What you think does matter

Halo 4 - my son is so giddy. My son started drooling and was almost in a euphoric state when he saw the commercial for the new halo game – HALO 4. He about yanked my arm of trying to get my attention so I could see the commercial promoting the game. I didn’t want to let on but I myself had a bit of drool on my lip as I watch the promo. Sadly enough it is not out yet and you have to pre-order the game: I already visited Amazon to see if I could order it. check out one of the Halo 4 videos The question now is do I pre order it for Christmas or do I wait. If I wait I run the risk of not being able to order it – which would kill me just as much as it would kill my son. But if I order it now I will suffer wondering “when will I see the game?”….. oh the confusion. The funny thing is that my son is already expecting to receive this game – I want that dad! No please, can you, I would like: he just said – I want that Dad. Personally, I can’t wait to get it, it bring the inner c...

She is trying to KILL ME!!!!! For anyone who has read my blog for some time, by now you know I love my kids. I would and will do anything for them - my wife knows this too. I think she was using this love or weakness to her advantage. It was all a trick - you see. She tells me that taking my son to the air show event on Saturday would be fun, that it would be a great father and son moment. I said - I hate to fly. She said I didn't have to - my son could ride with other children and I can be safe on the ground. Lies; all lies I tell you! We get there early in the morning, it's a beautiful day and my son has no clue what is going on. We arrive and he is ecstatic - I was worried that he would be afraid and chicken out - or worst, start to cry. But he was a man, a big boy - but he wouldn't go up unless dear old dad went with him.... What? I had to say yes in front of all these people but on the inside I am screaming "oh hell no!" but I had no choice but to ...

Funny - Barbie found in fridge. Start of an interesting morning. OK, who wakes up in the morning with only one thing on their mind [ need a cup of coffee now ] and is confronted with a Barbie doll in the fridge? Apparently I am the only one to have this happen to them? Really, I knew my wife was making a wonderful decorative birthday cake for my lovely niece, Aaliyah. The cake, this I knew. What I did not know, what I did not expect at seven in the morning after a late night TV binge, that as I opened the fridge door to get milk for my desperately much needed cup of coffee - was to find Barbie staring back at me. It was traumatic, it really was. Those cold blue eyes, glazed lifeless look and oh so creepy smile? She was in the cake, the cake was wrapped in plastic and she had her hands up like as if she was reaching for me... Disturbing. Of course, after my initial shock, I couldn't help but laugh as I thought - Man this would make a great blog. I normally write blogs about the dec...
