SS (which is the nickname I used to use in my old blog for my wife/partner – it means Someone Special) and I flew home last night after a long weekend in Florida to visit family.
I made a video of the view out my window as we landed because I just love landings. It’s just so amazing, to me, that such a massive thing … Read full post

After the Pop Tarts conversation, Sister managed to crack me up again during an installment of our ongoing game of combining words to make new ones.
She is in the bridal business and routinely rents tuxedos to people. She commented that the tux … Read full post
This evening, my sister and I were on the phone (we talk every evening). She was scanning the local news headlines and commented on a story.
