32

I reached this number last Saturday. Whoop-ity-doo!

I used to get so excited for my birthdays, now I could care less. My birthday excitement is all spent on my son.

My wife asked what I wanted to do for my birthday, and all I wanted was for our family to enjoy a day at the house. What a great boring day it was. I loved it.

One of the highlights of my birthday was getting a piece of mail from one of my oldest friends. While the images sent in the mail were of no major consequence, the act itself meant the world to me.

Unfortunately, keeping up with this old friend has been very hard to do. He lives about 45 min. away now, and in the hustle-bustle of daily life, that seems like forever.

So, my birthday resolution to myself is for me to work harder to stay in touch with my old friends.

Here's to you Mr. Story!

My Pride & Joy



















Without a doubt, Sean is the greatest accomplishment of my lifetime to date.

Nothing can compare to the absolute joy this little boy brings to my life.

Whatever his passions are in life, I hope to fuel those and see them thrive.

I hope my brother and sister fuel his mind and imagination with their creative, abstract energies.

I hope my wife instills in him the great caring and compassion she has for others. He has definitely received her beauty and those eyes.

I feel a deep-seated need to protect him from harm. I worry about protecting him so much that he becomes sheltered, and lives a life not of his choosing.

I can't wait to spend the years watching him grow into a young boy and then a man.

Until then, I will enjoy the moments I can and grab all the "Smooches" that I can.

Serious Folk Need not apply

Due to an over abundance of melodrama coursing through the veins of siblings mine, all deep thoughts will be best left to Jack Handy.

Thanks.

D&D Poems

The geek-E-ness of me can no longer be contained.


Balls of Bat Guano I use for my Castings
Down from the hall comes a lone fireball crashing
Burning inferno all around my head
In just 2 seconds I think I'll be dead.....

** It helps if you think of the Sound of Music,
specifically the tune *A few of my favorite things.....

---------------------------------------------------------

High on a hill lived a lonely Sorceror
Lay-Dee
Yoda-Lay-Dee
Yoda-Lay-He-Who
Maiden on the floor, ravaged from the horror
Lay-Dee
O-Dee-Lay-Dee
O-Dee-Loo
Pentagrams drawn, keep the sorceror warded
Lay-Dee
Yoda-Lay-Dee
Yoda-Lay-He-Who
Ritual Complete, Sacrifice Aborted
Lay-Dee
O-Dee-Lay-Dee
O-Dee-Loo

Bet u cant guess which tune this is set to???
