Oneirodynia [o·nei·ro·dyn·i·a (o-ni'ro-din'e-?)] n. Intense mental disturbance or distress associated with dreaming. I don't remember having a lot of bad dreams. In fact, now that I think about it, no nightmares stick out in my mind. That could possibly be due to me lacking a hippocampus but that hasn't been proven so at this point, it's just a ...
Today was a ridiculously productive day for me. Some would like to attribute it to the fact I started on my ADD meds again but since I'm only at 12mg at the moment, I like to attribute it to my general awesomeness. At any rate, I sat down for a breather and Cara jumped in front of ...
At night, about an hour before I plan on going to bed...or whatever, I go outside and read. The kids are in bed, Tucker's usually watching his YouTube channels and that time alone is my way of decompressing from the day. Last night I came in to get some more peach tea to find Ollie with his ...

These are their favorite ...

TJ Consunji announced just a bit ago on the Playstation blog that Killzone 3 Multiplayer Beta is officially ready for US download. From some recent whispers I've read on Twitter--if you can whisper whilst on Twitter--Killzone 3 Multiplayer could be a COD killer...though I'm not convinced on that one. Download the Beta via the PSN and know ...

While I was at Blissdom last week, Mom kept the kids. The one thing Cara wanted in the entire world was to go see the movie Rapunzel; I suspect she identified with Rapunzel's blonde hair. On one of our Skype calls, Cara showed me the Rapunzel dress-up outfit Mom had bought for her and the amount of pride ...
Once upon a time, there was a boy who joined the Navy. Now this boy wasn't content with just "regular" Navy; this boy wanted high-speed, super cool Navy and what could be cooler than bombs?! Luckily, the boy decided it was no fun to be cold and wet and he quit the Navy's EOD program. The boy's ...
