This morning my car started flashing a service engine light as Karey and I began a long drive. We’re at the service center now, and should be back on the road around noon (a bit lighter in the bank account, but with a more reliable vehicle!). As I sit here, I think about the sense… Continue reading Dread

Karey & Jon Go To The (Caldwell) Zoo
Yesterday Karey & I went to the Zoo, specifically the Caldwell Zoo in Tyler, TX. Friends told us to check it out, and since Karey is the quintessential animal lover, I try to take her to a zoo every once in a while. I’m a bit different – zoos tend to bore me (I’ve seen animals… Continue reading Karey & Jon Go To The (Caldwell) Zoo
But It Looks Like a Heart
Earlier this month, Karey & I celebrated the 15th anniversary of the first time we met in person (We met online before it was cool – actually it was still heavily stigmatized!) In honor of that, I’ll post this anecdote. A few months ago we were driving on an epic road trip and stopped at a… Continue reading But It Looks Like a Heart
How Long Should a Fitbit One Sleep Wristband Last?
I’ve been a fan of the Fitbit since the first tracker was introduced two years ago. I upgraded to the Ultra when it came out, and upgraded to the One when it was released last year (My fat wrist means I probably won’t be going to the Flex anytime soon though!). Recently the sleep wristband… Continue reading How Long Should a Fitbit One Sleep Wristband Last?
Random Sexting
About 9 months ago, when we switched carriers, Karey got a second phone number that was local to Shreveport. She hardly ever uses it, since her regular number was ported to Google Voice. However for MMS messages (does anyone even call them that anymore? Picture messages?), she has to use the Shreveport number, since GV… Continue reading Random Sexting
Summer in Shreveport
So aside from some trips here and there, Karey and I are starting on our second summer in Shreveport. Now if the pool would just warm up we’d be all set! Any suggestions for fun summer activities?
A Childless Adult Visits Toys R Us
Recently Karey & I went to Toys R Us to get a few baby shower gifts for our soon-to-be-born first cousin once removed. While Karey was looking, I decided to snap a few photos of some oddities I notice. Note: None of these were purchased for said soon-to-arrive cousin. So first, if your child wants… Continue reading A Childless Adult Visits Toys R Us
2010 in Review
OK, Since I don’t send out a Christmas letter, here’s my life update in case anyone is interested! If you aren’t, then have a Happy New Year, I hope 2011 is an awesome year for you! Anyway, the year started a bit slow and cold. Karey and I ringed in the new year sitting in… Continue reading 2010 in Review
An Open Letter To My Wife: Things I Won’t Do
In the spirit of the book I just read on Abraham Lincoln, I’ve decided to write an open letter (to my wife). As I have no newspaper to publish it in, I suppose my blog will have to do. After all, blogs will most likely replace newspapers in the future anyway, much to the New… Continue reading An Open Letter To My Wife: Things I Won’t Do
