Hubster and I hit a major milestone this year when we celebrated 10 years of marriage – 14 years of partnership total. In the normal world that’s an accomplishment. In the Navy world it’s a feat of strength. In the Submarine world, it’s a miraculous event that only the strongest can pull off. But here’s the…

Well, the U.S. is getting closer and closer to election day and everyone in the world is watching the horror unfold in front of their faces. Each day I read the news I am more convinced that something terrible will happen in November. My friends’ social media posts are filled with terror and every post is…

I would like to preface the story by saying it just seems like I eat Taco Bell a lot – I don’t think I actually eat there more often than the average American. This is based on my deduction that the average American eats Taco Bell at least three times a week… Recently I was…

For several days now I’ve been on social media talking about how Lola has apparently entered the matrix and is using it to move around. She’s really freaking me out! I was sitting in my office, writing a blog obviously, and Lola was at my feet chewing on her toy. I could hear her, see…

We estimate our Nikon camera has enough memory cards to take 10,000 photos. That’s TEN THOUSAND! We don’t think it’s enough. We’ve been generous enough to allow the Daddybeast to…

What do you get when you mix Lola with a baby bison? You don’t know? Well, prepare to find out! Lola and I are taking our schtick on the road to Yellowstone National Park. We’ve arranged (with an employee we are related to) lodging inside the park and we’ve got it on great authority that…

You know that one episode of Seinfeld where Jerry leaves the apartment and Kramer immediately springs into action – moving furniture, inviting people over, and generally having a grand old day? Then Jerry comes home and Kramer is napping and he thinks that’s all Kramer did all day. That’s Lola and I when Hubster leaves…
Read MoreI just need to get something off my chest. It’s been weighing on me and I think I might explode if I don’t say it out loud for the world (or two people) to hear. I am ticked off that we are getting another Jason Bourne movie. Whew! That was really keeping me up at…
