Wow. My sports season is about to kick off full blast. There’s no busier time for a sports photographer/writer in Seminole County than during high school basketball season. Up until last week, only four schools have been playing basketball: Varnum, New Lima, Strother, and Butner.
Over the weekend, Marline and I got to visit with my family at my parents’ house. Of course, there will be more of us there for Thanksgiving, but my one sister Shari and her family won’t be there, since they’re going to visit her husband’s family for the holiday. So, we had a wonderful Saturday[...]
DUAL MONITORS I’ve read so many articles and blogs about people increasing their productivity by having two monitors hooked up to their computer, that I decided I had to try it. Besides, all the pagination people at work have two monitors. (“Pagination,” for the uninitiated, is the process of placing items on a page, which[...]
I’m just going to bitch and moan for a moment, since that’s my right as a citizen of the United States of America. As it happens, I’m also a taxpayer, a voter, and a legal resident of the city of Seminole, Oklahoma (in Seminole County). In last night’s election, to be honest, I really didn’t[...]

Well, Carol, here it is — my weekly update. We just had a heck of a week at work — my boss was on vacation, as she always is the week before an election. Our newspaper was stuffed full of political ads, which made it bigger than usual. Sunday’s newspaper was 44 pages — the[...]
This video is is cuter without sound (I forgot to mute the TV before recording). Rebecca was proud that she drinks out of a glass now, without spilling: (Copyright © 2013 by Wil C. Fry. All rights reserved.)
Flickr did their biggest change ever this evening. There’s a little more about that on my other blog. I’m seriously considering ending my eight-year relationship with Flickr. If only there were another decent place to share photos (and remember, I said “decent”, so no one suggest Facebook). Rebecca worked on learning my limits again today.[...]
WEATHER: 72-93°F, mostly cloudy RLF requested the playground today, after a few weeks of not going, so I said okay. She wouldn’t walk there; only rode in the stroller. And only played there for about five minutes before she was ready to come home. (This is why we’d quit going in the first place.) She[...]
➤ 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[...]
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[...]
