  • Or why you won’t see many pictures of my kids from now on. As a terminally online millennial parent, I have been posting pictures of my kids to the social web since it was invented.

  • Note: I have no idea why I wrote this, or why it ended up being so long. I just started and couldn’t stop myself. Please don’t read this. What the hell are we doing here? Great question. So.

  • OK so maybe not literally the worst year ever, but it absolutely wasn’t the best now was it? Exactly. Any hoot, it being the end of the year of our lord two thousand and twenty-two, I figured I would get on board the year end listicle hype train. So. You’ve been warned. Also an important […]

  • I write a lot in this blog about personal goals. Honestly that’s probably the number one topic of any post on here that doesn’t involve weirdo tech reviews (a few of those are incoming) or my dog being a total weirdo. It got me thinking about a question that I ask myself the day after […]
