Nothing spells vacation like…

In: About Spencer

Being drunk on a Sunday night. Recommendation - good tequila makes for less of a hangover. Last night was margarita night and tonight is mojito, pomegranate martini, and dirty martini night.
I may not come back.

Just so you know, if I’m going 80 MPH in the far left lane, I am not going to switch lanes for you so that you can go 95.  I am going faster than I should already and going faster than those to my right.  If you want to sit directly behind the line of [...]

Back to work

In: About Spencer

So after 48 days I go back to work tomorrow. I’ve learned the following:

I am a horrible homemaker - my laundry pile is worst than when I started and the house is still a mess.
It is true what they say, finding a job, is a full-time job.
My confidence in my ability to find [...]

Coolest wife ever

Being out of work and not bringing any money in, I refrained from buying tickets to see one of my favorite bands - Foo Fighters when they play in Philly this coming February.  My last time seeing them was kind of ruined by going with a friend that wasn’t into it.  Over the past few [...]

In: About Spencer

Kristen and I were talking about favorite cereals growing up yesterday and of course I had to make a list. I’m a child of the 70’s when sugar wasn’t bad for you. Of course now we know better, but the damage is done. And kids my age enjoyed the damage. So [...]

About this blog

Ostensibly A Rubber Door is about anything that's on my mind. Mostly that seems to be about politics, music, sports, and arguing with others about all of the above. I took the name of this blog from a Michael Penn song called Me Around. Check out Michael - he's about the best singer/songwriter there is.
