Crisis Communications

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

I just heard today that one of my good friends called off his wedding. And not like one of those, "I’m nervous, but I’ll be right back on track" faux cancellations. I’m talking about throw the girl out, change the locks, don’t pick up your phone cancellations. I really feel for the brother, because even [...]

The Boss of Me

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Is it their nurturing nature? Is it their looks? Its something about a wife that just lulls you into a sense of security and warmth. The soft place for you to fall and be totally who you are leads you into paths of comfort and familiarity. Is that why its so easy to lean on [...]

The thing about being married to someone with a busy schedule while holding hone of your own, is that some holidays have to get pushed to the weekend zone. Such was the case on yesterday, as Valentine’s Day came with pizza ordered in, and conversations about the Oprah Show and having children. Our Valentine’s Day [...]

Just Throw Some Hot Sauce On It

In a way, a marriage is like your favorite food. It’s a timeless classic that gets you by whether you are celebrating or commiserating. All you usually have to do is get up, get out, and go get some of the good stuff. But you ever had the feeling of getting amped up to get [...]
