Oops, I did it again

I woke up early this morning on a most comfortable hospital cot (compared to the "bed chair" that's in the room with my wife, the cot is heaven) so that I could go home and get my kids ready for school and for a day at their grandparent's house.

Before I returned to the hospital to be with my wife (who is doing much better and may come home tomorrow) I ran some errands. I was picking up some shampoo for Kellie at her hair salon when I noticed something wrong...my wedding band was missing. Again!

I have absolutely no idea where it is because, when it fell off, it didn't make a sound. And exactly where it fell off is a mystery. It's not on the floor of the salon, it's not in the hospital room, and it's not in my car. It may be at my parents house or it may be at my house. But wherever it is, it's really lost this time.

Kellie isn't upset - she's been wanting to get a new one for me - but as I said before, I don't want a new one. I like my old one. So when I return home this afternoon the hunt will continue for the world's most wanted wedding band. And if you find it lying around somewhere please let me know.

Sounds like you need to consider some alternative options. Hey, here's one - get your wedding band tattooed on your finger. Kellie would dig that!

I thought about the tattoo idea as well. My biggest fear is that, with the ring off of my finger, every woman in America will see me as "fair game" and how am I supposed to keep them off of me?

Yeah, come to think of it, you always were a real chick magnet. It's got to be the hair or the formidable basketball skills?

Come on man, you know I love you. Hey, if it makes you feel any better, there are many days I'd kill to have your "do" (as in hairdo). Of course, whereas you actually look good without hair - I'd look like a total idiot.

If I thought I'd look good without hair, I'd shave my melon in a skinny minute. I know, that's utter vanity - but it's the truth.

But why are you hatin' on my ball skills? Don't be a playa hater.

My Story to Tell

I was hesitant at first to write this blog post. A big reason for that is because so many people have experienced a lot of life-altering eve...
