Another Day At The Races

Posted on February 4, 2008 - Filed Under Road Trippin' | Leave a Comment

After getting absolutely soaked at Fisherman’s Wharf on Saturday, Z and I found a Motel 6 in Oakland that was only $70 with a friendly staff and a great room. They pointed us to a breakfast spot called Nikko’s that seriously rocked as well. Then it was off to the races…

A couple of weeks back I took Z to the racetrack for her very first time. While we were there we learned that on Super Bowl Sunday they would be having 8 drawings…

Rainy Evening At Fisherman’s Wharf

Posted on February 4, 2008 - Filed Under Road Trippin' | Leave a Comment

Saturday afternoon Z had a memorial service to attend, so our weekend got a late start. Without any real plan, we headed north on 280 and cut over to PCH (Highway 1) via Highway 92. The section of PCH between Half Moon Bay and San Francisco has now been checked off Z’s list of highways traveled. Unfortunately we didn’t really stop at any of the nifty sites along the way as Z still hasn’t learned to speak up and ask…

I’m just calling to let you know I won’t be coming over this weekend.

Okay…

Alright. Luv you.

Bye.

Sure Christmas vacation starts tomorrow afternoon, so there’s no school Friday. Sure I’ve got the legal right to see her for 3 1/2 days each week she’s not in school. Sure Saturday morning breakfast with Z is my favorite time each week, and she’s well aware that its the…

Z’s First eBay Selling Experience

Posted on December 13, 2007 - Filed Under Fatherhood, eBay | Leave a Comment

A couple months back X decided to do some Spring Cleaning (yeah, it was autumn, but this is California :wink: ) so I decided to help clear the clutter by offering to help Z sell a bunch of her stuff on eBay. When Z and I first got back together a couple years back I asked what she enjoyed doing and she replied: scrapbooking. So, we purchased I went shopping for rubber stamps, paper punches, decorative edgers, and general scrapbooking supplies.…

Has it Really Been A Whole Week?

Posted on December 10, 2007 - Filed Under Aahz | Leave a Comment

I came into my Wordpress dashboard to start posting this morning and suddenly realized it had been a full week since I last posted! it surely doesn’t feel like a week has passed, but I guess time does fly when you’re having fun. I actually mentioned the reason for my absence in passing, but didn’t realize I’d be gone so long. The primary motivator was a result of my personal Christmas present. In hunting for excellent Black Friday deals (none…

When Parenting Gets Tough

Posted on November 24, 2007 - Filed Under Fatherhood, Road Trippin' | Leave a Comment

Z and I have had a deal for a little over a month now that in order for her to receive the benefits of all the cool trips and “toys” in the future she would have to earn them. This is because she was becoming spoiled in the literal sense: she honestly felt that she deserved all of the things she was getting simply because she continued to breathe. That’s what she’s essentially been taught for the last 11 years,…
