This is the blog that I log when I get a minute at the end of the day to rap and reflect on life as a husband, father of three boys, and striving musician.

If you can't take the heat...
...turn on the ac! Record heat and humidity here in SD. It was 97 yesterday in downtown and the humidity from Sunday's storm left the boys and I boiling! Poor Evan had a heat rash from his helmet and rockstar stupid daddy didn't turn the air on until we were all sweaty messes. Of course I didn't make the same mistake before today became a scorcher but what is going on here? Yesterday was a record high around these parts. I'm not really into the whole global warming debate yet I don't live with my head in the sand. Every major city in the U.S. has broke and rebroke their record highs in the last three years. I was watching the weather channel(yes I am that boring) and the last decade has been one big can of whoop ass that nature is serving us from heat to natural disasters, snowfall and floods, humanity is taking a beating. I guess what i'm driving at is what is in store for the next ten? I'd like to know because yes...I have kids now. Anyone out there care to comment? Am I being paranoid? Don't answer that, of course I am. Paranoia is just animal instinct telling me something might be a bit off in the global balance of things and if it isn't enough that San Diego living is expensive, add kids and a big ac bill...jeez! But there was some killer waves!

I Rockstarized em'
In my former life as a pro waiter/restraunt extraordinaire I had the occasion to serve the likes of the (formerly?) great Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Drew Brees, Ted Waite, the ceo of Gateway, I could keep on going. Once Marie was pregnant though my most interesting clientele became people with kids, especially twins. I was told hundreds of stories, ways, methods on how parents have gone about the business of parenting. I met everyone from a French couple who Furberized their kids to Spanish people who would only teach their twins english(not sure why). I read about the Furber thing, and of course saw "Meet the Fokkers". I have to say though it's been very simple straight ahead rockstar method here. Nothing puts the kabosh on extreme fussiness like hugs, kisses, and a bottle. All with some good blues or maybe Elvis in the background. Marie plays classic country off the cable, also effective, but whatever the occasion calls for ya know. Any thoughts? I mean it's early still but could it be...I know what the hell i'm doing?
