Time to move

So this weekend we head to Dallas to take a look at some apartments. In just two weeks, I start work, leaving Erin and Rivers here for a bit until we can get everything moved. Hopefully I won't be too long on my own.

It's hard to believe we are finally taking this step, since College Station has been such a huge part of our lives for so long. But at the same time, I think we are excited. I don't think that either one of us feels that we are leaving too much behind. We are enjoying our little family so much, and to be honest, there are many here who I would have thought I would miss that have revealed themselves to be merely "fair-weather" friends at best. For those of you who don't fit into this category, I will miss you. More than anything, however, I feel excitement to be able to begin this new journey with my wife and daughter. Here's to the new chapter!

Today I signed with Purvis Industries, and I start the sales training program in July. Little Rivers will be joining us Monday, if not before. For the first time in a long time, I feel like things are finally paying off. I thank God for looking out for us, even if it wasn't in the time frame we wanted. I am so excited to start this new adventure, both the career and being a parent. And I ask God to give me the graces and blessings to excel at both.

Guys. Really. About half of my friends are so far up Obama's ass that I will never see them until 2012. The other half are firm believers in the "Miss Bush yet?" battlefields. Is there ANYBODY left out there who has the cajones to admit that Democrats and Republicans are equally (genius) and maybe it's time we started thinking for ourselves? I will be eagerly waiting for your responses.
