Mini-Me is ONE YEAR OLD Today!

It really has gone fast. I never intended this blog to be much, much less a "daddy blog" but that seems to be all I post anymore*. I guess that's just what happens when you become a parent, and you kid becomes the center of life. It's all that and more fun than it sounds.

Happy Birthday e.Baby!

*And, after calling out a friend's blog for not posting, a recent flourish of posts has me behind.

Why yes, I have been under a rock.

[Apologies to everyone over the age of 37, or anyone routinely referred to as "mom."]

This past weekend while celebrating Alpha's birthday with food and fake sport (Hubig's Pies & Bocce); a couple of friends were talking about a short from SNL called Dick in a Box. It sounded really funny, and apparently won an Emmy or something.

So, last night we looked it up on the You Tubes. It was as funny and clever as advertised. It also originally aired in December 2006. We just heard about it, despite the according to Wiki over 33 million people have watched the clip on You Tube. Also, if you haven't seen it, do take the time to watch My Box in a Box, too. It's a parody of a parody and who doesn't love that? But, you've probably already seen that too.

Like I said, I've been under a rock. The rock just started walking and she turns 1 year old on Monday. The trade-off of being a year behind on pop-culture has been worth it.
