Last night, some of our friends were gracious enough to share their baseball tickets with us. The Yankees were playing the Tigers. It is always nice, when I watch the Yankess play, to go with other people who are also not Yankee fans (especially when they are providing the tickets). I was able to keep … Continue reading Nothing like watching the Yankees get spanked in the Bronx→
So, it has been a couple of months now, that I have set up the “new blog.” On the old one it was a lot more complicated to publish posts, because it required an FTP program, which was fine when I was at home, but my firm’s network blocks FTP Programs. Since I was rarely … Continue reading 100th post on Jake’s New Blog→
For those interested, and who do not check what else is new, here are the pictures of Piper last weekend. Here is are some short videos. Both of the ones posted last night are from last weekend.
So, I picked a really good day to start being more positive. It has been pouring rain all day, hahaha. Honestly, I’m not really bothered by it. So I’m not going to complain.

Even though it is Friday, I am having a tough time getting excited for the weekend today. Some of it is because of the fact that I know it is not going to be a restful weekend. Some of it is that the weight of the world getting me down, again. Hahaha. #1. I was … Continue reading Hooray for Friday!→
We found out yesterday that our good friends the Halls are going to be moving to California so that Doug can attend the MBA program at UCLA. I have to admit that I am pretty jealous that they are escaping the great white north. I’m also pretty bummed that they are going to be so … Continue reading Homies Moving to Greener Pastures→
I got home from work at a reasonable hour last night, and decided to try to keep going with the faux-training for the LI half Marathon. I started around 7 just working my way from my house, down Ft. Washington, to riverside, then back over to B-way so that I could catch the Riverside Park … Continue reading More Outdoor Spring Fun→
