Thea has requested for her birthday that I post this video.  Enjoy.

Relief

July 18, 2008

After three years of waiting for a new Batman movie to come out, I watched The Dark Knight last night with Thea.  I bought tickets to the midnight showing a couple weeks ago.  We showed up about an hour early and the theatre was already full, so we could only find seats together in the [...]

Away… but not really

July 15, 2008

Obviously we still have internet access on our little vacation out here in Prince Edward County.  We’re heading to the beach soon, but Thea’s getting some sort of spa treatment.  So I’m down in the lounge updating the blog.  We took some pics of the bed & breakfast we’re staying at here.
It’s really relaxing.  I [...]

Who knew a baby laughing in slow motion could sound so unholy.

The Bard

July 11, 2008

You’re Fat

We’re at Thea’s parents’ house.  Moments ago, Lola, the grandmother, said to Thea, “You’re fat.”  Now I’m in the basement, absolutely livid.  I came so close to saying something, but somehow was able to relatively keep my cool.  I want to smash her on the head with something.
I don’t understand this part of Filipino culture, [...]

The Dark Knight

July 10, 2008

I’m a little excited about the upcoming Batman flick, The Dark Knight.
I’ve bought tickets for opening night already.  I’ve taken to scouring the internet for reviews and opinions and scoops.  I have to quickly switch sites when Thea walks in because my Batman obsession bothers her.  Which isn’t to say that she suppresses my personality, [...]

Judgment Day

July 9, 2008

When driving I’m more aggressive than I should be, as are many people it seems.  While not a danger to other people, I don’t think, I do have a tendency to focus on getting places as soon as possible rather than enjoying the journey.  And I have to quash the impulse to correct the poor [...]
