Dad blogs and me…
When I first started my online journey, it was mostly a blog about me whining about what I didn't have, and why no one would give me the chance, etc etc. Needless to say, I finally grew up. Well, sort of. STOP LAUGHING!!!
When I realized I wasn't posting as much as I would like, I realized I should, even if it was to just organize my thoughts. Then I started getting comments, and wanted more. So I posted more, and got more comments. It was good. So I started posting on other sites and commenting there, and got more feedback.
So I began trying to figure out where my blog should be. Is it a DadBlog? Yeah, for the most part. It's different from a lot that I have seen, mostly because a lot of the 'DaddyBlogs' were for guys with younger kids - mostly newborns and under 8s. They are interesting, insightful, and well written. I want to try to do that, just at an older age.
So instead of diapers and first steps and things like that - here you'll get posts about
first kisses
acne
pubic hair
bullies
turning my kids into martial artists and how badly that's going
You know your dad did this to you!
marital status - bliss, doom, lovely, shitty ![]()
Not being able to afford a house because of the crappy market
and other things of a soon to be 40 yr old guy who thinks he's in much better shape than he actually is.
Okay, my wife is trying to organize stuff for her brownie troop, and I have distinctly heard the word shit, three times. Accounting major to the RESCUE!!!

I’m right there with you with the mom blogs. Doesn’t seem like there are many who talk about the problems of a teenager. With mine you will get homecoming, trying to encourage diligence in school, teaching financial responsibility, first dates, etc. Everyone else seems to blog about babies and toddlers!
Where are my references??
I’m blazing a trail here and I get a lot of hits from blogging about teenagers!

Pubic hair? Ah man, I can’t even begin to think about it! I’ll keep reading and maybe I can learn a thing or two from you before mine get older.
