Daily Life 009: Ultimate Alliance

September 21, 2009 - Daily Life 009: Ultimate Alliance

This weekend Justin brought over Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2. Soooo much fun. I found myself thinking about the wreckage we created on the city streets of Latveria, and the super laser awesome combo moves often today while I was at work.

I started keeping track of my life with the girls in 2009, in a series of illustrated status updates called "Daily Life"...As I finish up collecting some of these stories for print books, and catch up on some freelance work, I thought it would be a good time to post some of these older stories, so that everything is collected here on the blog. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have. :)

Daily Life 008: Waiting

September 14, 2009 - Daily Life 008: Waiting

Amy had a meeting and a conference after work today, so Abby and I sat outside and waited for her. Part of the time we spent just hanging out, watching the cars and peoples go by, and drinking milk. The rest of the time we spent playing with toys out of her satchel. She's not really even talking yet, and still she seems more grown up every day...

Daily Life 007: Kicked Out

September 07, 2009 - Daily Life 007: Kicked Out

I got kicked out of the garage this weekend... After accidentally calling Theresa, Crystal. Twice. Just to make sure that I understood just what was being asked of me, Crystal walked out to demonstrate EXACTLY how I should stand and also what expression I should carry. No standing meekly facing the corner for me. No Sir! Stand outside of the garage looking humbly in at the comfy chairs, the warm pipe and hot coffee. Listening to the laughter (product of stimulating and intelligent conversation) with out being able to join in. No Warioware on the Game Cube... Just tears and shame. That's what I was supposed to do...
