Actual quote from my boy this morning after putting on these clothes:

"I'm a rock star! Is this what a rock star looks like?"

#54

It keeps the goop out of my son's eyes. He takes eye drops surprisingly well.

#53

I post this horrendous photo only to serve as a reminder in four months of just how miserable winter is.

#52

This is my best friend for the week. My boss is on special assignment, so I'm running his route and using this bad boy to order the ice cream to keep the locals happy.

#51

Give the public what they ask for.

Sully falls asleep on Grandma.

#50

This monster attacked me this morning.

All citizens of the Republic of Mancunia know it as The Red Devil.

Beware!

#49

Check out this mini-crateresque pothole directly behind our driveway, or the other one near the top of the photo. This is our street, and it's one of the better one's in town.

This winter has been hell on the roads. This hole ain't nothing compared to some around here.

Today was audit day.

I'm the new man in charge of the audit's for my company for the four local Meijer stores and one Super-Target.

So I got this spanking new calculator and clipboard, courtesy the company, and get to go into the stores once a month and count every single thing we've got in there

Jealous?

#47

The boy got a haircut today. No longer a long-haired hippie.

First time I ever got to tell the barber "Give him what I get."

#46

Per my Mother-in-Law's request.

Just hanging out with the boys on a cold night.

Don't ask me what that dorky look on my face is for. Sullivan looks baffled by it too.

#45

Lazy dinner. With all apologies to View From the Cheapseats, this is the laziest dinner you can prepare.

But it's also the best frozen pizza on the market. Seriously. Tastes exactly like a pizzeria style pizza. There are few pizzas out there better than this.

If it's in your grocer's freezer, buy one soon. It's by far the best out there.

#44

Could Spring be on it's way?

At 6:45 pm it was still relatively light out tonight. Oh, the sun she was a-setting. But still light enough to see outside at quarter to seven.

#43

Putting some tranny fluid in the wife's car today.

ATF+4. It's much better than that ATF+3 crap.

#42

Apparently the cat loves the Valentine roses as much as my wife did.

(Saturday photo-sorry for being late).

#41

For the benefit of lawyers in Maine who might be considering a goatee.

Picture your face behind these hairs.

#40

Due to illness, sheer laziness, and a hatred for shaving, I've managed to grow the beginnings of a dandy beard over the last seven days.

I'd love to keep on growing it, but the wife has told me before that she hates facial hair.

She also told me that I have a 70% better chance of getting lucky if I stay clean shaven.

Tomorrow the beard goes.

#39

The rare perks to the job.

Free ice cream!

#38

This is my picture for Tuesday. A day late due to me being sick as a dog.

had the chills bad, so had to get out the old trusted robe to keep me warm.

For those keeping track, this is twice in the last three weeks that I've been as sick as a dog.

Winter sucks.

#37

Temperature is zero, with a windchill below that.

And this idiot's snow blower broke.

Portrait of a unhappy man sick of winter preparing mentally to shovel.

#36

Three degrees today.

Negative fourteen to negative twenty with the wind.

Is it April yet?

#35.3

Can't leave Sullivan out.

This is our boy getting ready for his first attempt at eating rice cereal.

He done good. This one will be our eater.

#35.2

'Round these parts, this is known as "Mean Face" (as in "Show me your Mean Face.")

Mean Face is very cute.

#35.1

I wanna be what you are to me.

(all thanks to Wilco for the line)

#34

Now that is a damn good dinner!

Rib tips, fries, and slaw. Slaw, baby, slaw!

#33

Trust me on this one.

Go rent this movie.

It's brilliant.

#32

This is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

This is the career my oldest boy told me he wishes to pursue when he's older.

Anybody know any good colleges that have a TMNT major?

#31

The boy's first videogame.

Five different games teaching him left & right and shapes and the alphabet.

Let's hope he never graduates to the Guitar Hero obsession.

#30

I won't reveal what goes in here, but I will say it's been six weeks since my vasectomy.

Don't worry, it's not in there yet.

#29

Porn for my wife.

(idea provided by my wife)

#28

Tax time today.

Went and had them done. Big waste of money there. We'll get a nice refund (thanks, boys), but the Block is seriously overcharging these days. Six years ago it was like a hundred bucks total, and today it was double that, even with a coupon.

Oh well, it's done for another year.

#27

Friday night dinner with the family. That's Mom and Mike with the baby.

Yummy Chinese!
