I really need to go to some website to find some...
Let me just click on tumblr first.

What did I need to look up?
Dammit.

It’s still windy, but we’re starting to see white clouds and blue skies above the fast-moving gray clouds.

11PM hurricane update
It is raining. And windy. I am somewhat drunk. I am going to bed.

William is making sure everyone has adequate head protection during the hurricane.

5PM hurricane update
Home from work. Right now light wind and rain in Myrtle Beach. According to the radar, things might be about to get more serious. Just waiting for Amy to get home, then we’ll hunker down with an ample beer supply for the rest of the night.

and now, calm
It’s an interesting thing, being in the outer rain bands. When one’s overhead, it’s like you’re really IN the hurricane. Then it moves on and it’s just a calm, cloudy day. The next one will be here soon, though.

2PM hurricane update
The wind has intensified a little. The rain has intensified significantly. I’d kinda like to go home now. However someone in one of our inland offices, who is apparently oblivious that there’s a HURRICANE here, has just contacted me asking if I can create a layout for him this afternoon. If I don’t get the details of the job by 2:30, he’s going to be waiting until Monday.

A report from the leading edge of the hurricane:
I’m about 35 miles north of Myrtle Beach at the moment. The wind is picking up a little, with a couple gusts around 25mph. A light rain has started falling.
The Pacifier
This week we are in the process of finally getting William to stop using the pacifier. We should’ve done it months ago, and we have attempted it before, but eventually we’ve caved to his pleading.
At least he only gets to have it at night when he goes to bed. But he’s smart. He’ll say that he’s tired and that he needs the pacifier to make him feel better. But no...

TODAY WILLIAM IS THREE YEARS OLD!
I can barely believe it’s been three years already. Prepare for William spam for the rest of the day.
country median speed
I’ll bet that most of you, regardless of whether you live in an urban or rural setting, have driven down a country road where the speed limit is 55 mph. Then you come to a crossroads with a flashing yellow light, or maybe a grocery store next to a little post office, and the speed limit changes to 45, and then back to 55. I drive on such a road every day during my commute.
I usually drive...
William's birthday party was today.
His actual birthday is the 23rd, but who wants to have a party on a Tuesday? Despite the fact that I thought we had decided to never have an outdoor party ever again, the festivities were held in my mother-in-law’s backyard. It was so, so hot. A little thunderstorm blew through at one point, but only served to increase the humidity.
He had a great time and got some cool gifts. Now...

Monday morning hallucinations
You know on the Facebook login page where it says “Facebook helps you connect and share with the people in your life?”
As I was typing my password, I saw it out of the corner of my eye and my brain read it as “Facebook helps you connect and shaveth the people in your life.”

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone.
It’s making me feel all right, despite the technological clusterf**k that’s happening at my office right now.

Icy Hot Guy just closed his door. I’m sure it can’t have anything to do with my playing of Scott Friday’s most recent mixtape.
I claim this land for the art department!
So our company is currently merging with another printing operation. Thankfully, all of their people are moving here. They’re building a big addition onto the building, which is almost finished.
The only people staying down here at this end of the existing building will be the art and prepress departments, which is badass. Icy Hot Man, you’re gone. However, with these new people, and...

Thanks for the golden shower, but,
I’m not really into that.
Potty training has been going well. It’s been over a month since William’s last accident. But tonight his attention must’ve still been on Diego saving Iggy the iguana, instead of making sure he was seated and his “equipment” was behind the shield before he let fly. Daddy and the floor got blasted pretty good.
We’ve come a long...
Jon's stupid question of the night:
“Well yeah, but what do muscle relaxers do?”
