No more babies
I suppose it is official today, if it wasn’t already official on his first day of school. Alex is no longer a baby. Not that he’s been a baby for a couple of years, anyway. There was something oddly final about his first day of school, and today’s event solidified that for me. He lost [...]
GO BOILERS! BEAT THE IRISH!
I haven’t done much on my blog in awhile. Part of it is that I’m just so busy with school and work and home that I don’t have time. Part of it is that I have to keep a blog for one of my classes, so the time I would normally have to blog here [...]

And I thought I was old
At least in most of my classes, anyway. Today in my campaigns and elections class we talked about the use of social networking (among other things) as a way for candidates to reach the all-important youth vote. I commented that while I was perusing the DNC and RNC blogs last week for another assignment, I [...]
Time Management and first day of kindergarten
School is going well for me and, as you can see from the neglect on my blog, I’ve been busy at work, too. While my classes aren’t too much of a struggle yet, I’m finding it difficult to manage my time between school, work, studying, laundry, cleaning and spending time with the fam. I’ve not [...]
