Recap

Since it has been two weeks since my last post, I decided to provide you with a snapshot of what's been going on in my life in the interim:

1) Trip to Illinois: We went to Carlinville, Illinois over Memorial Day weekend to visit Billy's parents. His cousin was getting married (well, technically his cousin is already married with two kids, but they had the party over the weekend). Billy's brother from Atlanta, J.C., and his wife and daughter (who is 5 months older than my son, Will) were there, as well, so it was a lot of fun to see the kids together. Granted, they can't really play together yet, but it sure is fun for the parents to make it look like they are playing together for the sake of photos. All in all, it was a good weekend, sans the plane ride home when Will decided to scream for about 20 minutes straight. There's really nothing you can do in an instance like this other than continually look at the passengers around you and mouth "sorry!". That, and pray for a good dose of turbulance to hopefully bounce the baby to sleep.

2) Interview: I had mentioned in a previous post that I had an interview with a company called Boundless Network for some potential contract work. Since then, I have gone back for two more rounds of interviews and they want me to come back one more time and meet with their CEO. All good times, but I'm getting the feeling this is going to turn into a full-fledged, full-time job and I'm not sure I'm ready for that right now. More to come on that...

3) Will: Not my son, this time. I'm talking about the legal document. Billy and I have finally gotten in gear and have met with a lawyer to discuss "our affairs", so to speak. A very strange thing to discuss such fun and light topics like what you want to have happen to you in certain medical situtations, who you want to be the guardian of your child, etc.

4) Sex in the City: I went to see this flick with a few of my lady friends last weekend and I have to say it was the strangest movie experience of my life. First, the theater was filled with women except for about three men who either had to feel horribly out of place or feel like they were in exactly the right place. Second, 95% of the attendees were dressed like Carrie Bradshaw. I'm talking cloth flowers pinned to their clothes, high heels that shouldn't be legal for walking and flashy jewelry. Third, I saw a group of girlfriends show up in a LIMO for the movie. Yes, I said limo. And no, this isn't New York City.

And that, my friends, gets us up to speed...
