Kecia and Reese came to visit today. She’s getting so big, and she’s almost crawling which is really neat to see. We took a trip to the Lincoln Museum which is worth the price of admission if you’re in the area — very well put together and informative. Yesterday I got mail from the Illinois High [...]
Not so cute up close. Tonight a bat found its way into my apartment. I have no idea how or why, but all of a sudden I caught a bird-like thing zipping around my dining room out of the corner of my eye. I spent the next 45 minutes watching it fly around and then engaging [...]

I found this awesome new WordPress theme, and Amy insisted that I install it. Thoughts?
So Manny reminded me that it’s been a while since we’ve played a round of Name That Tune. Rules No Googling lyrics, titles, artists, songs, or anything else.
