PLANTING THE SEEDS OF CHANGE ONE BAD PARKING JOB AT A TIME

I have one of those faces

  I found myself at the least happiest place on earth during the month of December. A place where every 5 minutes you see someone do the unthinkable. From cutting an old lady off to get a parking spot to seeing a customer yelling at a worker at a shorthanded jewelry store. I saw both […]

Kids > Gin and Tonic

  Growing up, my sister was on her own. She was the lone girl in the wolf pack of boys. There was Kim and then there were the boys. We were grouped together always as "the boys". The boys did this and The Boys did that. When bad things were done, it was rarely me […]

I get by with a little help from my friends...

A few months ago I was going though a rough patch. Nothing like a midlife crisis or anything, but more like a drain of emotions and energy. A bump in the road, more or less. (Perhaps it might be the male equivalent to "my time of the month", because I just read online that this […]

So what next?

When you are on top of the world you are able to dream on a level that most people cannot fathom. The world is truly your oyster and roadblocks are seen as mere bumps along the way. Nobody can tell you what you cannot do because you won't imagine it. When you are on a […]

The Balance of Love and Hate

Me: Why are you driving your sister crazy?  Why are you following her around?   Sean:  Because I love her.   When you're 5 years old, your 8 year older sister hangs the moon. She's the biggest influence in your life and even though she yells at you, hits you and tells you to go […]

Passion is Priceless

  If I could pick one thing that I love to do and do it for the rest of my life, it would be to cook. I love to cook! Something about being able to take a bunch of things and turn them into one thing, while trying to balance out their attributes and contributions […]

You think you know somebody

Sometimes the thing that makes you memorable is the thing you least expect or embrace. A close friend of mine is a working actress in NYC. She's been in a ton of stuff that most of us have never seen and spends her days working on her craft and auditioning for parts. She makes a […]

Ketchup is for Communists

My wife is a funny woman. I have been in love with this woman for over 17 years and I want to be with her till the day I die. Chances are I will die first, so saying till the day she dies wouldn't apply. Give or take a few years, she only has to […]

I married a T-Rex (and she's always right)

4am in the freaking morning one of the smoke detectors decided to let us know that it needed a battery. This stuff never happens at 4pm or at a time when I happen to have the ladder in the house. Like a hungry newborn baby, these little bastards want to be changed at 4am, after […]

Life goals and making it to 2nd base with a girl. (Make it a Blockbuster night)

Honesty is the best policy. No matter what happens or how things pan out, knowing you were up front and honest is always the best policy. You have to put it out there in order to insure that you are not wasting your time or giving people opportunities to warp or even steal away your […]
