So…I wasn’t going to mention this because I knew you would all make fun of me be jealous, but I couldn’t hold it in…I am going to see DJ PAULY D with my friend tonight. I know…I’m living the life you all wish you had!
Don’t worry, she bought the tickets and I am chalking this up to an epic night of blog-worthy pics, stories, etc!

So, I got this email today from my Aunt…she and my Uncle (my dad’s brother and sister) want to come out to see my Dad, which is great, but when I read this email, I was all…REALLY?!?!?
Hi, Bridget, Thank you for keeping us in the loop. I called yesterday and talked to Miriam for a minute and then to Bob. Bob said the same sentence to me 3 times at a very slow drawl looking for...

I’m not totally sure I am ready to make this post, but I guess there is no time like the present! So, here goes…
Yesterday was my Dad’s appointment for an MRI and a follow up with his team. I wish I had better news to report, but it looks like the cancer is progressing. We knew this could certainly be a possibility, so we were not completely surprised by it…who am I...

Tonight I saw The King’s Speech with the ‘rents. All I can say is…GO SEE IT! It was so well done and obviously well acted. Colin Firth was amazing as a man with a severe “stammer” who would become a King. I’m not a huge HBC fan (I know, I know…I’m becoming one), but she was incredible! She had a relatively subtle part, which is to say that most of...

Dear Bigots, Prop 8 Supporters, etc.,
yellowonesdontstop:
Here is your greatest nightmare, your biggest fear. This is the supposed end to the sanctimony of the institution of marriage. This, right here: My wife and I got married on January 7, 2011 in Connecticut where it is legal to do so. The fact that I have to even clarify that my marriage is legal is completely asinine to me. The fact that we had fewer than ten states where...

He's eating!
My dad made a pretty good leap yesterday after being on his new meds for about 24 hours. He ate a ton (in comparison) of food yesterday and never complained once about eating or drinking! He was also talking A LOT more! It was so nice to see some life back in his face!
It’s absolutely amazing how much we take for granted until we see it fading away! I guess it’s just part of life, but...

Dad Update 2011
I haven’t updated in a while, but with the holidays, etc. I thought I would pretend this wasn’t happening…take a break.
In early December more spots were found on my dad’s brain. He went through a pretty rigorous full brain radiation treatment that lasted for 2 weeks, from December 17th to the 31st. He did really well the first week or so before it all hit him. He was very...
