Here’s a rule I recommend. Never practice two vices at once.

A while back I wrote about my Sumo Omni Chair. Unfortunately for me, that chair has since been stolen by my daughter. She jumps, plays, and sleeps in the chair all the time. Because that chair had more or less been stolen from me a while back I was very happy when I recently got [...]

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense to explain to my daughter that Santa Claus is simply a mascot for the holiday, [...]

Recently I have been dealing with some very frustrating health issues. I’m not a fan of going to the doctor and usually put it off as long as I’m able, but after being harassed by family and friends for a while I finally decided to go to the doctor to get checked out. After my [...]
