Stormageddon Arriveth
Evelyn Isabelle Sweeny was born on 31 May 2015 at the very easy to remember 2:22PM. She weighed 6lb, 15oz and was 19.5 inches long.
We’re home from the hospital today and apart from the usual lack of sleep we couldn’t be happier.
Like her parents, she does not like being photographed.
Stormageddon Approacheth
Emily and I are very excited to announce that we are expecting our first child in May of 2015!
Until we know more our code name for the kid is Stormageddon, Dark Lord (or Lady) of All:
Spiders From Mars
On Saturday as Emily and I were visiting one of her childhood friends in Ferndale, MI (and a nasty batch of food poisoning was gestating in my gut unbeknownst to me) we stopped in a little record shop called “Found Sound” because it looked cool and I had a thought to replace the warped copy of Ziggy Stardust that I’d inherited from my parents. No such luck, but I did find something literally almost as good:
It turns out that David Bowie’s actual backing band from that album released another album on their own before calling it quits. The best part is, it was only a dollar and it’s actually pretty good. Still looking to replace that copy of Ziggy though…
Culinary Auditory Variety
When sharing cooking duties with your spouse, it’s important to assert control over the stereo quickly, because how many times can you listen to the same Tegan and Sara* album while making meat loaf?
As a side note, Audioslave may be the perfect background music to making meat loaf.
* I don’t mind Tegan and Sara, but seriously it’s always the same album
Duel to the Caffienated Death
One of my Christmas gifts this year was a LEGO-compatible coffee mug. I can see myself having a lot of fun with this.
On establishing boundaries
“‘What’s mine is yours’ doesn’t extend to my Star Trek coffee mug.”
– me to my wife, as it is important to set boundaries in any relationship.
Everyday I’m Noodlin’
Emily and I went to Everyday Noodles in Squirrel Hill for dinner this evening. We were lucky enough to sit by the window into the kitchen and see how the sausage noodles are made.
