Well it has been awhile since I have last posted hasn't it. A lot has gone on in my life over the course of these past couple of months. I found out that I am going to be a father early next year and as a result went out and got a 2nd job. I do not love it, but I have to do what I have to do.
The Presidential election campaign marches on, getting much more interesting this past Saturday when Paul Ryan was announced as Romney's vp choice. In my opinion it is a good choice and as last week went along I began to feel that it was really his only good option. The race is still close though right now I would give a slight edge to President Obama. I will cover the presidential race more in future posts.
Some of the changes going on in my life have gotten me thinking these past few months. I am never completely sure if that is a good or a bad thing. The prospect of fatherhood is both exciting and frightening, I am a known worrier so this comes as no surprise. I am a little proud of myself, I have at least tried to do things the right way, as well as anyone can I suppose. I went to college, got married, got a job, bought a house, and now I am having a child. My family is in a much better position than we would be if I was an unmarried high school graduate with part-time employment. It will still be a struggle of course, but at least we have a chance. Maybe I am old fashioned, cynical of our culture (collapsing), but I think there is something to be said for doing it the "right" way. Or at least trying to.
