been working all weekend to clean up a database that someone else built and left in ruins. This has been my life for the last 36 months. I'm sick of it. Once, just once I want to build a database from scratch, the right way, and get paid for it. Ergh. Anyways... I've spent way too much time working this weekend and I'm nowhere near... Read More

you can at least say it's good for business, but it's like being Giovanni Ribisi in movies. For some reason he always plays a retarded guy when we all know he's capable of so much more. 
I hate being able to see the writing on the wall. It's only a matter of time, and probably not a lot of time, before one of us throws in the towel and ends the relationship.
She wants kids and wants a man who wants kids. I don't know if I do and I don't feel good making her wait while I figure that out....

yeah, I was in your spot not too long ago. I was dating this hot, blonde gymnast girl from my English Comp class and I didn't realize how much of a raging pothead she was. We got along great, but her habits really bothered me and she knew it. I could have stayed with her and helped her out on her habits, but I went with my gut of cutting the ties and moving on. I don't know if I made the right choice to be the stubborn asshole instead of the accepting and guiding boyFRIEND. Fate made it all work out the way it was going to, so I can't have regrets now.
As far as your situation... I would consider what's more there for each other before considering anything else. Afterall, it's a matter of "do you want to live the rest of your life with this person?". Some people change and some don't. If she doesn't adhere to the straight edge lifestyle, it's not something to hold against her. It's very well possible that if you choose to have kids, her cessation of drinking during pregnancy will carry on after (perhaps permanently). Just listen to all the signs and ask outside advice before making a definite decision.
The grass might be greener on the other side of the fence, but you can always water your yard.

Picked up another job today. Cool group of guys who make the templates for greeting cards you can buy at target photo centers. They need a translator to make new templates for the different kind of hardware used for printing. They're geeky enough that I won't have to do much geek to human translating and that's a good thing.

I can't believe this... I'm buying a house. Every day I wake up amazed by this fact. The whole thing is supposed to close by the end of the month. I'm horrified by the responsibility and totally psyched by the opportunity. I don't know anyone who's lost money on a house. I never thought I would do it, but after a few years living in...

My cat is sitting on my feet, making it utterly impossible to get out of bed. But who would want to get out of bed on a day like today? The sky is so overcast it doesn't look like there's a sky at all. It's just grey and dark. Bleh.

that sucks, because it's super nice here in Texas. Do you know of Dustin Herron by any chance?

Nope, not that I know of... But the name sounds vaguely familiar. Where would I know him from?
