Three days a week, lots of information about my latest stories, my newest nephew (Micah!), our forthcoming niece (As-Yet-Unnamed Baby Girl Vann!), their oldest brother (Malakai), the three nephews on the Albert side (okay, they&#8217;re Ramos kids, but still, it counts!), our trip to Vegas this spring\/summer, Venna, the new apartment, and a billion other silly things that I feel like ranting about.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; For now, I am feeling a little sad this morning.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Twelve years ago, on 12\/23\/2003, I registered my first domain &#8220;Solitary-Confinement.com&#8221; as a Christmas present from my then-fianc\u00e9 (but I paid for it myself, had the idea to do it myself, and frankly &#8211; he had nothing to do with it). Today it expired.
