We recently got a new favorite toy in our household. I know that some families get jet skis, or multi-room tents, but we got a recliner. Yes, we’re an active, healthy family, but like the Most Interesting Man in the World says, “I don’t always lie around, but when I do, it’s in a vegetative state.”
On Losing my Address Book
Of course anyone I mentioned this loss to looked at me a bit incredulously and said, “You know you can have all that info online. Why use an address book?” I knew I was sounding like a horse and buggy owner complaining about the exhaust of the new motorized vehicles.
Tomorrow, We’ll Have Orange Sandwiches!

I Left Elvis at the Cottage
I was blow drying my hair hoping not to pop a fuse. The light was terrible. Over the toilet, a yellowed note listed what not to flush into the septic system. I turned off the blow-dryer. I decided that I was done with it, done with hair.
Skinny Jeans
My wife is the catalyst behind many things, one being my jean purchases. “You should get yourself some new jeans,” she’ll remind me. “Don’t buy a baggy pair. No ‘relaxed fit’. You’re slim and they hang off your butt,” she’ll add with a loving smile.

Ladies and Gentleman, the cat is out of the bag — it appears that Enrique Iglesias is just about the only man who loves to see women cry.
