Dear Miles, This is coming a day late, I’m sorry to say.  Today is your dad’s birthday, and we did our family celebration yesterday, which took up all my free time.  Everything’s a little more complicated with you involved; I can’t just run out and shop for a present or gro...

Oh my lordy, I’ve been terrible about posting lately.  In my defense, work has been busy, personal life has been busy. Here we go, though. There is a (relatively) new Mexican restaurant in town called La Reyna, and I’d heard really good things about it from friends, so the gang and I ch...

Dear Miles, I wasn’t sure I was going to keep doing these after month 12, but so much has happened this month that it seems a shame not to write about it.  Besides, you’re still my favorite guy, so why should I stop acknowledging your monthly milestones? This month marked some really im...

Getting molars sucks.  I remember when my wisdom teeth grew in.  I was lucky to have non-impacted wisdom teeth—that is, they just grew in like regular teeth.  That made their eventual extraction easier, but at the time they were cutting through my gums, it was quite painful. Poor Miles is g...

I’m working on a film, doing costume wrangling.  It’s called The Offering, and if you want to join a Facebook group on the topic, go for it.  It’s kind of stressful because it’s really different from costuming live theater, but I’m learning as I go.  It’s hard ...

No, that’s not an insult. I’m going back to work this morning.  I mean, technically I’ve been working from home for about 9 months now, but today I go back to the office.  Right now I’m sitting at my dining room table with the laptop that has actually been work-issue this w...

My little boy. My own little boy, just for me, whom I don’t have to share with anyone: not daddy, not Mubby and Skittergramps, not Grandma Cheryl and Grandpa Denny, not Uncle Tyler or Uncle Michael. I mean, I do share you with them, and I will continue to, but you’re mostly mine. Soon I&...

1. What did you do in 2008 that you’d never done before? Squeezed a complete human out my body. 2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I don’t remember making one, so I’m going to call that a win.  I think for next year my resolution will ...

These cover the last month or so.  Each is around 2 minutes. In other news, I was dancing for him a few minutes ago, and he wasn’t too impressed with the kicks, but he clapped after the butt wiggle. For some reason the titles got all messed up; they keep appearing much later than I expected t...

Okay, I know these things are kind of cheesy, but to tell you the truth, I enjoy it when other people write them, so I’m going to do it too. Seven things about me (of my own choosing), then I tag seven people to do the same.  This tag came from Darah. 1.  I’m really good at approximati...
