    They are all reasons that I am super pumped for the upcoming weekend. First of all, I love Easter. In addition to being a mental marker that spring is actually here, and having heavy Christian religious significance, the best candy of the year is available for purchase. Reagan and I have been warming up for…

    My day is normally broken up into manageable units by sporadic IM conversations with Reagan. These conversations normally consist of Reagan telling me about what is on Oprah, and me telling her about the crap that I read in the paper. Today, when I got to work, I saw that Reagan was already online at…

    Reagan informed me that during her visit with Piper today, she found out that Piper will most likely be moving to a long term care facility in NJ, in the coming weeks. I still don’t know how I feel about it. It isn’t like we didn’t know it was coming. It is also really good…

    As always, we had some good times with Piper last weekend. She sits up these days, like it’s no big deal. In fact, she has learned how to pull her self up to sitting position, if you hold your hands out for her. She is getting more and more rowdy. When she is on her…

    She was thinking about getting the bird in the photo above. But then this happened: So we just kept it simple and picked up two pairs of zebra finches. We really like them. Actually, Reagan loves them.

    Reagan and I had a really great time at our race on Saturday morning. We were both fairly pleased with our times. The photo above is before the race, across the street from where we parked. The angle of the photo was not for artistic effect. It was because of the slope of our hood,…
