Notarized Dan and I have been slowly collecting all the bits and signatures to make “us” official (as much as we can in the eyes of the state). I’d imagine getting married involves as much a paper trail, but Target doesn’t have a registry for domestic partners—so there are some differences. I suppose. This morning…

Alternate photo for the day is here I’ve been pretty diligent with scheduling these days. Monday started off with a slip of my mind however and I drove down to Cincinnati to go over some screens. I found myself with just enough time to squeeze in a haircut at my barber and boy was that…

A snapshot from Anne & John’s weddin last year

Mark (R) Matt (L) – I think. [ + zoom ] Ham and lots of tasty homemade vittles at my sister’s place this afternoon. In between glasses of sweetened tea, catching up around the table, finding out Kelly and her shoes tickle my niece’s fancy, nabbing slices of pineapple upside-down cake, we played some Nintendo.…

The World of Momcraft [ + bigger, different view ] Another slice from the visit at my mom’s house. She’s always being creative. When not making something, she’s handing you food, exclaiming, ”It’s good for you!” — a master at spotting unnecessary sugars. And those vegetable tortilla chips with flax seed were indeed excellent.

Genes and jeans. Thanks to my nephew for manning the camera [ + ] This was the scene as family gathered to see my brother off to Atlanta—not for vacation, but for life and work. It’s a big deal, but as Glass-folk we underplay the weight of something and ham it up with talk of…

Enjoying the day with the extra hour After brunch with my ma down in Northside on Sunday, I loaded up my pockets with candy she had set out for Halloween and we headed out for an afternoon with no agenda. The best kind. One diversion was the Sacred Labyrinth by the Mercy Hospital up in…

July 15, 2006 I’d say yesterday went without a hitch, but there was a significant one: my nephew married his longtime sweetheart. And though it was hot (very hot), the skies were blue and sunny – a welcome change from the week of rain preceding the day. My sister’s backyard looked beautiful, along with the…

mmmm, bier I posted about my nephew’s wedding, but failed to mention the bachelor party the night before at the Newport Hofbräuhaus. Good fun, tasty beers, and lots of food (like onion rings and buffalo wings) made us feel like we were right in Deutschland! Sadly, we did not sing any German drink songs, or…

Western Hills Best Buy So where was I? Oh yes, last Monday I went to help my mom pick out her first digital camera. After much weighing, we selected a Sony DSC-W50 for a variety of reasons: easy-to-use, great screen, shooting modes, size, shape, and price. Oh yeah, that’s my mom in the picture. Blurred…
