Sexy time 2008-03-07 22:53:38 A lot of you ladies out there have been clamoring to see McDad in all his sexiness. Well, your wait is no longer––thanks to the wonderful artwork of Lilly.
In this portrait of her Adonis-like daddy, she describes my hair as “pokes.”
Check out the flickr gallery for a few golf pics from Palm Springs.

Mommy needs a NIGHT OUT 2008-03-05 18:40:05 After spending last week in Palm Springs for work––I know, I know, poor me––my boys from LA drove out for a little golf weekend.
As we were making plans for Friday night, I sent a good friend of mine this text message. She’s a mom of two and I think she REALLY needed a night out. [...] Read more:Mommy
Photo from the accident 2008-02-23 11:53:25 Not to be too morbid, but I thought this might help reenforce the need to pay attention on the road. And how that pole may have saved my passenger and me.
A perfect, sunny afternoon. Perfect driving conditions.
You can see the impact the pick-up truck had on the car. The other side of the car––the side [...] Read more:Photo

Life and Death in the blink of an eye 2008-02-21 01:10:08 If this post strikes a chord, pass it along….you just may save someone’s life. Wow. Very dramatic.
I have a pet peeve when people say, “wow, that really put’s things in perspective,” after something tragic happens. I prefer to be conscious of the people and things I should appreciate as a matter of course.
That being [...]
“Guess Who” McDad Contest 2008-02-14 23:54:32 Guess which one is the real Mitch???
We just got back from a great trip to Vail. I was exceptionally cocky after my successful return to skiing at Sol Vista a couple of weeks ago. Any Colorado readers probably know that Sol Vista is the Putt-Putt course of Colorado ski resorts.
Vail, on the other hand, is [...] Read more:Guess

The best laid plans felled by snow and eye boogers 2008-02-06 19:55:25 So, I’m supposed to be in Chicago….but I’m not. Let’s break it down.
MRS in in Dallas this week.
A meeting that I really couldn’t pass up arose for me and I was supposed to hit the Windy City this morning–a 6:50 flight necessitating me to get up at 4am.
Two days ago, Lilly complained about an ear [...] Read more:plans

BIG BLUE SUNDAY 2008-02-03 23:32:53 Just needed to throw some big love to the G-men before I go to bed. Unfortunately, my dad, my brother and I had to watch the game in 3 different states but other than that it was a flat out amazing Super Bowl.
And to Gisele’s boyfriend (aka Bridget’s baby daddy), this guy, this guy, this [...]
The List 2008-01-30 22:44:36 Confession time. I suck at commenting on your blogs. I try very hard to show my appreciation for all the fantastic comments I receive but I come up very, very short. However, many of you would be surprised at how frequently I keep up with your exploits with my daily frantic scan through a bulging [...]
McDad X Games 2008-01-27 23:51:28 Anyone with kids knows that parenting can be overwhelmingly difficult. Kids can suck you dry and leave you dreaming of witness protection. But just when things seem their most grueling, the parenting gods like to throw us a few bones to let us know it’s all worth it.
That’s what I got yesterday on our maiden [...] Read more:Games
Mitch Hasselhoff 2008-01-24 15:30:56 I had no idea Hasselhoff
would generate so much blog mania. I may have to make him a regular feature in MMW. In the mean time, here’s an old snapshot I found from my days in LA where I worked part-time as a lifeguard. I think my dedication shows as I crane my neck to [...] Read more:Mitch
List of Stuff 2008-01-19 15:34:17 A friend from real life emailed a list of this stuff today and since I have nothing better to write–here are my answers. Let me know some of yours.

Sex. Marriage. The Secret Problem. 2008-01-17 01:59:53 I find myself asking yet again for a favor. I’ve written a new post for MHM and I promised my Rocky Mountain girls that I would direct no less than eighty-thousand readers over there today. I may have over committed a bit.
However, if you would like to read about yours truly getting in touch with [...] Read more:Problem
Strollerdebry 2008-01-16 12:19:24 Thanks to the infinite wisdom, or depraved insanity of my girl Rachael Brownell, aka, Redsy, I have now been mentioned in/linked to/ridiculed by the illustrious Strollerderby thrice–so I figure it’s about to to recipri-karma them with links to said mentions. (Is this really just a weird way of redirecting you back to this blog in [...]
Am I a perve or just a red-blooded American boy? 2008-01-11 22:40:56 Waiting for an MRI on my knee today, I fumbled through a pile of magazines and being a regular Joe, garden variety, run of the mill, male homosapien, I couldn’t help but notice this Newsweek cover.
It got me thinking about something I’ve become aware of ever since MRS was pregnant with Lilly–I really find pregnant [...] Read more:blooded

Delurker Day 2008-01-10 13:20:47 This is for my fellow Mile High Mama, Greeblemonkey. She made this badge. I live in awe of her. Check out both sites please.

Reason #1 (of 1) that Men are Smarter Than Women 2008-03-21 11:31:35 I have been brooding about this subject for a while and have continued to put off writing about it because I dig women, women read this blog, and I live with three of them so I’ve become sympathetic to the cause. But today was the last straw (I’ll explain at the end of the post) [...] Read more:Reason

How well do you know Mitch? The results are in. 2008-04-01 17:52:09 Not a lot of McDad points handed out today. Big ups to my boys at the BF’s. Here’s how the weekend went down.
First of all, I chose the solo Saturday. No brainer. But check out what a great husband I am. Saturday morning I told MRS I would blow of cards and take her out. [...] Read more:Mitch

When three women just aren’t enough….get another one??? 2008-04-12 22:35:08 Apparently I’m a glutton for punishment. We got another girl, today. And now the most important McDad contest ever––
NAME MITCH’S NEW DOG
5000 McDad points for the winning entrant. Our new puppy is a 2 year old pug mix we met at the Dumb Friends League today. She was the one and only dog we met [...]
Hydroponic BBQ 2008-05-18 21:32:22 A neighbor commented on my hydroponic stash today during an impromptu BBQ
I hosted at Chez McDad.
Alas, I’m not that cool, if you find such things cool. A 41 year old father of 2, living in the Colorado burbs really has no business growing his own pot. This “grass” is merely a school project that [...]
Mixed Feelings 2008-05-30 23:45:06 I took Lilly to T-Ball practice tonight and I swelled with pride as she peppered the infield with each cut she took during BP. She goes well to the opposite field and she’s kind of a slappy, a la Ichiro. I can picture her batting lead-off for the Mariners when Mr. Suzuki retires, batting a [...] Read more:Mixed

real dads fish 2008-06-02 23:20:42 I’m not sure what the parenting experts say about teaching your kids to be card sharps, but I think Lilly’s got the knack.
We’ve been playing a lot of Go Fish lately. She’s getting pretty good at fanning out her cards. Her trash talking is top notch. All I need to do is to stop her [...]
All I Wanna Do Is Get Some Oxygen 2008-06-10 17:35:35 Last night I took MRS to see Sheryl Crow preform at Red Rocks for her birthday. It’s kind of sad that we’ve been in Denver for 6 years and have never ventured over to the majestic amphitheater. Aside from a perfect night, a good show, and a night away from the kids, we learned an [...] Read more:Oxygen
