My definition of manliness has certainly changed over the years. This morning I actually said, “I get a tea in the morning and latte in the afternoon.” It’s been a long time since I’ve watched any of the Dirty Harry movies, but I don’t think Clint ever uttered those words.

It means a lot to me that I can get mad at my two boys (one now a man, one getting closer and closer). Men should be able to yell at each other, simmer a bit, and then move on. Yesterday, I told my youngest son, in no uncertain terms, that I was not happy with his endeavor on a lacrosse field. I had no concerns about performance — I felt he wasn’t taking it seriously while others were working hard. He disagreed, angrily. Within 30 minutes we were good. That’s Blogenmasculinity.

My wife and I are discussing various long-term care insurance plans. I pointed out that I want the high-end insurance because that will guarantee I would be at a nursing home with hot nurses. Blogenberg’s Blogenmasculinity is so adorable it’s intolerable, don’t you think?
