Four days left!
12.14.09 | Permalink | 4 CommentsAgain I come here during exams. I don’t know if I’m particularly thoughtful during these natural intervals to take stock in performance, evaluate goals, and look toward the future, or perhaps it’s just a good study break/procrastination. Probably. Either way, here I am, in my last week of my second stab at the first semester [...]

Amidst exams
10.26.09 | Permalink | 2 CommentsI thought I would post a little something to say I am alive and well. Today we took the gross anatomy written and practical exams. Not bad, not bad. The keys aren’t up yet, but I’m feeling pretty good about it. Dr. Cleary alluded to some “character builders” among the questions, but I think it [...]

Hello, again!
09.27.09 | Permalink | 6 CommentsI promised myself going back to school that I would cut down on the tweeting, facebooking, and general internet piddling. Weekly Flickr and blog posts were acceptable, but no more. As it happened, I barely uploaded to Flickr and (obviously) posted nothing here. I was significantly less attached to the computer and my phone and [...]

Watching History Channel shows about the moon landing got us thinking and talking. We probably will see a manned mission to Mars in our lifetime. Me: Oooh, but it’s cold there! Joel: Well, yeah. Me: It’s not the kind of place you raise your kids. Joel, getting it: In fact, it’s cold as hell… Most [...]

I believe the Rolling Stones have a song to this effect.
07.12.09 | Permalink | 4 CommentsYesterday Zoe woke up around 9:00 AM. We played, cooked, played some more, swam, played, bathed, and played. At one point in the mid-afternoon I thought I might die from exhaustion and took a 20 minute break on the couch in a twilightish stupor, never falling asleep, but it was enough that when she asked [...]

Choose your own adventure: Wattses’ pizza toppings
06.16.09 | Permalink | 3 CommentsAround here we LOVE pizza. It’s Zoe’s number one request for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack most days. Frozen, make our own, or restaurant-bought, we definitely eat our share. Roughly twice a week, it goes something like this: Me, realizing it’s getting late and we probably ought to eat something, sucking up my feeling of [...]

It was a rough day.
Joel made me a business card after overhearing my mutterings while trying to hang drapes in Zoe’s room. It made me laugh.

Surprise!
06.09.09 | Permalink | 2 CommentsFriday night I showed up on Amanda’s doorstep, and if she wasn’t surprised, she fooled me – I loved seeing her face and watching her jump up and down and squeal. After our hellos we decided to go in search of dinner. We walked to Vortex to split the Double Coronary burger – a ridiculous [...]
