Impending fatherhood is grand! Given that I am a motorcycle-riding trapeze playa and my love is a motorcycle-riding burlesque performer, I am certain our little girl will have some fun hobby options. We have a great community of friends who are dying to help teach her and I feel very fortunate for that.
So yes, I think having this little girl will be FUN but I also am all too aware of all the hard work that will be involved. Hell, she won't even here for another 4 months and I'm already in ass-busting mode. We're transforming our yard (fresh grass for crawling, big flagstone patio for entertaining, fire pit, etc), the garage, our closets, the baby room (used to be guest room), and so many other "nesting" necessitites. Right now I'm feverishly working on Mandarin so I can help teach her.
Momma is considering quitting her job so she can just freelance and take care of our little rabbit and while I'm all for that it also adds a bit of stress, given the economy, blah, blah, blah. That means I have to make sure I'm always marketable as a consultant and in addition to the new language I'm also focusing on some certifications (international program management, cloud computing, etc).
In a word, I am busy.
Oddly enough, I am also quite happy.

I've also been coming here less and less, mainly because of how insipid / uninspiring / unexciting the site has become to me. There are still pretty girls and sometimes wonderful sets, but most of the time surfing on here just makes me feel bad about being part of it. I don't want to give up on my values yet I don't want to give up 'tout court' on the website... erf.
The last words of your message really touched me, and I wish you too nothing but the best. x
