One of Dominic’s favorite pastimes is watching the garbage truck make its rounds. Every Tuesday and Friday morning he eagerly waits for the sounds and anxiously screams “truck” until someone takes him out front to watch the garbage guys do their thing. Dominic shares this interest with our neighbor’s boy, Brayden, who’s just a few […]

PC2 on nationally syndicated radio today
0Today I stumbled upon an opportunity as managing editor of Blogging Vegas. I wrote a short story about the NBA referee who’s being investigated by the FBI for betting on games he was refereeing. What a sad story. Glad I’m not the crisis manager for the NBA. About 20 minutes later the Blogging Vegas phone […]
Happy birthday Sir Tank Thunderpaw
1Today is Tank’s fifth birthday. He celebrated with the usual Sunday routine, chillin’ in his crate for most of the day while we were at church and the Coglianese home for dinner. He did get to run around the neighborhood tonight after dinner, once it had cooled to a reasonable temperature (around 100). I put […]
A trip to Kwik-e Mart and 110 in the Shade
0Tonight I went for my standard three mile jog on the city jogging path. It’s ‘standard’ because that’s the route I take, not because it happens with regular frequency. Does the title of the 1960s Broadway show, and recent revival, 110 in the Shade mean anything to you? Let’s just say it’s hot, even at […]
Doctor, Doctor Give Me The News
1Since I failed to take Dominic to the doctor for his 18 month check-up, I decided I better not miss his two year-old visit to the doctor. It was your typical visit. We arrived on time and left nearly two and a half hours later. It wasn’t all that unpleasant, but took a huge chunk […]
Little swimmer
0Dominic has pretty much figured out that you can’t breathe under water. He has also figured out how to motor his way around the pool using his legs and arms. And just try to tell him not to jump in the pool, I dare you. He’s certainly a handful at the pool and requires constant […]
Play time
0Since Dominic’s birthday party last Saturday he has been in heaven with his new trucks and toys. Here are a few photos. And here’s a good summertime photo of Dominic enjoying a slice of watermelon.
Sleep falling without a binky
0Perhaps it’s the fact that for his two-year birthday Dominic got a big boy bed and lost the privilege of sucking on a binky the same night. Or perhaps he was really ready to give it up. Whatever the reason, he hasn’t really missed the b-i-n-k-y (we have to spell it out so he doesn’t […]
Happy Birthday Dominic
0So today was the big number two for Dominic, 7/7/07, the luckiest day of the century. The morning was full of activity as we prepared for his birthday party. He even got to go shopping with Grandma Snow who of course treated him to some extra special gifts, and some for Eliana too. We welcomed […]
