In less than a week, I will be 36 years old. So I've had a lot of opportunities to celebrate my birthday. 35, so far, to be exact. Now, I won't go into the details of all of those birthday parties. Mostly because I just don't remember them all. But here are the ones that … Continue reading The Top 6 Birthday Parties of My Life

Binging Parenthood
Did I type that right? When you binge watch something, are you binging the show? Because that looks like it should be pronounced bing-ing. Like Googling, except you, for some reason, use Bing. Why you'd do that to yourself, I don't know. But what I want you to hear in your head when you read … Continue reading Binging Parenthood
Dropper
Hello. My name is Aaron... and I'm a dropper. It's only been a few hours since I last dropped something. This morning as I reached into the drawer for a pair of socks, as soon as I picked them up, I dropped them on the floor. I swore under my breath as I bent down … Continue reading Dropper
Now Trending
There's a trend on Facebook. Well, I don't know that you can call it a trend when it's been going on for years. But it's a trend that I find slightly annoying. And it's entirely possible that I'm the only one it annoys because I think I'm the only one who hasn't jumped on the … Continue reading Now Trending
No Shave November
I realize that title will be a little misleading. I did not participate in any sort of "No Shave November" event. I also did not participate in "Movember" to raise awareness for anything. So I apologize who just clicked on my blog thinking you were getting a riveting tale of raising money and/or awareness for … Continue reading No Shave November
Day Thirty
A Dream for the Future This seems really similar to yesterday's post. As I mentioned before, I'm not really one to plan for the future. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. And, while I don't necessarily think of myself as a pessimist, I'm definitely not an optimist. I joke around with … Continue reading Day Thirty
Day Twenty Seven
My Worst Habit I would say that one of my worst habits would be that nasty habit I have of pushing people away. It's something I recognize in myself and talk about on this blog all the time. Yet, for some reason, it's one of those things that I have a very difficult time changing … Continue reading Day Twenty Seven
Question of the Week #39
Do your close friends tend to be older or younger than you? All right, I've done the math. Looking at my Christmas list, excluding blood relations, the median age of my closest friends is 29.4 years of age. Which is approximately 6 years younger than me. So I'm gonna say that the correct answer to … Continue reading Question of the Week #39
The Single Guy and the Facebook Friend
The following is inspired by actual events which occurred a number of years ago... The Hostess accepted the Single Guy's friendship on Facebook. For a few days after he initially tried to add her, the Single Guy was a little afraid that he had crossed some kind of line, that he would never see or … Continue reading The Single Guy and the Facebook Friend
Capture the Flag
Remember that retreat I went on a couple weeks ago? I mentioned that we played Capture the Flag as part of our weekend festivities. Yesterday, I posted a picture of myself that was taken after that game, when I was pretty much declared the MVP. But I haven't explained, in detail, why someone with no … Continue reading Capture the Flag
