The Last Year

Well It's been forever since I've been here and done anything so lets first get caught up. In the last year, Holly and I have conceived a child (due in 10 days!!) No, we don't know the sex of the baby, and for that most of our family are pretty upset at us! Apperently now that we have the technology to find out everything about our child before it's born, its a crime not to. Well I say tosh! 100 Years ago people never found out what they were having and everyone turned out fine(well not everyone, but a large portion of people did) so we took a leaf out of their book and are waiting, though I have to say that the waiting is killing me, I'm very excited for this addition to our family!! The pregnancy has been fairly kind to Holly, as far a pregnancies go, that is not to say it had been easy for her, but we have not had a pregnancy wrought with complications; which has been a blessing!

I've been very busy musically, I've been in 4 bands in the last year. Kong, Sunset Superman, Wildfire, and my new group Monkey Wrench! Some bands were just month or two long fill ins, and others were bands that got started only to run out of gas, so to speak. Though I'm very excited about Monkey Wrench, as it has hit the ground running and shows no signs of stopping! You can check us out www.monkeywrenchbellingham.com if you like, I know you won't be disapionted!!

Johnson Outdoors shut it doors and shipped everything off to the east coast, so for the first time in ten year I found myself looking for a job, which; needless to say is pretty stressful when you have a child on the way and have never even typed up a resume(I got the job at Johnson at 19 when I pop ed my head in the office door and said "Hey I heard you might be hiring") but fate has a way of turning crap into gold sometimes. After two weeks on unemployment, a family friend got me in touch with the right people at Hardware Sales in the Internet division! I love it!! They say it's all about who you know! Of course that is not to say I'm incompetent at my job.

That's all for now, as NCIS in on and I'm for some reason wondering why I've never watched the show before, so I'm gonna get off the computer and watch some boob tube.

thanks for reading my ramblings, and the next few posts should have some more humor in them, not today though as I left my sense of humor at work.
