Wow... it's been since October 2007 since I posted on this. Blame a wedding, honeymoon, new car, sold car, sold house, new house, numerous semesters of school, and all sorts of haywire at work. Oh... and there's facebook too.

Not that anyone is listening but here's a quick (nearly instant) update.

The wife and I sold the house in Jonesboro and bought a place in Fayetteville. Its nice to have a home that we picked for ourselves. We still have the three cats that we had after we put Nuno down (see previous post) but will be adding a bull mastiff puppy to the household here in a few weeks. Should be fun.

We've become pretty active in our local church and its nice to have a marriage that is on the same note regarding its dedication to God.

I've become a BBQer... I got a sidebox smoker a few months ago and have been diligently perfecting smoked pork shoulder and beef brisket. I'll admit that I've had some pretty good success thus far.

Still riding the motorcycle. Spent about 6 months or so as a single car family which meant I commuted on the bike rain or shine, cold or hot. Its nice to have another car now so that I can take a break during the summer months and not sweat my nethers off.

School continues... I'm about half way there and aside from my first two B's last semester, I've had a 4.0 average since I started back to school way back in 2006. In fact, I was chosen by the History faculty at Clayton State University as the 2009-2009 winner of the Excellence in History award. Nice to have my efforts validated :)

That's all for now. Hope to be back before another two years passes.

Ciao!
