Gettin' Old

So today I was walking down 17th street heading to the bank when I passed by this guy in a blazer and tie. He stopped and said, "Mr. Sinagra?"

It was a student of mine from my first year teaching in Philly. He was a 14-year-old freshman boy when I met him, he's a professional architect with a firm now.

Oh crap do I feel old.

Bittersweet Birthday

Happy birthday to my hero, my inspiration and my childhood life-mentor:
Jim Henson

He would have been 72 today.

Happy Birthday Rosemary!

Rosemary is 6 years old today!
Happy birthday Rosie!

Six years ago today I looked at her and thought, "Now what?"

Six years later I'm still asking myself the same question.

Happy Fall!

New Season

New Look

Same Lame Jokes

Today is the first day of Autumn (I think). So we've changed our colors like so many leaves. Hope you like it.

Filler

Okay, I thought the Ed Begely Jr. thing was funny, but now I can't stad seeing his face everytime I go to the blog.
So here's another picture to look at to get him out of my face!

Busy, Busy, Busy

It's been a little while since I weighed in with a post. The school year has started again so the entries will be a little sporatic until I figure out which periods I can use to accomplish school work and which ones I can use to goof off.

The big news, of course, is that Rosemary started kindergarten this week!

(Next thing you know she'll be finishing grad school.)

Just for the record...the white sneakers are not part of her uniform. It was a gym day.
