Run or Be Run Over

It’s my month to do devotionals each week for the Christian group at work. Here’s another. For what it’s worth, I like to think that I’m the first person to mention nipple chafing in a devotional.

Spite Joey

An unfortunate part of our human nature is, once we’ve reached a conclusion about someone or something, we tend to seek out evidence to support that conclusion. We easily accept the “reminders” to harbor bad feelings towards someone, but are skeptical toward the things that might dampen that negativity.

A Cry At Night

Late one Christmas night, less than two months before his 3rd birthday, I was overcome with emotion and a strong sadness over Hunter’s condition. The feeling was so strong that it brought me to uncontrollable tears, kept me awake, and ultimately lead me to write the following.

About Hunter – Part 2

When you find out you’re going to have kids, there are certain things you imagine. You imagine your child running, rough-housing, and saying those funny things kids say when they think they understand a concept more than they actually do.

Do You Even Lift?

This is a devotional I wrote for the weekly email for my company’s Christian Diversity Network Association, based on a topic I covered in a previous blog called Superstitianity. In the interest of padding my blog, I am posting a slightly modified version here:     “You shall not take the name of the LORD…

Trolling Amazon

Here are a few comical reviews I have written for products on Amazon. These reviews can still be viewed on Amazon.

I was born with a rare disorder that prevents me from having any basic form of parental intuition. As a result, when my infant began crying, I had no way of determining whether it was due to the fact that I hadn’t fed him in the last 12 hours, the fact that he’d been carrying a full diaper around for the past three days (the diaper box SAYS “for 15 lbs,” but don’t believe it!), or if he was simply bothered by our doomed economy as a result of Obama’s socialist agenda.
