Almost Six Years
My wife and I will celebrate the sixth anniversary of our marriage on June 6, 2012. So yes, we were married on 6/6/6 and this is 6 years later. Lots of sixes.
Chris Taylor & Windows
(When I searched Google for “Chris Taylor & Windows” (in quotes), the search engine told me that nothing was found. Perhaps this blog post can correct that.) Chris Taylor was a ridiculously skinny white guy (in that respect, he was very similar to me) that I knew when I lived in South Texas as a[...]
‘Meemaw’ Crews (1916-2010)
Ruby Ruth (Bryant) Crews 1916-2010 (I knew Ruby Crews as “Meemaw” throughout my life; that’s how she signed her letters and cards to me. So that’s how I’ll refer to her here.) What a life! I do not envy the trials and hardships of Meemaw’s life. However, I certainly envy the steadfastness with which she[...]

Nov. 21, 2005
I just finished watching “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” and now I’m listening to The Verve, so you can imagine the weird, introspective mood I’m in. Wondering about the past, pensive about the future, not sure if I should go to sleep just yet. That movie reminds me of my paranoid days (the 1990s)[...]
Childhood Quiz
I’m going to clean house, today and tomorrow, in preparation for my vacation. And I’m going to practice with my new camera. :-) And, hopefully, I’m going to talk to my wonderful, beautiful, intelligent friend on the phone, at some point. :-D Childhood quiz 1. My favorite toy was: Legos 2. Some other great toys[...]
15 Years
I just realized, this very day, that this year will be my FIFTEENTH year out of high school. I know, I graduated when some of you were three years old. It makes me tired, and … well, not quite sad. I would be sad, if these 15 years hadn’t been so productive. I’ve wasted a[...]
Subconsious Heartburn
She writes every day, and I never knew it. Never knew that there were other words besides the ones I see and produce. And there are others, trillions more every day that slip by me. But only a few will turn my heart, wake my poetic consciousness, tickle my brain. Only a few, like her,[...]

Well, it’s only a few days before Dad & Zane are scheduled to come to Arkansas and pick me up, and I’m really feeling it. I keep looking at everything around me in a new light. I want to remember all of this. That’s what’s messsed up about life, in my case. Once a moment[...]

- 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[...]

(Copyright © 2013 by Wil C. Fry. All rights reserved.) Today, Rebecca — for the first time — went to the bathroom somewhere besides our house.

- 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[...]

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[...]
