Young Ones

Surprise.

A blog.

S'ben a while, no? How have you been?? Good, yes?

Good, well, moving along...

I missed the entire month of June without a single post and I dang near missed July, but I thought I'd better put some effort into this here webpage, lest my readers grow upset with me and hate me. So if you've been checking this daily seething in disappointment every time you were greeted by the same inspiring video, I'm sorry. But only a little sorry, because it's a good video.

So today's magic word is: babies.


Currently babies = life, and I don't see that changing for a couple decades. But despite the loss of all things autonomous, I've enjoyed the dickens out of fatherhood. I'm really surprised by this because I remember dragging my feet when it came to shopping and filling our house with baby goods. All I knew is that I didn't want to suffer the fate of all the other unsuspecting parents who end up with the living room looking like a Fisher-Price garage sale. But after having the youngsters for several months, I've grown ok with it. Nay, I enjoy it. Anything that makes them happy, makes me happy. It's like having kids make you skip from cool mr.never-act-a-fool to sentimental mr.cheesy-parental. (Did you like that rhymery? It took me way too long to come up with.)

I swear every stupid little thing they do, excluding emesis and excrement, melts my innards. I hardly even call them by their real names. Instead they've become every derivative of wittle punkins or muff'ns. But seriously, can you think of words more fitting? I cannot.


But now I'm in a real pickle because I don't want this to become another sappy blog about my kids, but they've dang near absorbed every spare corner of my life, and I am really stretching to conjure up other blog topics. And since I've been out of school, I don't even have the time to sort through oodles of music whilst I do my homework. *Sniffles* I guess I should be glad that the homework part is done I guess. Even this playlist I made way back when. Its dope, no?? What, you turned it off? That's it, I'm done here.

Addendum: accepted.

Pleasant surprise today, Radiohead emailed me. They just wanted to say thanks for buying their last album, and were like, "oh by the way, here are a couple bonus songs that we couldn't make fit on the album." That's what I call quality follow up.

I'm not sure why they didn't put them on the King of Limbs, they seem to fit in my opinion, but hey, they make their own rules these days. What's amazing is that these aren't b-side quality tracks, they're just as good as the rest of the album.





Also, you may say its unrelated, but I just have to include a couple of my new favorite things...

Unbelievable.

Welcome to the universe, Sam and Eden.

For your information...

My wife was sonogramed today, and it appears to be official. Bethany is with children.
She's 10 weeks deep, and sick as ever.
