A Lifesaver? No... a REAL ring.
As a guy, I really didn't think I'd be into finding a ring for myself... especially since I've never worn one before. But this last week we scoured the internet and almost every jewelry store in town before i found "the one."
Who would've thought I would be so picky? ;) Ok, anyone who knows me... but the fact is, the selection of mens ...

So today is the day.
Childhood, high school, early 20's, late 20's... and now 30. I've long divided up my life into sections of events - events revolving around times or ages. I guess most of us probably do this.
When we're young, we may look out and think that at 25 we'll be married, have kids, a house with a yard... and then 25 comes and goes with the ...

I just wrote a lengthy post over at Becomng about a few things that everyone needs to do, master, whatever... BEFORE any of us can truly become productive.

I've been down the quit-road in the past, of course every time was unsuccessful although a learning experience. This time is different... for many reasons. Prior to the quit, I looked at it as the time I'm going to try quitting using laser therapy. I've talked about laser therapy to stop smoking for years - how great it is - how expensive it was - how I was ...

The eggnog is empty, the wrapping paper is <strike>in the garbage</strike> in a box ready to be moved to the garbage, and my brain and body are tired from traveling.
My Christmas started on Saturday morning as Mandi and I traveled north to Chippewa Falls to see my family. We ate, sang, played games, continued our traditions (reading Night Before Christmas enthusiastically, letting the Christmas Spirit in through ...

When I don't write for a while, it gets that much harder to say something because now I have no idea where to start - what to include - what to leave out... So I'll just spill a little bit and catch up in hopes that writing more over the holidays will get easier.

I finally got a new site design up... I've been working on it for ...

For about 10 years now, I've had a tooth that has bothered me. It's one of 3 baby teeth I still have because no teeth formed behind them.
Initially, a popcorn kernel got stuck in the gum and messed it up pretty good. Ever since, I've gotten chronic infections there. It was finally time to get it out.
I've decided on getting a bridge done due to cost (I'm saving ...

I'm at home during the layover between a wedding and the reception. Mandi is Maid of Honor for her best friend Becky's wedding.
The ceremony was nice. It was at a Lutheran church with a really long isle. It was kind of cool actually - if you're gonna do a church ceremony, get a long isle.
The reception should be fun - and hopefully short... the Badgers ...

I'm not sure if most of you have had strep or not, but I can tell you with certainty that I haven't. When I was little, my brother and sister would always get it, but never me! I was always treated though because I was considered a "carrier." Evidently I took in the bacteria, but it never infected me because I'm too tough. :)
Mandi ...

Well, it's been 22 years since I first sat at computer, and now it feels like I wouldn't function normally without them. Every computer I owned has been run by Microsoft Windows.
However, I often think of the first computer I learned on... the Apple IIe. Control, open Apple, reset. It was a good thing.
Over time, Mac users have formed a group being perceived as wearing ...
