It's like, I was Captain No-Fun and now I've been promoted to Major Bummer and if this goes on much longer I'm going to be Lieutenant Colonel Bring-Down. So the house is officially on the market. We took off camping...

The last month has been nuts. Trip to Kansas, two days sick in bed upon our return, scrambling to complete work for a new job, end of the school year, Daisy's birthday, Grammy visiting, and ultimately having to abandon new...

had three heads of iceberg lettuce, one bottle of fat-free Catalina dressing, six bottles of Sobe green tea, and two of the most ginormous cans of Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli I've ever seen outside of a Costco. It's probably wrong...
