* For the benefit of straight folks, homophobia is only ever the result of me wearing something “queer,” like a necktie, or whatever, or holding the hand of, kissing, showing affection to my S.O. Otherwise nobody knows, and just stares cause I’m smokin’ hot or whatevs.
I saw two girls holding hands on a street corner the other day, and it made me ridiculously...

“John 8:3-7: The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women.

I will be sitting on my bum in front of the computer this weekend, secure in the knowledge that he loves me just the way I am.

This is the first Sunday in a long time that I’m getting ready for bed and not feeling hopelessly stressed and anxious. Hell, it’s the first night in a long time I’ve not been despondent. I actually got a lot of school work done. And I had good family time with my wife and the boy. So rather than being overwhelmed about the week ahead, I’m ready to get up in the morning and...
The dangers of being married to a law student
Wife: What are you giggling about?
Me: The Supreme Court.
Wife: Okay. Wait, what?

Took the boy to the neighborhood fall festival and spent a couple of hours outside in the sun. Beautiful October day. I now have a sunburn on my scalp. Thinning hair doesn’t help, but I totally blame my stupid Irish heritage. Now if you’ll excuse me, I believe the whisky is calling me.

Now everyone will think I meant “ransom process” when I meant “random.”
Still no prom date, though.
WatchMath major. Violin prodigy. Geek. Not a terribly interesting interview, but whatevs.
