My mom informed me that her biological father had thinning hair. I never met him. My mom barely even knew the guy. I guess now I know who to blame. My wife told me it doesn’t matter what my hair looks like, she still loves me. That was reassuring. I always assumed she only loved me for my GQ looks. 😜

Uh oh, Mosquito!
So, it seems like we are now in the thick of prime mosquito season. Historically, I would get bit by a mosquito, smash it, and move on. The itching would start usually later that day and would continue until I scratched the bite open, it would bleed, scab over, and then heal. It has been […]
