Updates

... Jacob is rocking Kindergarten. He's destroying it. The kid likes to learn and he's good at it. He's lapping the field. We're very proud of him.

... We went to Arizona for the week of Thanksgiving. It was a good time. I enjoy warm weather. It was good to see Jen's Uncle Bob and Tommy boy. Best of all, we could wear shorts comfortably.

... I'm sick of games of chicken with everything. Politics is a series of brinkmanship tactics and it's getting really really old. Even the NBA ended up being a big game of chicken. We will have a 66 game season. I am happy the NBA is back, but the first Nugget news is that Nene won't be re-signing with Denver. Just when I was getting happy to have basketball back in my life. D'oh!

... I'm going to be reading a few science fiction books to end the year. That should be interesting. This year has been a good reading year.

... I now work for Kaufman & Findley, P.C., which is nice.

... I'm only asking for amazon gift certificates for Christmas so that I can load up on kindle books. Lots of good books to read.

... Jacob and I have been going to a church in town I discovered through a funeral service. Very good pastor who preaches very intellectually. It's very entertaining to hear him preach.

... I finished War & Peace and changed its ranking from 8 to 2 on my all-time list.

... One new year's resolution at a time will lead a person to success. With that in mind, I'm thinking of making the expansion and sharing of my story that goal. That and more books read than this year.
