Working from Home
As we are in the midst of Atlanta Snowpocalypse II: The Bride of Snowpocalypse, neither Jenn nor I have gone to work for two days. This was anticipated on both sides with Home Depot closing their offices yesterday and half of today and my work basically telling me to “be smart” and “work from home …
A Couple Quick Notes for Amazon
I have turned into an electronic reader. I almost exclusively read books on my iPhone and e-reader now ((A few years ago I stated that I was making the transition but didn’t see me ending my paper book purchases. However having an entire library on my iPhone is just…awesome. There’s no other word for it. …
First Food
Griffin got his first solid food tonight. By “got” I mean we pushed some into his mouth with a spoon whereupon he mostly mushed it around and spit a lot out. Perhaps some got swallowed. I call it a good first attempt.
Baby Proofing
Baby stuff is like Wedding stuff: it’s both expensive and marked up due to the specialized nature. Griffin is standing himself up now by holding on to things and also crawling around like a maniac, therefore it’s time to make some things in the house less dangerous to his still clumsy self. Things like the …

I live in a neighborhood that looks like this when it snows. We don’t get snow very often here in the …
Banner Day for Griffin!
Yesterday Griffin crawled for the first time. At least, by our definition of crawling. He’s been commando crawling a.k.a. “naga-ing” for a week now. Our crawling threshold was “two repeats of hand-foot, hand-foot” movement. He did that yesterday. Run for the hills! It’s time to baby-proof the house. Update: Whoops. I put the embed link …
Classic Movie Night
We’ve been having fun with a monthly movie night at our place for the past while. It’s a good opportunity to have friends over and watch various “classic” ((Our rule for the definition of “classic” is that the movie must be old enough to run for president.)) movies or movies that everyone should see. So …
Georgia General Assembly 2014
The 40 most dangerous days of the year are about to start. The Georgia General Assembly is back in session this coming Monday, January 13, 2014. It will be a short 40 days this year, however, because the primaries are on May 14, 2014. Why does that matter? Because this is an election year and …
