I love a good movie. I can discuss aspects of my favorites for hours. On the flip side I also find myself seeing wierd things that really bother me in movies, and thus make it hard to even watch at times. Not just the lack of writing/character development in so many of todays movies, and the heacy reliance on graphics, but odd little things. Couple examples Ill note, oddly with ties to the same character.
Soon to be released is a new Superman release. I am REALLY looking forward to it. The writers, director, and producer in place have a great record. And the cast is great. But as I see preview after preview I cannot get one thing out of my head. it shows Clark with a beard, before he takes on the Man of Steel persona. But then he is clean shaven as Superman. So how does he shave. Even better who cuts his hair. Those of you none comic nerds, ask what a silly question. But for you comic book readers you know this is a valid question. I really hope I do not obsese on this while watching the movie. Cause here's the thing. The last Superman movie they did, Superman Returns, in 2006 was a story that was suppose to take place 5 years after the superman 2 movie, which was made in 1980. And early in the film a kid captures a pic of superman on his PHONE. Yes his camera phone in 1985. HOW CAN THIS BE???. Now a normal person, IE not me, chalks this up to it's just a movie. But not me, for the rest of the movie I obsese about this mistake, O of course untill we learn that Lois' boy is Clark's/Supermans. AGAIN, HOW CAN THAT BE. SUPERMAN COULE NEVER FATHER A CHILD WITH A HUMAN!!!!!
God I wish I could just lighten up sometimes.
Sharing my thoughts on likes and dislikes in life, My Faith in Christ, and my life as a father of a teenage girl and to 2 Autistic boys.

Over dramatic children.
I know all parents say their children are way over dramatic, but I have to say I have a case for the some of the most.
Today my daughter got a text from her friends saying the school bus left early and they where already on it. It normally comes about 7:45 and the text came a bit before that of course. Normally I am still home but today I had to leave for work early and Jenn already left to drop off the boys. So Dez calls her mom crying hysterically saying she missed the bus. Now Dez is a very repsponsible girl, and I canot ever remember getting on her case for missing the bus, which she has a few times. Things happen, that being said every time she has its the worst thing ever to her. I just chalk it up to her being a girl.
Now I also have 2 boys on the autism spectrum as you all know. Well today Josh, my youngest all of a sudden started screaming from his bedroom upstairs. I went up to see what was wrong. Well he plays with these beeds, he refers them to balls, and whatever color they are, IE the yellow ball, orange ball and so forth. . Well one of them was on the middle of a window cell that is behind his clothing dresser and out of his reach. He was screaming at the top of his lungs. So I reached and got it, gave it to him and what does he do. He rolls it on the window cell again and this time it fell behind the dresser. But did he get mad, NO this was actualy what he wanted. He was mad the first time that it did not fall behind the dresser, but instead just stayed on the window cell.
Man if only that ball would roll properly.

Why does a person who never passed a single real English Class after 7th grade have a Blog???
Well I have gone and created a blog. Why? I don't know. For some reason I feel the need to share my thoughts, my ideas, opinions, successes and failures with 2 people. I say that cause that's the most followers I'll probably end up with.
What might I write about? Probably a lot about sports and entertainment. Some about my life as a parent to autistic children. and maybe about things I do like couponing and my job as a District manager.
It will not be well written, for I am not a "good" writer.
What it will be is honest and sincere. That's all I want out of people when they share their own thoughts and feelings, so that's what I'll give.
This weekend was Memorial day weekend. Its currently Sunday night so still have actual Memorial day ahead of me. It was a really good weekend, and at the same time a hard weekend. I say both oddly due to the same reason
Sunday my wife and I got Baptized togethor. I had been as a child, and my wife was as a baby the traditional Catholic way, but I wanted to again, for the last year has been a big change for me and my life. And getting Baptized kinda put a stamp on all those changes. Some of my family showed up, they came in from out of town, went to the full service with us, and spent the afternoon with us.
It was awesome. Having them there to show support even though, none of them really have the exact same religious beliefs as I do, really showed me what family is supposed to be like. I unfortunatly feel that for 35 years, I was in the dark about what family really means. Due to that I didn't do a very good job of treating my family properly, and still struggle with how to act at times but now feel I understand a lot better what my role is.
It was hard because this weekend also involved a situation that I missed out on, because of so many things that have happened in the past that have soured some of my family realtionships. Some my say it was not my fault, but it is was or not, that doesn't really matter to me. It still is hard.
All in all though the changes I have made the past 6-12 months I feel good about, because those changes have been put in the only hands that can matters. God's. And now I have started putting the other things that matter into his hands as well. I you know what. It feels good.
Well that's all for now. I promise most of my posts will not be this serious.
