So far, nothing weird has happened today, which makes me feel a little better, but more bored. I thrive on adrenaline, but the downside is that I’ve tried most things and so now something really has to be amazing to jar my sensibilities. Anymore, I can’t find a roller coaster that makes me scream or[...]
I (obviously) updated my profile pic, to more accurately reflect who I am & what I do. I have added a couple of baseball pictures to my website, as well as a new snake pic & one of a Black Widow spider (it’s dead — that was the only way I could get the hourglass.)[...]
As usual, I began my holiday weekend with a horrible event. It seems that’s become policy for me. We hurried the paper to press today, so the news crew could get some extra time off for the weekend. We get Mondays off anyway, so an early Sunday paper is the best we can do for[...]
Today saw Seminole County’s second deadly wreck of 2005. It was four miles west of Seminole, on US 270, near the “Twin Bridges,” or New Lima turnoff. As usual, I was there, though I didn’t have to like it. Since our paper doesn’t come out again until Tuesday, I don’t yet have the names, etc
As if it wasn’t bad enough, attending the third day of a murder trial, I spent my lunch break watching firefighters pull two dead folks out of a pickup that crashed two days ago. The murder trial is that of Christina Townsend, accused by prosecutors of causing a 2-year-old girl’s death with scalding water burns.[...]

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[...]
