Man, I haven’t writ­ten on here in about a month I think. A lot has hap­pened since I last wrote any posts. What has hap­pened? I lost my job. Got let go.

And look­ing for work hasn’t been ter­ri­ble. I’ve had quite a few nib­bles on the resume, had an inter­view, work­ing the emails and the phone. Some­thing will hap­pen soon, I can feel it. Then I won’t be Mr. Mom anymore.

But that’s not what this post is all about. It’s going to be a very big week around here. In no par­tic­u­lar order -

1. Noah starts kinder­garten. Mon­day August 25th, 2008. Today. Ms. Owen is his teacher. Is daddy ner­vous? Oh lord yes. He will be a Sea­hawk, as the pic­ture to the right shows. That’s the school mascot.
2. Pey­ton starts mother’s day out. Is daddy ner­vous about this? Nah, not as much. It’s mother’s day out, not kinder­garten. Minor league stuff.
3. I am finally start­ing the long march to the Master’s degree this week out at UTA. Colo­nial Amer­ica to 1763 will be the first class. I couldn’t be more excited and ner­vous at the same time. It’s going to com­pletely rock.

So that’s life right now. I miss writ­ing here. Gotta fin­ish up that Oper­a­tion Down­fall series. How will it end? Who knows.My bet? The Amer­i­cans win. I’ve got a shiny penny rid­ing on the out­come, believe me.
