No one will enjoy watching this but it's so dang weird!

Get this... this is Leonard Nimoy (Spock from Star Trek) singing a song he wrote called "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" It's funny, car-wreck interesting, and sorry, Spock creepy as all get-out.

Life is normal?

Sitting here at 8:30am watching Jack finish up his cereal and listening to Eme sing. Life has achieved some sort of routine. I'm finding out how much I crave a routine. You know that feeling of "I have a handle on what's going to happen today and when". I know we don't have a right to such a feeling as anything can happen anytime, and God normally has a way of flipping our day on it's head. But I am very happy now that Jack is over his killer flu that I gave him (oops) and Eme is adjusted to going to the sitter when Erin and I both work.

Erin is shoulder-deep in tax season with all the stress that brings along with it. My first day at work was yesterday and I loved being back. Jesse said it best when he said, I never realized how much we all are family. And that is true. I missed not only my tech team guys who I hang out with and are some of my best friends, but also the rest of the staff. It's amazing how lucky I am to work with friends.
