We have a new game. And Eli is the first baby ever to invent it. If Daddy has him playing in his highchair and he tosses toys to the ground daddy will pick it up. Over and Over and Over. Great new game.

Oh side note, Someone please remind me next time that when your loves child is sick and in the hospital it is bad to say "He is in a better place" instead of "he is in the best place"
Was a bit of an oopps. Didnt want to mention it till he was better.

Well here is a suprise I have once again been misinterpreted. No say it isnt so. Sigh.

So let me repeat once again, with my thank you post I was not try to start a fight withthe mamamatrix or rehasha battle, I was in fact dare I say it, saying thank you. I guess it makes me apreshaite Lauren more and more daily. The mother to my child was one of those people who never heard the good things but always assumed there was a hidden insult in everything I said. And well alot of women are like that I guess. But no I actually ment Thank You.

Sigh, some people just can not accept a compliment. No I did not like the way they acted some of them but damn it all they helped me and Lauren get together and for that I will thank them forever. If they want the thanks or not. They are discussing me under the cover of email so I guess they want it hidden so I wont comment more.

Well last night was a normal work night. I never sleep real well up here but Eli was out like a light. Lauren is sick and I am still short on sleep so we both (I hope) went to bed before midnight for once. Today is gonna be a busy day. Hopefully is the weather does not go to crap Mother and I are going to go house shopping tomarrow. I have not been talking on here alot about the speed things are moving but suffice it to say if all goes well by X-mass Lauren and I and kiddoes should all be together. I am so looking forward and dreading being a house dad. It is going to be damn hard and a strain on me I am sure but I have alot of faith that I can do it and do it well. We shall see if I am full of crap. If I am then I will get a job and we will farm out the kids like the rest of the world does.. But hopefully I will be up to the task. I mean how hard can 5 boys be after one boy?
And yes I left that just to read the comments...

Ok so, sorry been busy today. Going back to work this weekend for the first time in a few weeks. So loads of stuff to get ready and organized. The house is TRASHED still and I think it is gonna stay that way till I get enough time to start packing things. It has hit critical mass I am afraid…Eli is mega needy but that’s ok these weekends I play with him almost nonstop. Ok screw it, I will try and post later on today if I can find time.

Ok well this says it all but I thought I would post it here before I send it off to them. Credit where credit is due....
To TheMamaMatrix (once I find the email to the head fem)

Dear ladies, and I use the term with some caution.

I wanted to drop a note and say thank you. This might sound strange since I still consider a few of you to be close-minded morons but a thank you is in order. To summarize over 2 months ago or so I got attacked and had a lot of nasty things said about me by some of your members. I also had an incredible number of nice things said about me by a few and 2 things ended up being the result.
First off I received 100’s of emails in support of being a single and only father and over 300 letters from women wanting to get to know me better. Though I appreciated them all and a few I still correspond with daily the winner of the giant “Wannabewife hunt 2002” was someone who I had already started corresponding with.
But you as a group were also responsible for introducing me to the person who is now such a major part of my life and hopefully someday might accept me as a husband. She was a member of your group and was so upset with the way I was treated she left the group. That and the bizarre fact we have identical cars was enough to escalate our few emails back and forth and now we are inseparable.
In just over a month we will both be moving from different parts of the county to set up a household together. Combining our children and becoming one happy (and large) family. I can not express how happy I am we are now together, I knew that I would fall in love again someday but that it was able to happen so quickly and with someone who after an average of 120 hours of time on the phone talking a month and a significant amount of in person time our largest argument has still been over if West Wing is the greatest show currently on TV. She is the perfect woman for me and we have the same views on childcare, politics, and almost everything and we have fallen in love.
The end of our “fight” got relatively nasty and for that I do apologize but I still say that the whole issue was handled wrong and a good number of people made up their minds before they even got to know me. I am sorry that I allowed things to escalate as they did but I hope you will have the grace to admit that when you called it quits I tried very hard to have none of the things that could have happened happen. I still believe personally that you have a few women on the Matrix who are man haters and mingled in a few very lonely and sad people and I still think it is a shame you allowed the man haters to control the discussion but it is way water under the bridge.
I still read your site on a regular basis (My GOD if you want to ip ban someone learn how to do it right PLEASE) and I will be very amused to see if you choose to publish this. I have no agenda mind you, and feel free to not even post a link to my site if it would make you feel better but as usual I have nothing to hide, and I did want your group to know that something very good came out of all the hate.
So once again scary as it may be, Thank you ladies you changed my life for the better.

Ok well the stitches are out but still got a long ways to go down the healing street. Walked around the mall for a bit with Mom and got some exercise and new toy for Eli. They had a really cool new RC hovercraft at the discovery store, those kids of ours are gonna be so spoiled, assuming I eventually get bored with all the toys I am gonna by “for them”…
Zach is out of the hospital and doing better and I am wiped out form staying up all night with Lauren but she was dwelling on things so no biggy. The really bad part is she is probably not going to be able to come up and meet mom. Sigh. She was coming in a week but Zach is not gonna be able to fly by then I am afraid.

Soo we are going to have to once again revise our plans. No worries we can handle being apart a little bit longer. Sigh.

I think I might eat something and take a nap. What a plan.

Well the surgery did not go well. Jacko failed me utterly and had no clue what he was doing. We wasted 3 hours on it and nothing is changed. The card is in but I do not think it is even working now. Sigh. Lauren is freaking out cause Zach is being admitted. All in all not a great day.
posted by Chuck Pierce 6:09 PM 13 comments

 
Off to preform surgery.. hope all goes well.

Of course it is gonna take a bit cause first we need some 2x4s and plywood and make a awning so I can carry the TiVo carefully to the car with out it getting wet. Sigh, so rough to be me at times.
posted by Chuck Pierce 1:37 PM 12 comments

 
Ok how do I phrase this, hmmm. Oh I know, I feel like shit.

These antibiotics are eating my insides out, I am STILL swollen and in pain and cant talk. My stitches are coming out tomarrow at what point I am gonna do a freak and foam on the dr cause the pain pills do less than advil.
What else. Hmm oh Eli was a pian in the ass most of the morning and I am getting frantic about most everything. Also I had a loaf of bread expload and make a hell of a mess out of my breadmaker that mostly needs to be soaked in water for a week now. Arrrg.

So fun day so far.

Well tomorrow is the big day. Yes more surgery

But the surgery is way more important. This is going to be surgery on my third most important thing. Yes the TiVO is going under the knife.
We are adding a Ethernet card and the ability to ftp off shows. Why you ask, well so it can update it’s self with out me stealing access to my neighbors phone and more importantly so I can record some of my favorite sows to dvd. I have a plan to put all the news radio’s on Dvd and then tie Lauren down and make her watch em from start to finish. Yes foul torture to some and yet bliss to others. And if the surgery fails and the patient dies the world will cease to be as we know it. My god I am so dependant on the thing now it is scary. I have not seen a commercial in months. I actually missed the whole election, never saw ad 1.
I actually watch very little tv, but damn it is so nice to sit down and have the shows I like waiting for me and no crap tossed in to wait through. Oh and since Eli loves to decide he is hungry/wet/pissed at random intervals I no longer miss things. I am so in love with my TiVO. I am afraid we might eventually have to get Lauren her own cause she aint touching mine. And hell she is the 2nd most important thing… hmm or is she….

Well ok dishes done, kitchen cleaned and baby down.

Lauren is MIA but I am sure she just left her phone in her room or actually crashed for a few hours, poor dear she was up all night I think.

I had no clue I had forgotten to open the Eli pics gallery to the public again, thanks for commenting and telling me folks. Not.. no comments last few days, its been weird.

Well ok what’s next. Oh yea drinking heavily. No I guess not I have inhaled 2 of my precious bottles of Wine Mom brought up in the last week so I guess I am on the wagon for a few more days.

My stitches get yanked on wed, I really can’t wait, at least one is right across the top of my mouth mostly Arrg.

Ok well I am now gonna go roam around and pick on other people. Haven’t done it for a while so why not.

Well Granny sucked today. Had a nice morning even though I hurt like a SOB but then she went to visit friends. Somehow she thought it would be a good idea to come visit with em with out calling. Bad idea. This place is trashed. And I mean trashed. True it is not always spotless to say the least but I have felt like crap and it was total trashed. It was like 90 in here and I was working on a project and Mom with guest comes up the stairs. Growl.
So I was seriously embarrassed at how this place looked. I mean this place is small it does not exactly hide clutter well and when you haven’t done the dishes and have clothes all over the place not to mention are lounging around shirtless it was not pretty.

So granny is in the dog house. Quite amusing actually and very unlike her. If I had had 10 mins warning this place would have looked totally different. Oh well I will get revenge at some point. Now I just have to think whom I can get to drop by her place unannounced.

Well Lauren is hard at work on a new blog template for me. I am going to switch over to MT at some point soon. Only change will be the URL and I will just do a link. Will not be a major change but no reason to do all the publishing and so forth somewhere else when we can do it all here. Should also enable me to offer blog services to other folks like Mom and Lauren and so forth. Or anyone else I like.
I asked Lauren to design the site, cause as per usual I really do not care about the looks a lot and she can use with some distraction. Zach is still breathing, always a good sign

LIved through an other night. Noticed this morning that individual stiches are starting to hurt. I think that is a good sign. I et all the stiches out of wed I think all 20 or so of the damn things. I am SOO looking forward to that vist let me tell ya. Anyways, were up and heading off to work. If you are one of the proud people who served out country, Happy day to you.

My insides are not exactly happy today either. I do aprechiate the fact i almost never get colds and or sick. But let me tell ya, my body hates antibiotics with a passion. They make me sick as a poverbial dog.

Well damn I got MT working. I think it has a bit of a learnign curve though so dont expect me to be changeing over fast. But it is working and that is a start huh?
posted by Chuck Pierce 9:30 PM 0 comments

 
Well I think almost everything is back working.. Or I hope. Might have lost 4-5 comments but that’s about all in theory.

Folks I REALLY want to know if you find it faster here. I would be surprised if you didn’t.
I think the Gallery is back up and I am gonna try to add some new pics soon. I have taken a crap load as he has done his first real food feedings. Makes a mess but has a good time and seams to enjoy it so far.

Lauren spent an other long day in the hospital, Zach is not doing so well. Sigh. We like to joke about how it is ok we have spares but we are both really worried about the little guy.

I do feel a bit better if I keep my mouth shut and don’t smile or talk. And of course I reved Lauren right up today and was laughing so hard I fell out of my chair. Hurt like hell but was great fun. I would put the transcript from AIM on here but then she WOULD kill me so…

So next on the list is getting MT to work. The problem seems to be in the path. Ok fine. So I think it needs a real path and I think I have it figured out now in theory. We shall see.

Goals for the day.

Get Eli to stay off my lap for more than 3 mins. I think the no smiling thing is freaking him out. Of course I am also torturing him by making him wear a mitten (Thanks again Meg) over his left hand.
He is turning left handed and I hate left handed people so I am making him only use his right hand by putting a mitten on his left and duck tapering it on.
Ahha how many people believed that. Boy you all think I am a crappy parent don’t you. He has 2 sores on his left hand I think from sucking on it, and they are not healing so I have him wrapped up for a few days so it can heal. But no I did not duct tape it on, so he pulls it off every hour or so.

I am actually feeling better today, but that is so relative. Last night I was real real bad. Today it just really hurts mostly when I smile or talk. Such fun.

So I think I might go rent a movie for tonight. I haven’t seen or rented a movie since Eli was born and I am penniless… But I think there are some bottles in the closet I can return and then go get Lord of the rings or something. Since I have seen NOTHING that has came out since early spring it might be fun.

I woke Lauren up twice last night, great fun. Hehe No I did not do it on purpose but Zach has been so sick she has not been sleeping well. Poor guy, I think he is doing better now at least. She had to take him into the emergency room the other night, not fun. And since she has no insurance till the new job starts she has dropped a few K on this one sickness. Oh yeah. But notice neither of us begs for cash online. Though we will take it if you offer mind you.

So today is absolutely great outside nice and warm and so forth so I am gonna see if I can fix the windshield washer sprayer on the car. It has died or something. But I need two people so hoping the neighbors kid gets home soon.

Still migrating stuff to the new site, a major pain in the ass.. But progress is being made at least. If your reading this then it is probably done finally.
