Happy Birthday to the Bridges!

Posted on February 6, 2014 by Steve

Yesterday was my brother-in-law Aaron’s and today (which may be tomorrow already in Doha) is Wyatt’s. Lucky ducks. According to my weather widget, it’s pretty mild over there but more importantly, it’s isn’t freezing cold like Central Texas…another weather advisory … Continue reading →

Posted on February 2, 2014 by Steve

I didn’t forget this year, I was swamped by other crap in my life which prevented me from posting in advance or on time. We have had a nice exchange by e-mail, getting his address right (again, I screwed upon … Continue reading →

Happy Birthday Cindy

Posted on January 23, 2014 by Steve

How could I forget, especially with the unpleasant, Midwestern-like weather we’re now experiencing down here in Austin! It’s par for the course in Minneapolis but Austin isn’t very well equipped plus the final Geek Bowl is scheduled to happen in the … Continue reading →

Happy birthday Paul

Posted on December 24, 2013 by Steve

My last and best roommate from college celebrates his 46th today. I always felt he and my nephew Nick get screwed by adults when growing up since their birthdays hit around the major gift-giving holidays. “Here kid, this coloring book … Continue reading →

Happy Birthday Sonia, ma petite soeur!

Posted on December 7, 2013 by Steve

The first friend I made in Austin celebrates! I think it’ll be in Basel where Sonia lives with her lovely family and then a belated time when she comes back to Houston for the annual get-together. I didn’t get to see … Continue reading →

Happy Birthday Nick!

Posted on November 28, 2013 by Steve

Fifteen years ago this little dude joined the relatively small Maggi Clan. It’s a bummer his b-day is during Thanksgiving but at least he doesn’t have to go to school today! Nick is now getting into the thick of being … Continue reading →

Welcome Ben!

Posted on November 14, 2013 by Steve

Yesterday was a huge joyous occasion, the awaited arrival of the Derrs’ first child (is first appropriate since I have no idea how many kids are planned or this guy will be an Only). Doesn’t matter in the end because … Continue reading →

Happy birthday Cannon and off to Qatar he goes

Posted on November 13, 2013 by Steve

I know he’s my youngest nephew but I can’t recall if he’s the youngest kid in the bunch. I do know it’s his birthday. What an odd treat, going on a 15-hour flight to live in Qatar. As I stated … Continue reading →

Happy Birthday Helen, pronounced ‘HULL-en’

Posted on October 14, 2013 by Steve

Right after Columbus Day is the next major holiday of the month…Helen’s birthday! You were thinking Halloween right? If I didn’t know her, I would’ve voted for Carrie Fisher’s birthday instead because I always want to remember the actress/author for wearing … Continue reading →

Happy Birthday to Somara, my wife of 10 years

Posted on September 25, 2013 by Steve

Is it a stereotype, fact or a mix of things about husbands forgetting their wives’ birthdays? Same for anniversaries. In our household, it’s actually the opposite. Yes, I, the man, always know when Somara’s birthday is, what day we got … Continue reading →

Happy 25th Birthday to The Onion!

Posted on August 29, 2013 by Steve

This is no joke. America’s leading, grown-up satirical newspaper can finally rent a car, get its insurance premium lowered and not be automatically carded when entering Dave & Busters. Comedy Central has cornered the TV segment and MAD remains the entry-level … Continue reading →

Posted on August 26, 2013 by Steve

Happy Belated 14th birthday to Hunter!

Posted on August 14, 2013 by Steve

Last Monday was Hunter’s birthday. We actually got to speak to him that evening too! Well, he’s usually busy with swimming practice or meets, Hunter is a regular Aquaman like his mother. From what I could gather, he had a … Continue reading →
