Shit Storm…

People have begun to ask me: “So, how do you like Fatherhood?”. And I don’t, frankly, but this isn’t a surprise to me. It’s unfathomable to most people, but it’s what I’ve always felt and what I expected at this stage. I have, however, figured …

Where’s the Glow III

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are now postpartum. The Baby has landed. The Stork has delivered. Whatever way you’d like me to say that we have gone from pregnancy to parenthood. So you might be wondering how I can write another entry about pregnancy. Well, I’ve …

Are You Ready?

Well, here we are the night before my wife and I become parents. One of my friends named it “Bodie-eve”. Very appropriate. And as I’ve talked to friends and relatives today the same question has been asked by everyone. Are You Ready? And there’s really …

Where’s the Glow Again

The last time I shared the joy that is my wife’s march through pregnancy, it got passed around to many people and supposedly created some laughs. This taught me that there is an opposite of the “you had to be there” joke. The lesser known …

Where’s the Glow?

So.  This is the first of what I assume will be many postings related to kids and parenting. (If you didn’t know… well… SURPRISE… We’re 6 months pregnant!) As my wife and I march closer to the birth of our little man, the changes are …

No man left behind…

I’m suddenly awash in blog topics, but this felt like something I should write the minute I felt inspired. No, inspired is wrong. Challenged is a better word. I attend a gathering of Christians in the entertainment industry – an odd group who are way …

Carried Away…

My wife and I went and saw “UP” on opening day. In 3-D no less. And I won’t fill this entry with all the reasons why Pixar is in a class by themselves, or why they are able to avoid the story stupidity and low-brow …

Enormous Moving Trucks and You…

All you need is a driver’s license and credit card in order to put yourself in a vehicle the size of your local highschool gym.  No special training.  Not even a pamphlet. So after my recent excursion in the biggest rental trucks available I offer …
