Day in the Life of The Man: Reprise

So it's almost two years later - some things have changed, some have stayed the same. Yes, I am still The Man, but this time, I wear a tie and I may be an idiot. I am happily co-habitating with a wonderful gal who deals with my idiosyncrasies, my horrible sense of humor, and my penchant for pushing buttons. The boys are still here - albeit, whinier than ever and in a constant state of starvation (read: on a diet, and up to 25% "less fat"). Big dog is, as I type, at the foot of the bed snoring with all the force of a Cummins Turbo Diesel on a 12% uphill grade. The newest member of the family, Albert, is in his crate, barking menacingly at the sounds of the night.
