What started out as a sympathy-sobriety for Megan's… uh… situation… has inspired me to do more. I can't make any promises, because quitting things is hard; but my goal is to give up the drink for good. And I'm making some good progress so far. I will have been 2 weeks sober tomorrow — Saturday.

I figure that I have enough medical problems as-is; I don't need to knowingly put more of my body at risk. I wouldn't bake in the sun without sunscreen or smoke cigarettes, so why should I tempt my liver?

Here's to taking care of yourself! 

The next seven days will be rife with temptation. I am helping to run an unconference in Philly today (with a happy hour afterward); and next week I'll be out of town for a 3 day ColdFusion conference (which is just shy of a 3-day happy hour). I predict that my Diet Coke intake will be through the roof.

Here are a few videos I took recently.

Dylan wanted to visit our friends/neighbor's dog, Bode (pronounced "Bow-dee"), but he says it like "boo-jee" which I think is adorable, so I tried to record it. Of course, he wanted to see what was on screen, so it was a constant struggle to keep him in front of the camera.

We went to a wedding last weekend. The bartenders were kind of funny, and this was a funny gadget they had on-hand.

From the same wedding, here's the elvis impersonator. Every wedding needs an Elvis impersonator. The worse, the better.

Also, I got my picture taken with him after the show! (Thanks to Ben and his girlfriend Rachael for the photo!)

I think that all Elvis Impersonators, like all ships captains (which is actually a myth), should be able to perform marriages. How awesome would that be?

Megan is pregnant. (Again)
