At some point, I just gave up. When it comes to my car, I used to be a real neat freak. I used to wash and wax, vacuum and Armor-all, and even clean the engine. But now I’m a parent, with two little girls, and I seem to have flat-out given up ...
I’m lovin’ the end of daylight savings time. But not because I like more sunlight in the mornings… For the first time ever, as a father, the end of DST has made my life easier! And how often does that happen? Um… never. As I recently wrote in We are Not Morning People, ...

And another thing… What’s with all the crying?! Yes, it’s another thing no one told me about when I signed up for this gig. As I told you, I didn’t know to get the owners manual like everyone else did when we had our first daughter. And I was too tired to ...
