What Did Mikey Get?

-
I'm still actually pretty speechless about this year, but in a good way..

I GOT MY iPOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's an amazing piece of machinery. I've loaded my music already. That only took 3 hours to sync. Now I am putting videos on there. I can't for the life of me begin to fill this thing, but I'm going to try my best. Janine, thank you. I have been wanting and wishing and praying that I would get an iPod and now I finally have it. I'm shocked and amazed and so happy to have it.

Damn, I love her.

Her mom got us a new DVD/VCR combo. Our DVD player had pretty much hit the crapper a long time ago. The big challenge now is to get the surround sound set up properly. I also got a really nice shirt from her as well. Rachel and Andy are offering to help us clean off our back porch, and Wes got me a gift card to Best Buy. I used that already purchasing a case for the iPod.
My parents gave Janine and I some cash, always the coolest of presents.

All in all, not a bad grab for this year! I got Janine a digital camera. Now I can upload pictures and video into the blog and make it that much more personable. Most important, we will be able to record and save the memories that we are going to make over the next several years of our lives.

I'm off to sync up some video. Wish me luck!

    I'm glad you like it baby. I love you very much. I hope that the Ipod has bought me a get out of jail free card for some of my more unscrupulous behavior. : )

I moved to Richmond in September, full of aprehension. Many of you by keeping up with my story know full well the ups and downs that I have faced. I was very fortunate to land a great job in October. After a lot of rejection, and fear for losing everything I started my new job with that same fear I had when I moved to this city. I was crammed in an office with Kelly Stern. He is such a kind, patient, gentle soul. He showed me around and I got comfortable working there really fast. I smile when I remember one of my coworkers talking about us giggling in there all day. I had fun those days. It did not take me long to find out that Kelly was gay. He mentioned living with Jeff, and I put two and two together fast. Kelly listened to my troubles, and gave me sound, firm advice. He has been so helpful to me also by taking me home from work almost every day and taking me by the grocery store to get supplies. I would not still be here if it was not for his help. I cannot think of a way to

My Wiiview

You all may be familiar with my Wii saga. Janine told me on my birthday in March that we were going to purchase the console which made me very happy. I figured both of us would be able to enjoy the Wii so it was a better value. Being at least two hundred dollars cheaper than the other new consoles help make that an easy decision too. Little did we know that we were in the midst of trying to find one the most sought after pieces of hardware since Tickle Me Elmo. I remember going to at least 5 stores in March only to find laughter when asked if they had any of these Wiis in stock. The manager of one store even told me that if I get in early enough, there may be two consoles, but I better bring a bat because the soccer moms trying to find them as well may have rabies. So Janine and I pretty much gave up on finding the new Nintendo console until last week when I was shopping for her iPod Nano. Sitting there in the back of the store were three Wiis. So now I have my toy hooked up and after

Dear Topaz, Today was a very good day. It was seasonable, but a little warm for this late in September. The sun was out, and some clouds rolled in. It felt like a pretty normal day. Work went well. Of course, being Friday, people are in better spirits and with some of the senior leadership out of the office, a few extra laughs were had with my associates. The ride to work and home was fairly typical. There's still entirely too many people who would prefer to focus on other things rather than driving. It's also nice to see some people heading out of town. I always imagine they're going a happy occasion to see family or celebrate a birthday or a wedding over the weekend. The boys are doing well. Their grades are holding up. Of course, they're both grounded, for various things. Their room's still a mess. The youngest is getting used to middle school and the oldest decided he likes Green Day. Janine and I are very disappointed in this development, and we ho
