I am a skeptic. I like to believe that everything is explainable.Deb and I tried a little test. Guess what the other person drew, without seeing. 4 colors (red, blue, black, green). 4 shapes (triangle, circle, star, heart)
try 1: Deb tries to guess what I drew. Doesn’t get anything.

I passed over into the living room to find my three girls sleeping soundly. It was heart warming. There is nothing more beautiful than your wife and kids sleeping quietly while you watch a movie on your Macbook and drink beer. Tis the season.

I have the freakin’ house to myself. I mention this simply because I NEVER have the house to myself. So I am sitting here drinking a few glasses of red wine, contemplating… actually I am just sitting here. I am not quite sure what I am contemplating.
