The Last Night
The night before Marline arrived, the house was still, and creaking My tired heart, from years of loneliness Felt like screaming or shrieking Everything has been cleaned with care In hopes that she wouldn’t have to clean once she got there. Okay, I’m too tired to write the rest of this poem. It was a[...]
One Day Left
She Gets Here TOMORROW! I remember thinking that the day would never come when I could say that. I remember thinking, “Two and a half months is a LONG time.” And it felt like it lasted forever, even when I wasn’t thinking about it. In the past 75 or so days, I’ve written about 200[...]
Just Two Days
Can it really be… ONLY TWO DAYS LEFT UNTIL MARLINE ARRIVES? Yep, it’s only two days until Marline gets here! All her bags are packed, and she’s ready to go. Soon, she’ll be standin’ here outside my door. Wednesday morning, she’ll be waking up to say goodbye to her apartment for the last time. She’ll[...]
Three Days Left
My bubble of happiness has been growing every more swollen by the day, though I’m trying to hold it in check. Anyone who’s been a friend to Marline, whether in real life or on the internet, cannot help but grow happier in her presence. Fortunately, I’m the man that she picked, out of the billions[...]

As you may have figured out… ONLY FOUR DAYS LEFT UNTIL MARLINE ARRIVES! Wow. Friday was particularly grueling at work. Not only did I fill the four pages for Friday’s paper, but I (and the rest of the news staff) stayed four or so hours late to fill pages for Sunday’s paper.

Just FIVE Days Left Until Marline Arrives! With just five days left, time is of the essence. I get one more paycheck as a bachelor, and I’ve been advised to spend it all on hookers and drugs. But I won’t. That’s because it’s Marline’s money too. I’m working on a couple of feature stories for[...]

You guessed it! SIX Days Until Marline Arrives!

I was right. Taylor won it. And he should have. Last night, he outsang the girl six ways from Sunday. Anyway, that’s my take on it.

➤ A couple of nights ago, Rebecca woke up crying about 2 a.m. My wife heard it, rushed in. RLF said she needed to go to the bathroom. MF took her; RLF did. Then RLF went back to sleep. (I didn’t wake up. Noises will prevent me from falling asleep, but very little will wake[...]
- May 18, 2013: More Hotter by Wil C. Fry
After a cooler than average spring, yesterday was the hottest day of the year (high: 92°F) until today’s record high of 96°F. Had a pretty good day with Rebecca (scroll down for photos).

Rebecca did well with potty again today — still working on #2. After an early, short, and surprising nap (she put herself down at 11:50 for just an hour), much of the afternoon was full of fussing and craziness. I got a new debit card today, to replace the old one that was cracking and[...]

- May 14: Ikea & 34 Weeks by Wil C. Fry
A few days ago, we passed what I’ve jokingly called “the Rebecca threshold” with our Benjamin pregnancy. She was born about 7 weeks before her due date. As of May 10, we passed that point in the current pregnancy. My wife’s at 34 weeks as of today, and about nine pounds lighter than she was[...]

- May 12, 2013: Dry All Day by Wil C. Fry
Rebecca woke with a dry diaper this morning and kept her panties dry all day, using her potty correctly all day. We spent the day shifting from (1) us asking if she needed to go to (2) her telling us when she needed to go. And, after three days of holding it, she went #2[...]
- May 11, 2013: Dry All Day by Wil C. Fry
Rebecca kept her diaper dry all morning, while MF was at work, and then wore panties the rest of the day, keeping them dry too. She even surprised us by staying dry during a supper trip to Dairy Queen (she had requested an ice cream cone). We put a diaper on her for the trip[...]

Big Milestone: Rebecca is now Three Feet Tall. Not quite tall enough for the WNBA, but on her way. She also crossed the 27-pound threshold for the first time (that we know of; we haven’t weighed her in a while). She’s 2.58 years (31 months) old. Compared to me: My mother didn’t record my height[...]
