  • Reagan’s Birthday Party

    Saturday night was the culmination of much careful planning and sneakiness on the part of Reagan’s friends and myself. We had an 80’s themed party at the Smoot’s house. Reagan thought we were going to dinner. On the way into the building, the door man asked what apt. we were going to. When I told…

  • Role Reversal

    Today Reagan had to work. Normally if anyone works on Saturday, it is me. I have been hard pressed to figure out what to do with myself this morning. Normally Reagan wakes me up really early and pesters me until I get out of bed and hang out with her. It is really quiet around…

  • The Pepsi Challenge

    I’m trying something radical today. I normally drink 4 or 5 bottles of Coke per day. Today, I decided that I’m going to try switching over to water. Mostly just as an experiment. So I went up to the dining room and got a bunch of lemon and lime wedges, so that the water will…

  • Not affraid to show up to my own b-day party shirtless

    My Aunt just posted this on our family website. Me at my third birthday party. I wish that I could still rock that no-shirt, chocolate on my face look. Those were the good old days.

Tamara has posted a bunch though, if you want to check them out. We stayed with our homies the Truscotts. It was…

  • PJB possibly moving to Jersey

    by

    Piper news: she is currently at Columbia and we are kind of milking it. After she recovered from her scary episode at Christmas, she was transferred back to Blythedale in Westchester County. She got sick the second day that she was back there and about a week later, they sent her to the ER at…

  • Why didn’t I even think of this before? Amazing.

    I’m not quite sure why I never thought of the whole xml thing before. The biggest reason that I have been so bad about updating my blog is that I traditionally published through Frontpage, which I don’t have on my work computer and would probably be blocked by the network anyway. Since I sit in…

  • It’s the new Blog

    Since I’m doing all of this from work. There is nothing too fancy right now. I’ll archive all of the old blog entries and make them available soon. It was Reagan’s Idea. Peer pressure, it’s a killer.
