The only thing better than having Emma sit next to me on my recliner when we watch Beauty and the Beast or Tangled or Up together while she makes short work of an ice-cold grape popsicle is when she eats fluffy microwave popcorn from an ornately decorative San Francisco Giants souvenir cup from Opening Day [...]

Many thanks to my cousin Nicole Hamilton for taking these amazing photographs. There are absolutely beautiful. Quit your day job now, kid*, because you’re going places. *I am twenty days older than her.
Writing on the Wall

Upon my confirmation of her as my Facebook friend about a week or so ago, I decided to take a look at her profile to see if her face was more recognizable to me than her name was. After flipping through her photos for a few moments, I decided to check out her wall posts. [...]

Once upon a lifetime ago, there was a man who could stave off a cold by sheer force of will. He had the ability to stop that little tickle from taking root in the base of his throat just by using his head to convince his body that it doesn’t have the time or the [...]

It felt as if I was resting most comfortably atop an infinite amount of fluffy cotton puffs. No aches or pains were registering on the radar. My breathing was audibly soundless and completely in control, which was a departure from the newly established status quo these past few nights since I’ve acquired this cold. The [...]

Just when all the technical difficulties got solved, leave it up to me catch a cold. Posts will have to wait until tomorrow to get written. Sorry.

On the occasion of this being the 400th post to my blog, I spent some time wracking my brain to come up with a clever and creative way to celebrate the historic event. When all was (figuratively) said and done, I decided to keep it simple and merely upload a picture. I’m 95% certain that [...]

The moment the camera crapped out on the eye tracking unit on my eye gaze machine I immediately thought about my pants and the fact that I was wearing the wrong ones. (Pause for dramatic effect). Although my current ALS-inspired lifestyle has weaned me off most of my old OCD-type tendencies, some habits are very [...]
Reunited and It Feels So Good

At approximately 5:30 PM last Wednesday afternoon, my link to the outside world decided to up and quit on me. After a year being joined at the iris and pupil, the eye tracker in my eye gaze machine died a warrior’s death while valiantly serving me in the writing of my book. A list of [...]

Just wanted to drop a quick note telling everyone that I am still here. The reason for my recent lack of posts these past few days is due to a busted eye gaze. I’ll elaborate more tomorrow. Happy to be back. Word
