Just before getting (literally) pulled up out of bed this morning, I flashed back to the time when I saw the movie Amadeus at the Millbrae Theater. I don’t know if it was the time of the year that it was showing — either near Thanksgiving or Christmas — or maybe it was the fact [...]

Working as a caregiver for ALS Boy Enterprises, LLC has quite a bit of down time.

There we were, a few friends sitting together, shooting the breeze, and watching a movie on a premium cable channel when friend #2 silently excused himself. A good ten minutes passed before he emerged from the room down the hall immediately engaging in a hushed dialogue with my dad. The off-duty Italian-American Man Servant shook [...]

I have wanted to participate in a flash mob since before they got popular.

Hi Mama and Daddy- Just in case you couldn’t tell who is typing this, it’s your daughter, Emma. If Daddy was careless enough to leave his laptop open on the table near my highchair, why shouldn’t I take advantage of the opportunity to set the record straight?

I read a note on facebook the other day which was posted by my friend Clarece. It was a list of 25 random things about her. After I finished reading her list, I decided to compose one of my own. I initially published it on facebook but then I figured, hey, why not post it [...]
