Normally, I post all the Charles pics over at his website (which if you haven’t been checking out, you are a tool), but I just did a freshy post last night, and this is too cute not to be online somewhere immediately: In case you’re curious, I’m working another of my patented all night shifts, […] Hearnwife is very fond of reality TV, particularly the “Find Some Exploitable Talent”-style shows like “American Idol,” “So You Think You Can Dance,” and “The Next Great Fluffer.” I don’t find them all that interesting, usually, but I always get sucked into the first few episodes of any given season, when they have the laughable […] Thanks to my old friend Noel, I have been alerted to the interestingness that is the Johari Window. It’s a personality tool that compares what I consider my dominating positive personality traits to be to what others consider them to be. Check out mines here, yo, and tell me if you think I’m basically retarded. […] Having a baby really does change everything, sometimes for the better, and sometimes for the worse. For example: Charles routinely wakes us at about 6am. I do enjoy being up at that hour, but unfortunately my body doesn’t usually permit it. On the downside, due to lack of sleep, my brain is getting faulty; I […] I had to get the Mazda fixed yesterday. It’s needed a new timing belt since approximately 60,000 miles, and it’s at 101K right now, so every acceleration was coming with a little prayer. Bad times, that. I’d read that usually when they do the timing belt, that’s the time to get the water pump replaced, […] I watched a Space Shuttle launch last week, the first one I’d seen in a long time. I don’t avoid them, but I don’t go out of my way to see them; this probably indicates that I’m deeply scarred from having watched the Challenger asplode on live TV 20 years ago, or something. I dunno. […] Aaaaand we’re back, and we are also very PIMP, let me tell you. (PIMP = Pleasant Indeed, My Pallies.) Team Hearn took a short vacation to Fenwick Island, where we participated in beach activities such as Tanning, Swimming, Napping, Drinking, and Eating, in no particular order. Charles behaved admirably, even though he’s still not […] This rain has been insane in the membrane. You’ve probably seen the pictures of what’s going on downstate, but you may not have known that New Castle County is getting pretty moist as well. This is right by my house, probably not 2 miles away. Luckily, I’m situated on relatively high ground (in contrast to […] I tried to get by on four hours sleep a night for as long as I could, but I appear to have hit the wall, and hard. Charles has been a bit colicky, which means basically he alternates between brief moments of calmness and brief moments of outright screaming. The bits of calmness aren’t as […] My patio reconstruction project continues. I’ve started digging around the existing patio, with two possible plans in mind: expanding the size of the patio so that there’s more room for nice patio furniture, and also possibly digging underneath the existing semi-removed concrete and putting dynamite under there. I’ll let you know how that goes. […] |
