Celebrating fathers day in the traditional fashion. Dragging a child to a home improvement store to get supplies for a simple diy project that'll take me at least 6 months to accomplish. Happy fathers day.

We feed you. They hunt us.

Maybe it's wish casting, but it's kinda crazy to see how the immigration stuff is radicalizing people. My train has never said anything political to me. Today unprompted he said "fuck ICE".

After attending the first @splitzoneduo.com live show nearly 2 years ago I thought I'd immediately lost the coozies from it. Guess I haven't worn these shorts since that night, cuz look what I just pulled from the back pocket

Man the language assessment of kiddo 1 contained 0 surprises, and lots of positive stuff about her. But it still feels like a gut punch hanving professionally confirmed the issues with her speech. And how they're impacting her behavior and confidence. Talking it way harder than I probably should.

Legit thought this was a shirt for Illinois football at first glance.

Kiddo 1 has started asking for Sandstorm by name when she wants "crazy music" to dance to. My only concern is we may be putting her on the path to Gamecock fandom.

How in God's name is there no salt in my employers lunch room? We're a goddamn spice company. They're gonna make me go downstairs and buy my own fucking grinder the assholes.

Wait. The Lions tour this summer isn't going to be on Peacock? Or NBC Sports? Am I going to have to subscribe to fucking Flo for the summer? Any thoughts @andrew.mcguiregis.com? What's your plan?

I may have a chance to get some more Andor in. Because my wife is in the ER with the UTI that refuses to die.

Discovering kiddo 1 likes Peruvian chicken has been a coup. Unlocked a whole new set of restaurants we can get a quick dinner at. Plus they're fucking delicious.

Guys. This is Cornell. Never underestimate their ability to lose the men's lax natty. If any team can still fuck it up it's them.

Men's lacrosse has many cultural issues. Like. Like. Yeah. You know. But the one affecting me most right now is that I'm forced to root for an Ivy in the NCAA tourney. Thank God at least it's just Cornell.

So the friends of the HS boy who works at this froyo place coming in, gently ribbing him, and eating their body weight in froyo is just about the most adorable thing ever.

Brining two sirge protectors whenever we stay in a hotel remains undefeated. A truly great dad move. Maybe surpassed only by having an always packed bag of chargers and cords for when we travel. Which yes includes the aforementioned power strips.

Kiddo 1's take on DC this far has been that there are "soooooo many ice cream trucks"

All Blacks hat with a BYU shirt is a very specific outfit, and I'm not totally sure what it means.

The ac vent being right by where I stash my sandals makes for a nice refreshing experience when I put them on in the summer.

I was blissfully enjoying a dad nap(on couch with low vol sports on TV) when kiddo one burst out of her room to say she needed to poop. Helped her with that, then sent her back to her room to finish her quiet time. So now do I try to recapture dad nap magic, or eat left over Chinese food?
