| 7-14-2002 : Where's the Baby? |
| Much to Marcy's dismay, Lorien has NOT made an appearence yet. Marcy's "Due Date" was July 12,2002, and thus far it doesn't look like Lorien will be arriving anytime soon. At this point Marcy isn't dialated at all. I'm beginning to think this kid is going to take after me (I was 4 weeks late!), or prehaps she just wants to keep the "family birth-day"... that would be the 20th (Grandma Helen is Oct 20th, Grandma Sophie was Sept 20th, and of course I'm Feb 20th). In any case, we go BACK to the Doctor on Wednesday to do a few tests and to set up an "eviction date", err "inducting date". Marcy and I are predicting July 22nd, but that is just hearsay at this point. |

And today's JOKE of the DAY - Q: Hear about the terrorist that hijacked a 747 full of lawyers? A: He threatened to release one every hour if his demands weren't met. |
| 7-7-2002 : Holiday Weekend |
|
I love holiday weekends! The 4th of July is usually one of my favorite holidays,
but this year (in Arizona) it has been so DRY that virtually the WHOLE valley was
afraid to shot off fireworks. This marks the first time in MY life that no fireworks
were being blasted into the atmosphere at the local high school.
Aside from NOT having a nice pyrotechtics arieal display to look at, I kept myself busy
over the weekend. Painting the living room - Marcy has pleaded and begged me to paint the living room. I finally caved. The MAIN wall off the living room is now colored "Old Burgundy". The painting was "fun"... and I learned one very valuable lesson. All masking tapes are NOT the same. I "masked" the ceiling and the two adjacent walls (so as NOT to get paint on them). I painted. It looked pretty darn good. The next day I began pulling off masking tape. The masking tape pulled off some of my white paint (on the adjacent walls) and some of the new burgundy on the newly painted wall. I have YET to pull off the tape on the ceiling - I'm afriad too! Needless to say, I have a BIG touchup job ahead of me. Currently my living room is a schambles as everything is pulled away from the newly painted wall. It is difficult to walk though it at this point in time. My friend Mike sold me a entertainment center for $60. A great deal! It's solid oak and is a beautiful piece of furnature. I moved ALL my Audio/Video equipment over to it and have it completely set up. You can TELL where my priorities lay... clean up living room or make sure I can watch TV... hmmmm. And lastly, I changed brake pads on the Malibu. Yet another FUN job on my weekend! The car has 44,000 miles on it and the inner passenger side brake pad was almost bald! My timing was good, the rotors looked fine and the car once again drives silently. Pictures of everything to follow soon... I hope! |

And today's FUNNY THOUGHT of the DAY - Politics Definition: "Poli" from Latin meaning "many" "tics" blood sucking parasites Thus - "Politics" means Many Blood Sucking Parasites... how appropriate! |
| 7-2-2002 : Realization |
|
Last night I came to the realization that Marcy is due to have the baby in 10 days!
It is strange that 9 months have come and gone and right about now things are really
really setting in, that I'm going to have a rugrat. It's NOT that I haven't been
involved with this whole process. I've gone to every Doctor's appointment (with the
exception of 1 that I missed due "Inventory" at work), I've painted the baby's room,
I've built the crib, and I've watched as the baby has grown. Not to mention the
"Prepared Child Birth Class" we took... I still wonder if that helped me or worried me more...
The time of Lorien's arrival is growing near. Marcy has been complaining of random
contractions since yesterday.
As fate would have it, I managed to procure a Digital Camera... just in time for Lorien! Mike decided that it was time for him to "upgrade" and buy a NEWER model camera, so he sold me his old Mavica. The same camera I have been borrowing for the last 2 years to take pictures for this site! |
|
And today's FUNNY MOMENT of the DAY - Well on Sunday, I answered the phone at work the usual way, Me- "Good Evening, the Good Apple, how may I direct your call..." The response I got slightly surprised me Customer - "ahhh do you work there?" My mind raced as I thought of 100 differnt things I COULD have said... Me - "ahhh no, I'm a customer that like's going to retail stores and answering their phones" or Me - "No, I'm actually robbing this place, could you call back in about 5 minutes when I'm gone?" or Me - "Yes, would you like to talk to somebody who doesn't work here?" or Me - "Yes, thank you for calling that was your ONE answer for the day..." Bottom line, moral of the story - When you call a place of business, be intelligent enough and prepared enough to ask your question without making yourself look like a complete putz. |
| 6-18-2002 : Docie pays us a visit |
| Marcy's best friend Docie is visiting us this week. She moved off to Michigan back in the early 90s and wanted to come down and see Marcy. I'm sure she is thrilled with the 108 degree days we have been having! Her visit of course ment that I had to clean out the "storage bedroom". That was a project I was SOOOO not looking forward to. |
| 6-18-2002 : Baby Update |
| Well Marcy is in her 8th month now. We have taken 3 out of 4 "Prepared Childbirth Classes" (which by the way, have worried me more then instilling a sense of peace in me). She is big, it's hotter then a frying pan out here and I can already see my electric bill for next month being an all new record HIGH! We got to see Asa yesterday. She is getting big and is ever so cute. I still think she looks alot like me when I was a baby. |
| 6-18-2002 : AJHS Class of 92 Reunion |
| It has been an interesting month. With all the "goings on" of May and June, I must say I'm really glad I've surrounded myself with some GREAT people for this reunion. We have found and contacted about 70 classmates thus far. There are still about 120 out there... and some of them are working hard to elude us! (or so it seems). On June 22nd (this upcoming Saturday) I plan to make an appearance at Prospector Park. I HOPE a few others show up and we can celebrate the "original" planned reunion with a nice PHAT barbeque. See the reunion site for more details. |
| 6-18-2002 : University of Phoenix |
|
Well I've been busy... what else is new? I started classes at the University of Phoenix. I have finally
decided to finish up that degree I started 10 years ago. I already have about 90 credits. I completed my
first UoP class last week. 5 weeks of class equals 3 credits. I should have a degree in about 2 years at this rate |
| 5-8-02 : Website Facelift |
|
Jason Kerwin has long been hard at work (hardly working... who knows?!?!) designing a new face to my website. After many long hours
bringing over the majority of the content from the old site, here is the end product. Hope you like! |
| 4-30-02 : The Babies! |
|
Well, since my MAIN computer is down, I don't have the software to RESIZE some of these
pictures (guess I'll have to find a way to do it tomorrow)! I've decided NOT to wait in
putting this page up though... it's too gosh darn cute! Click here to see Asa, Brenden, and Alexis! Remember, some of the pictures are rather LARGE and will be resized VERY soon! |
| 4-29-02 : A Quick "week in review" |
|
What a week.... so much is happening so fast, I can hardly remember the week. Hmmmm Wednesday I was suppose to attend an Annual Homeowners Assoc. Meeting. I pull into my garage at 4:15PM and Marcy is frantic wanting to know where I've been..... Like an idiot I respond...."ahhh work...." Apparently she had been having MORE lower abdomin cramps and she called to doctor. The good doctor told her to get to the hospital for monitoring. 2 minutes later we where headed to the hospital. They hooked her up to all sorts of nifty gadgets and monitors. Needless to say an hour and a half later we left the hospital with them telling us that the baby is growing and probably agitating Marcy's guts. I missed my Meeting (not that I REALLY wanted to go anyway... ). Thursday night we went over Marcy's friend, Lisa's, house for dinner. Friday.... ARG Friday was bad. One computer at work went nuts, I think a harddrive got fried. When I got home that day we had Mom and Dad over for dinner. I made Lasagna. Neal called me saying that his computer was down, I went and checked mine.... and sure enought ONE of mine was down too. ARG. Turns out Neal and I had the Chernobel Virus and it happened to GO OFF on April 26th. ARG! Thus I spend MUCH of Sunday working on our computers. Neals is back up... mine is still down (thank goodness I have a few spares!) Saturday - yet another Reunion Meeting. This time Jake, Cass, Nicole L, Shannon, and Myself met at my place. We have officially moved the date from June to October. A move I was excited to make, yet dreaded to make at the same time. After all, I had already announced the JUNE date. We are booking the AZ Golf Resort for Oct 19th which is going to make for a MUCH nicer reunion. We recalculated costs and at this point it appears cost per adult will be $55.00. A slight increase over our orginal $45... but for the upgrade of the golf resort, it will be well worth it! Cass sent out an email to everybody on the reunion site telling them of the change and asking for mailing addresses and phone numbers. Thus far the reaction HAS be positive! (Which makes ME feel a whole lot better). Sunday - aside from the whole COMPUTER rebuilding, I did managed to sqeeeeeeze in a few games of basketball with Tyson. Once again I also managed to get a sunburn! Not bad, just RED! Baby Pictures... coming soon! As soon as this computer debockling is overwith, I will get my scanner up and running and get pics of Asa, Brenden, Zevin, and my yet unseen child!

| 4-15-02 : Today's top stories with a Soren twist |
|
Tiger wins third green jacket - who cares?? I'm not a golf fan and everyday I become less and less of a Professional Atheletic fan. These are people with "special talents". In Tiger Woods case, he can hit a golf ball and knock it into a hole in less swings then the average bear.... and he gets paid Millions of Dollars in "prize money" and endorsments. Great, the guy has a special skill. It is feeding the hungry? Is it helping to solve the crisis in the Middle East? Is it helping to find alternative fuel sources? Does it educate the youth of America? I don't have anything against Tiger Woods, and when you look at him as a whole, he is one of the BEST "rolemodel atheletes" (and I seriously use that term loosely when refering to someone who plays GOLF), he doesn't do drugs, spit on fans, curse (in public), has a warm and gentle demenor. I just do not understand why he "earns" Millions of dollars a year while the educators of America earn next to nothing with a four-year plus degree. We claim "education of America's youth" is a priority in this nation, yet everytime a budget cut must be made, the first place they seem to hit is education. Ok enough whining.... here is what I did this weekend. Saturday I went to the city of Mesa Auction. Great place to go if you need a bicycle, cell-phone, or a car stero at an incredible price! I didn't buy anything, but I had fun sitting there with my friends and occastional throwing a bid out. I did managed to get a nice sunburn! ouch! Saturday afternoon... I finally decided to buy the plywood for my aquarium project. I settled for a lessor grade (I hope this doesn't sting me in the butt!) and I managed to save about $30. I borrowed a Circular Saw and began the cutting process. Sunday - Tyson came over at 9AM and we played a little basketball. I wore a regular "t-shirt" instead of my usual tank-top to help protect my already burnt shoulders. I'm happy to announce that I kicked Tyson's butt. Later in the afternoon I began work on the LEAK in my drip system. I quickly discovered that my "Leak" was more of a "flood". It wasn't a simply drip, it was like a hose sprying on full blast. I bought the necessary parts and began work. I fixed it, but due to the angles involved I hae a sneaky suspicion that I will be redoing the job within the next few weeks. (ARG!) All and all I spent vast amounts of time outside this weekend and today I'm slightly sore, but feeling GREAT. All the physical activity must have released enough endorphines to carry over to today. |
| 4-12-02 : Look Mom, I'm not Slackin! |
|
Well we visited Amy and Brenden at the hospital on Tuesday.. another DARK
haired kid! Still no pictures yet... ARG! (Bad Soren, Bad Soren). Lately my DREAMs have been haunted by images of people I knew in high school. Strangely enough, last night's "Feature Presentation" Dream included a cast of hundreds (that I haven't seen in 10 years!) and a trip to the beach! I wish I hadn't watched "JAWS" a few weeks back as I do recall I was paranoid about sharks in the dream. Very odd... very scary... yet somewhat refreshing in a strange sort of way! Marcy managed to burn "something" in the oven yesterday. I came home to a very refreshing smeell of roasted marshmellows. 2 hours later the roasted marshmellow smell turned into ancient campfire smell. I'm still working on removing the smell.... ARG. Shannon (Johnson) from high school droped by work. She was touching base with me as she is doing MUCH of the footwork in find alumni at the moment. I was thrilled to see her. We haven't seen eachother in about 8 years if memory serves me correctly. |

And today's PET PEEVE of the DAY - hmmm it's hot! Heheheh about 94 today, in April... ouch! |
12-30-2001
As the year closes....
2001 is all but done and over now and as I reflect upon the last 365 days I
can recall many happy times, some sad, and a few unforgetable moments. Seeing
Alexus (Gene and Amy's baby) on and off thoughout the year has been a pleasure, we haven't
had ANY babies in the family for 17 years so Lex this last year was a true delight.
One year in our house... it was a GRAND year! I managed to put a
sprinkler system in the backyard and grow some grass (ahhh Rye grass.. the legal kind!).
Marcy is pregnant... Amy is preganat, Misty-Dawn is pregnant, and
Jenna is pregnant... 2002 is going to be the YEAR of the BABY. Planning
of my 10 year high school reunion... started off great, but my time and energies have been
elsewhere for the last 3 months now. I really really need to get BACK on track as there is
ONLY about 6 more months of planing available. And lastly.... the passing of
Grandma Sophie. She survived to the ripe age of 89, so I was incredibly blessed to
have spent the last 27 years of my life living in close proximity to her. I will
miss her laugh... I will miss her stories of yesteryear... I will miss all those
endless games of Canasta and Rummy that we used to play.
So what does the year 2002 look to bring?? Babies... lots of babies!! I'm hoping to reunite with many friends from High School at my 10 year reunion. Completion of my 300 gallon aquarium (it's just a dream right now!) Prehaps it's now time to revisit my dreams of completing my BS degree?? As always I plan to continue my research into Nikola Tesla... alternate energy.. and anything else which lights my fancy.
12-23-2001
A funeral and a wedding - what
a day 12-22-2001 was... at 1 PM I found myself at my parent's house having a
memorial to my Grandma Sophie whom passed away on 12-17-2001. Relatives abounded as we ate
and drank and looked though old photo album all in memory of Grandma Sophie. Aunt
Elayne and Harvey even came down from Maryland to partake in the festivities. At 4
PM Marcy and I made our way to Daneille Russo's and Jeff Houseman's Wedding over in Gold
Canyon. It was a beautiful outdoors wedding and the weather was almost perfect!
It was slightly chilly, but NOT enough to complain about. The reception was a
BLAST! Great food (at least I thought so!!), dancing, and I even let myself
drink a couple of glasses of champaign (not something I ususally do... I know.. I'm a wild
man!). It was a very busy day... but very fulfilling. I was able
to talk to friends and family virtually all day and still managed to have a good time.
8)
Aunt Sophie remembered - today marks the anniversary of my AUNT Sophie's passing. As you can tell, Christmas has NOT been a joyous occasion for me for the last 2 years. This year I lost my Grandmother, last year I lost my Aunt. I relish in the fact that I had the opportunity to spend MUCH of my life living within 10 miles of each of them , but I miss them.... most at Christmas.
12-20-2001
The Lord of the Rings -Fellowship
of the Ring- I've waited about 2 years for this movie to come out
and I was excited to see it on opening day. The run time on this movie is just
under 3 hours... to me, it didn't even seem that long. I was enthrawled in the
action. The story is grandious. The special effects are GREAT. The characters
and scenery were perfect. Tolkien would have been proud. My ONLY possible
complaint could have been that we didn't get an incredible amount of character
developement. I can see why.. you have about 14 main characters and only 3 hours to
work with to tell the story. Since I've read all the books, it wasn't bad for me at
all. I would HIGHLY reccommend this movie for any fan of the books. I
probably would NOT reccommend this movie to kids under 12. There are some scary
moments and the story could be too complex for them to understand.
12-17-2001
Grandma Sophie passed
away at about 9:20am this morning. She had 89 years under her belt and her time
apparently was up. I had the opportunity to visit her a few times this last week...
and I'm glad that I did. Her passing wasn't unexpected... but it still hurts knowing
that her many years of wisdom and experiences are now lost to me. I will miss the
many times we gathered around the table to play various card games. Those were good
times and those are the memories I will cling to when I remember her.
Christmas Lights... finally found some "icicle lights"... finally managed to make it on my roof (which is a place I don't like to be). With the help of my father-in-law, I hung up the Christmas lights. Not bad.. if I do say so myself, but I really wanted to put up like a million more. I love looking at them!! And I like to show off the house.
Aquarium project underway- well I've talked about it for months.. now I'm actually starting work on building my mega aquarium. Check out the Link to the left for details. So far I've made the STAND. I'm preparing to start the aquarium very soon.
12-4-2001
Christmas
lights.... Ok 2 weeks ago I could find "icicle lights" in
EVERY store... this last week end I went to 6 different store and there were... ZERO,
Zilch, nada, ZIP!! I was quite disappointed! I still need to get my Christmas
lights up.. and I wanted to ADD to the collection BEFORE I climbed up on the roof... arg!
Today it's RAINING! heheh long time no see rain.
Which brings me to my next point... windshield wipers, can't they make these things last
forever?!?!? Instead of the 2-3 months that the seem to as they crumble and pieces begin
flying off of them when you actually use them. Rain is good... except to drive in
(and in my yard where Star Wars fans try to re-inact the Empire Strikes Back swamp
sceens....when it rains).
The AJHS reunion stuff is going mighty slow. I have been
going CRAZY with work for the last 2 months and now the holidays are creeping up on me as
well as Marcy being pregnant.... spare time is becoming very scare. I do intend on
carrying this thing though and meeting up with those hundreds of graduate of the class of
1992 sometime this summer. I just need to regain some momentum and focus!! 8)
11-11-2001
Welcome to November!! I should have some big news on Thursay.... keep checking back!!
10-14-2001
-Marcy, Tom
Wrigley, Gina, and I ventured back to the High School for the Homecoming Football game on
the 12th. Read my overview of it on the AJHS 1992 section of the site
-After 2 days of loading, formating, and generally cursing my hard-drives, I
finally got my main computer BACK up and running. I'm quite impressed. My
Broadband Internet is working BETTER then it ever has before!! I seemed to have
resolved MANY "unexplained" error messages that used to pop up, and the computer
just feels like it is working better now. This is NOT a procedure I reccommend that
everybody do. It isn't very difficult, but if you don't know what your doing, you
could easily loose YEARS worth of data. I tend to reformat my hard-drives about
every 2 years. I of course do more on my computer then the average computer user
though. I play around with BETA versions of software as well as tweaking my system
with everything I can get my hands on ... just to see what will happen.
-The weather out here in Arizona has cooled off sufficeintly enough for me to
finally turn OFF my Air Conditioner. I'm thrilled!!! This time of year
and mid-late spring are my favorite times of year. It's beautiful all day long.
You can do virtually anything outside or you can sit inside with the windows open
listening to the neighborhood children frolicking about.
10-10-2001
-ohhh
not a good day for me yesterday. I get home and I'm working on my
"network", I go to reboot my main computer and I get a warning that rebooting
will Disconnect the 2 users that are currently connected to my computer. I did a
double take. WHAT?!?! Apparently in my hast a month ago, I turned
off my firewall protection to my computer, I didn't think much of it at the time.
Yesterday I learned a serious lesson.. there are many morons who will do anything to screw
up anybody else's computer. I checked over the damage... I didn't see anything of a
particular nasty nature, but one guy LOADED my computer up with .EML files (all over the
place in almost every folder)... I must have deleted over 50 of them that were created
yesterday (and I didn't create them). After fearing "other" nasties that I
couldn't find, I decided to REFORMAT my hard-drives. This wasn't a particularly
"happy" thought for me, but I felt it was necessary to maintain my internal
computer security. Today I begin the rigorous process of reinstalling all my
games/utlities and other software, #1 after my operating systems is going to me my
firewall.
-Homecoming is coming up at AJHS, I intend on going this year.... it will mark my
return to AJHS for the first time in many years.. and the first time I will have attended
a Homecoming game in almost a decade.
- As for the Reunion site... I have received over 6 emails in the last 2 days
from many of my fellow graduates. Apparently one of the television networks is
planning on doing a "reality based" show on someone from the class of 1992
planning their 10 year reunion. I dont' know if this is something I would like to be
involved in or not... but I'm going to email it out to all the classmates I'm in contact
with currently and get their opinion.
10-8-2001
-My
backyard is finally starting to grow some grass!! The legal kind... not what most of you
are thinking.. hehe
-I'm preping a NEW message board for this site!!! Should be
up in the VERY VERY near Future.
-The weather out here in Arizona is starting to cool down abit...
we'be been below 100 for most of the week, even had some rain the last few days.
-Marcy and I bought a new bed... King Size... that OLD waterbed was
starting to kill both of us. Most mornings I would find myself waking up stuck
between the water-matress and the side of the bed, Marcy would have 1/2 the bed, and the
cat managed to have my 1/2 of the bed!! Bad Kitty!!
10-3-2001
Marcy's Birthday!!!
Be sure to
email Marcy today!!! (A link to her email is at the bottom of the page)
- I spent some time on 10-2-01 filling out scholarship forms on the
internet... I figure what the heck!!!
- I'm a little bit out of it tonight... kind of in a slightly depressed mood,
but still happy to be me.
10-1-2001
Welcome
to October!!! Here is a quick rundown of what is going on....
-Marcy and I are both finally getting over that nasty virus, yay!!!!
-I managed to ram my shin into a tote at work... doesn't loooook tooo bad, but it
hurts like all heck. Touching the area I hit results in massive pain.. so I'm
leaving it alone for the time being.
- For Marcy's Birthday we bought a NEW King Size bed. We both hated our Waterbed...
it seemed to give us more pain the rest at night.
- I stoped by Gene and Amy's new house last night... it's very nice!!!
9-26-2001
Marcy
and I have both been strickend with some evil little germ/virus that we would LOVE to kill
off. It's like having and cold/flu at the same time, but only with 1/2 the symptoms
that seem to be ever changing. I, in the last few months, have gone to a
variety of computer/furniture auctions in Tempe and Scottsdale. I've managed to buy
a solid wood desk, a pneunmatic desk, grey office table/desk, a small table, about 5
computer monitors (15 and 17 inchers), 2 white boards, a couple of OLDer computers
including a DUEL pentium 90 server, a few chairs, and somehow I managed to get a bambo
type plant.
Work has kept me exceptionally busy lately. The Store Catalog has finally been printed and sent out (this represents about 1 1/2 months worth of work for me), and it feels good knowing that others are actually SEEING and using something I worked so hard on for so long.
The Alumni sight has been somewhat slacking lately. It is difficult to stay motivated when I'm not seeing many results. I will have to go on another emailing quest... doing hit and miss emails attempting to find classmates.
9-11-2001
The Day America Stood Still.
*Mark and remember*
9-4-2001
THANK YOU!! To all of you who visited in the month of August. I had 324 hits on this site in the month of August which is BY FAR my best month ever. Please come back and visit often!! If you have any suggestions or would just like to say hi, please email me.
AJHS 1992 Alumni site is looking OHHHH so good.
Jason Kerwin's webpage design and massive content help from Bill Sprouse has really helped
it shape up into a thing of beauty. This past weekend I spent lots of time adding
people to email address book in preperation for a "bulk mailing" to my
classmates. Then I discovered I was doing it all wrong... OUCH. So after
entering 49 names and email addresses I very quickly realized that I in fact actually had
only saved ONE name and email address in my "address book". Hmmmm live and
learn.
Some exciting News, Diane Harrison (Art teacher at the high school) is in
charge of the high school website. Jason contacted her and we may get a LINK from
the AJHS site to our very own reunion site. It's very exciting!!
I bumped into Carly Thurnbeck's younger brother yesterday and he passed on
her email address to me (EXCELLENT another contact!!).
I finally got an email response from Cass.......
Other then that, incoming names and contact info has been slow. I can
atest to some of that, I've been slackin in the contacting others department lately.
Work...... ohhhhhh man..... I've been writing the
MOST complex Excel Macro (or series of Macros I should state) that I have ever undertaken.
I'm combining 3 different databases from our Point of Sale Software, to create ONE
giant database to allow us to Print shelf tags for all products in the store and save
virtually HOURS of time a week in doing it our current method. It has been quite
challenging as I've had to go back numerously and rewrite and add new procedures to the
Visual Basic based Macros. I'm starting to get really excited as I'm approaching a
part in the process where I can actually see some tangable results.
Thought of the Day
Eagles
were born to soar
Lions were born to roar
Sharks rule the oceans
Humans were put on this world to CREATE
We are not satisfied just BEING
We need to see some physical results from our EFFORTS
Whether it be a healthy newborn baby,
a masterpiece of canvas and paint,
a refinished paino,
a computer program that brings enjoyment to others,
or a simple response from those watching us... be
it a smile, a laugh, or a "thank you"
Date: 8-9-2001
Ok people, heres what's up:
Jason Kerwin has added his magical hand to the Alumni Section. He totally

Names are coming in on the AJHS 1992 page, keep'em rollin!!! Working HARD on
the AJHS 1992 Alumni Page.
Starting to add pics to my Disneyland
Vacation Page.
Still on the TO DO List

Need to take some current picture of the High School to post
