Lately, something has changed. A few months ago, I couldn’t think about Jolene weaning. Now? I’m down with it. Well, technically the weaning process began the day she started solid foods 18 months ago. But most people think of weaning as The Official End of Nursing and that’s what I’m talking about now. For the last year or so, we’ve been in a solid rhythm of nursing when we’re together, usually at bedtime or when she’s feeling particularly needy, but also being able to go...
The Plot Thickens…
You know what I’m looking forward to? Never having to post update about this lawsuit ever again. It has turned into such a convoluted clusterfuck that it’s become very easy for her side to develop their own entirely different narrative for what’s transpired. Every time I see her cronies drumming up some armchair legal analysis, it sounds like a teenager...
Lawsuit Update.
This post is for those who are following The Case. All others can ignore. Last time I updated, the court had not only dismissed at least three motions the plaintiff filed against me, but also came back with the initial opinion that the entire case “lacked merit” and could be dismissed unless she could provide some compelling reason not to....
Birthday Bummer.
I’ve dreaded turning 35 for, oh, say, as long as I can remember counting to 35. I know that age ain’t nuthin’ but a number, but that was my scary number. For me, 35 was the tippy top of the climb up the roller coaster, and once at the top, there was nothing but a swift decent straight down to...
A Reminder About Sharing Your Account with Someone…

That “Terms of Service” specifically stated that sharing your account password with anyone, or reposting any of my content elsewhere on the web, is a violation of TOS and would result in...
Needing a Break.
This post is nothing more than an apology, both retro and proactive, for being somewhat absent from the online spaces that require/request my presence. I’m merely going through a period in which I have a lot to take care of in my real life, and a whole lot to avoid online. I’ve been halfheartedly posting a few quips and links...
sk8ter boi.
Jules has been asking for a skateboard since his last birthday. He begged hardcore for Christmas and Grandma said that’s what she was going to buy him but she ended up choosing a different present instead. He cried about that, so we told him that we’d buy it for his birthday. I have no idea where the obsession came from,...
Closing out the Second Semester of Grad School
I can hardly believe it, but I managed to survive another semester of graduate school. The first one was hairy, so I whittled my schedule down to part-time this spring and it really paid off. I have an A in my Public Health Concepts and Practice course. I have absolutely no idea what kind of grade I’m carrying in my...
