom recording of this (with me playing my brother’s drums, gasp!) to Mike the bass player but he passed on it. This song should be brand new to everyone else on Earth. I always liked it, but never pushed anyone to play it. I don’t know why. As for the meaning of the lyrics? I have no idea at all.

A New/Old Song Called Laughing

I don’t remember a whole lot about this one. I wrote it along with two others in my bedroom at my parents’ house, probably in 1993 or 94. I know the idea was to write stuff that I might be able to sing and play at the same time. This was played by at least one of the short lived, unnamed bands I was in during the mid 90’s, but never to an audience. As for what the lyrics are about? I haven’t a clue.
