So much has happened since that B-52s concert, that I cannot believe I let that much time slip away. There are three big issues, so I will quickly address them, here. First, Drake was finally officially diagnosed with Asperger’s (Autism spectrum). The doctors and I discussed what we need to do for him, and they sounded very optimistic for him. I do too. I just need to coordinate with Karen to get these supports into place. Second, I, too, went to the doctor’s office, to finally get an answer to my chronic fatigue. After several tests, his diagnosis was sleep …Read the Rest
ShareThe B-52′s
During the summer, a friend asked what the first concert I ever attended was. Mine was “Hewey Lewis and the News” (just after the Back to the “Back to the Future” fame). It got me thinking that concerts area a big part of growing up. I began looking at the …Read the Rest
ShareBack in 1995, Karen and I had been living together just a little while. We decided that we wanted to get a dog together, and I started making trips to local shelters to find the perfect one. On one occasion, I had to pass through the “cat room,” which was …Read the Rest

This was a total bust night. I am crushed at how down this really was. Let’s go though all the steps: 1 – advertised “Karaoke night out” in which several friends said they would come (at least seven – possibly ten). 2 – At the bar in question UFC championship …Read the Rest
ShareIntroducing Crimson Sky
The Friday we began spring break turned out to be really, really fun. Barb had been inviting me to come see her husband play (as guitarist for Crimson Sky) many times, but this would be the first real opportunity I would get to go do it. I was freaking awesome. …Read the Rest

I accidentally found a teen’s blog today. The page I landed on was a huge mess about how this girl was torn between two different boys. At the end, though, she remarked “I know no one ever reads this, so what does it matter.” But, I did read it, so …Read the Rest
ShareMature Games
Something that has been bothering me for a while are “adult games.” Specifically, that kids have access and are playing them. Don’t get me wrong here, I am not totally against them – in fact I am completely torn about what to do here. I teach technology, and kids seem …Read the Rest
