I just want you to know the performance anxiety is killing me. Kermit was terrible and Yoda was only so-so. Get your kicks in now. It may never happen again.

Home Alone – Day Seven
We just spoke on the phone, so there’s not much to say. In a way it’s more lonely here after talking on the phone. But that’s ok, I have to go to bed anyway and my tomorrow morning I’ll be too caught up in “the mom project” to dwell on it. Anyway, here’s a video for today, followed by the one I hadn’t finished from Wednesday.
Home Alone – Day Six
I’m sorry again kids. It’s going on 11pm and I’m just getting home. It wasn’t a bad day, just long… but way too long for a video. My hearings went well, if a little long. There’s some bleed over to tomorrow to finish things up, but that’s ok. Mom will be glad to know the bank got the appraisal back from the appraiser. It was more than we thought, so one possible stumbling block is out of the way. She’ll also be glad to know I can/will call to lock in our interest rate tomorrow. I went over to Memere [...]
Home Alone – Day Five
I’m really sorry kids, but no video tonight. I have it “in the can,” so to speak, but I found some things I have to take out – mostly work stuff I’m not really allowed to post in a public forum. It’s after bedtime, I just got back from dinner with Uncle Eric, Aunt Lisa, your cousins, and grandma/grandpa… so I don’t have the time or energy to do it now. So… tomorrow you may get a double-dose of dad, if my hearings don’t run late.
Home alone: Day two
I went out on a limb on this one and it broke. Still, it’s all I’ve got so it will have to do. Another video means another warning… and this time it concerns a TERRIBLE accent. I was going for mock tragedy and got something else. If it’s not watchable, you’ll know it pretty soon. Don’t feel bad about turning it off.
Home alone: day one
This is a warning to all friends, family, acquaintances, folks who see me on the street and swear I’m their cousin Bill from Wisconsin, and strangers: This could be the worst video you see on the internets all day. My self-esteem isn’t so low I think I’ll win the race to the bottom for long, with the volume of “stuff” uploaded daily. In fact, I may not be in the lead now but I’m not going to spend a lot of my time (and your’s) worrying about it. This is a message to my family… the first of many, as [...]
Life and cream soda
My Lightning lost game seven to the team of my youth. I’d like to introduce Chara’s long stick to his large intestine as much as the next Lightning fan, because Florida is my home now. When I say I’m going home, I’m always referring to Dunedin, not Boston or Billerica. It took a long time for this place to become home. We moved from a neighborhood of young families and friends to a less than half developed, walled in compound in a remote corner of God’s waiting room. (In case you were wondering, compound is a term of affection, referring [...]
