Because I am a true renaissance man, sensitive and unafraid to work on his marital relationship, I’m in the process of reading and digging up a few books on the topic for review and discussion here. While I hope to begin our conversation on the first book in the next week or so, I’d love […]

Marriage Quotes: #4 & #5

Happy marriages begin when we marry the ones we love, and they blossom when we love the ones we marry.
Tom Mullen
The formula for a happy marriage? It’s the same as the one for living in California: when you find a fault, don’t dwell on it.

One of these things is not like the other…

(Pardon me while I take a slight diversion from our strict diet of marriage and nibble on a soupçon of parenting. Seeing as how Kerri and I are both married to one another and parents to the adorable brood pictured below, you can’t really have expected to get away from here without some mention of […]

There’s going to be a tagging!!!

We’ve been tagged by Tracee Sioux of our sister b5media blog, BlogFabulous. It’s a “seven random things about us” kinda thing, so here goes:

Who’s your momma?

One of my biggest pet peeves is to be with a couple and to hear one person speak to the other like a child. Now, certainly there are a number of behaviors that can fit this description, and can fall anywhere on the spectrum from mildly annoying to downright abusive. And if it’s […]

HIStory Part 2 - The First Date… Almost

The chapter is alternatively titled, “Why the Baptists Were Probably Right To Ban Card Playing”
Ah, the first date. It’s an amazing thing, ain’t it? Half excitement; half fear; half hormones. Yes, truly the first date has the power to warp even the laws of mathematics. But before we get to our first date, we need […]

Space… The Final Frontier
