https://www.youtube.com/embed/VC-GN1irJrU I feel about #jetsgo the same way Chuck Noland, Tom Hanks’ character in Castaway, did about the angel wings on the FedEx package: it saved my life. It was a symbol of hope in a season where all I could do was wait. In the summer of 2011, Timile, Cydney, and I called Buffalo... Continue Reading →
Thirty Months/Two Years Ago
As of today, Cydney is two and a half. While it's been a very long twenty-nine months and twenty-two days, swiftly it has flown by. After another night of watching Pitch Perfect and Cydney refusing for me to put her to bed, I'm up doing what I do just about every night: reflecting. Tonight, I... Continue Reading →

What A Day (Stuck In Newark)
Ok, the plan for today was to get take the train into Newark, NJ to fly to Buffalo. Â I'm flying Southwest Airlines, which doesn't have any direct flights to Buffalo from New York. Â Fine. Â The lesser of the evils would be flying from Jersey, connect in Baltimore, and then off to Buffalo. Â Sounds simple, right?... Continue Reading →
Back To Buffalo
