I know gas prices vary from station to station, and from town to town, but THIS MUCH? Today, as Marline and I drove to Oklahoma City ( see her picture here ), we began noticing the difference. It’s still $2.799 per gallon in Seminole, but only $2.459 per gallon in OKC. That’s 34 cents difference,[...]
Marline has a new car… (All photos Copyright © 2006 by Wil C. Fry. All rights reserved.) We’re pretty excited about the purchase, and can’t wait to put the car through it’s paces. It’s a 1991 Buick Park Avenue, Marline’s first-ever automobile. After the purchase, we bought several items to keep in the trunk, like[...]
Now that I’m finished with the Football Preview, Marline and I are car shopping. We’ll let you know what happens.
(Note: Cassie, go HERE for Shari and Bobby’s pictures.) This evening, at about 8 p.m., I finished the 2006 Football Preview for Seminole County, right on time. Let me break down for you what all this entails. It’s an annual 24-page special section that’s inserted into the newspaper the Sunday before the first football games[...]
(Note: Cassie, I can get on your site just fine, and I can type a comment. But the comment won’t publish. At all. I just don’t know.) I HAVE A NEW NIECE! My sister gave birth to Elisabeth Anne Morrow yesterday morning, in Abilene, Texas. I’ve seen a few pics on my brother-in-law’s Flickr account.[...]
I’m still working on the 2006 Football Preview for our county teams. I think I’ve done 99 percent of the legwork, though. I’ve taken all the team photos, and I have individual shots for nearly every player in the county. I’ve interviewed all six coaches, and attended at least two practices of every team (plus[...]
Remember, back on May 15 and May 16, a few weeks before Marline arrived here, I posted a list of possible issues that Marline and I would face as a married couple. One was a longer list , and the other was a more specific focus on racial issues . That was three months ago.[...]
I can’t believe it’s been four days since I’ve blogged! I think this is the first time I’ve gone that long since my friend Juanna invited me to see her blog in February of 2005. Since then, I’ve been on here almost every day. Anyway, I’ve been crazy-busy with sports lately. All the schools in[...]
Click here to read about the stupidity of air conditioning. Great convenience, but it’s actually adding to the problem. My dad told me about this years ago, but I think we’ve reached the point where there’s little that the average person can do about it. At over 100 degrees each day, it’s nearly impossible to[...]
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[...]

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[...]

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[...]
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[...]
I woke up early today (because I went to bed on time last night?) and thought that would give me a little more time before RLF awoke. No — her new waking cycle is somehow tied to mine. Perhaps she hears the coffee-maker — I think I’m otherwise very quiet when I get up. She[...]
