Our Day At The Zoo Went Great

That's what a two-year old looks like after a fun day at the zoo. We spent the whole day out with Trey. He took naps in the car between locations and kept on going until nearly midnight. I think his favorite animals at the park were the ducks. Coming in second, I think, were the monkeys. He got to... Sign in to see full entry.

Help my potato travel the states!

I have finally changed shifts and that means good things for my blogging. This is also the last week of the semester for college and that also means good things for my blogging. I'm cutting back on my karate teaching for the next month and a half and that means...you get the idea. This week is going... Sign in to see full entry.

The Quest

Every Tuesday brings with it a quest that I embark upon. It's a quest of mortal importance. The quest for sleep. Sandwiched between two 24-hour days is the daylight hours of Tuesday. I get home around 7 am and have to be back to work tonight by 11pm. I was up nearly 24 hours before going to sleep... Sign in to see full entry.

Easter Weekend for Trey

Saturday morning we went to the city Easter Egg hunt. There was a field set with hundreds of eggs and kids up to three years old gathered around with parents. We lined up with the others showing Trey the eggs out on the field to collect. It was his first Easter Egg hunt. It's not really a hunt for 3... Sign in to see full entry.

The Train Game

One of Trey's earliest words was, "choo-choo." He loves the choo-choos. We have tracks out in the desert below our house where we can get a great view of them. Even if they are a mile long, we can see the whole train. Let me correct that. If you are tall enough to see over the backyard fence, you... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday wasn't a complete failure

And I wouldn't necessarily call it a success either unless just making it through the day can be called success. It was a long day of no rest and by the end of the day I was feeling ill. Probably from lack of sleep. I was able to get some good sleep last night and today feel much better. My son and... Sign in to see full entry.

What's on the agenda for April 12th, 2006?

So far, the day has gone like this: Got home from work this morning and fed my son and myself some breakfast. Helped my wife get some things ready for work. Checked my email. Checked my college website. Watched a video clip sent by a friend. Read some reviews for a game. Wrestled with my son. Took a... Sign in to see full entry.

A gift from my son

My son came down with a cold a couple of days ago and has shared that with me. I started on the Zicam yesterday and got plenty of rest. I have to work graveyard tonight so I won't be able to get plenty of rest today. I have changed my karate school days luckily, so tomorrow I'll be able to get more... Sign in to see full entry.

This week has been a good week for college

This week has been a surprisingly good week for college - even in physics. I somehow managed to get three 100's in physics on a lab assignment, a test, and last week's homework. Yeah! I need all the help that I can get. This week I am trying to get this week's homework and next week's homework done... Sign in to see full entry.

I am not alone

It turns out that I am not alone in my difficulties with Physics. Not by a long shot in fact. Someone posted a comment in the class forum with a heading of, "frustration," and asked if anyone else was having problems with the class. Answers came flooding in with people saying that the only way they... Sign in to see full entry.
