Here I am again

Well hello, everyone. Nice to see you all again, even if it is virtually. I'm sitting here on the couch again (what that means is there will be no pictures on this post: see previous discussion regarding wireless internet and inability to upload photos) watching CSI Miami and having a good laugh. What a show. Stellar acting, total believability. Great stuff. What a steaming pile of meh.

Wow, tangent. Let's get back on track, shall we? Here's the latest news. We went to the doctor's today to get the ol' checkup done. (*CSI Miami side note: Okay, why would that guy, as a suspect, bring a knife into police HQ when being questioned regarding a murder? Anyone know what I'm talking about? Like I said, excellent show*). Here's the Theo-related news: in the past week, he's gained 10 oz and now weighs in at 8 lbs, 8 oz. Nice. What a guy. He's very healthy all-told, and the doctor's given him a clean bill of health. We're feeling really good about that, let me tell you. Now we don't have to go back to the doctor's for three weeks. Imagine, three whole weeks without having to go to the doctor's office. That hasn't happened in about four months. It's going to be like a vacation.

Okay, I couldn't resist another witty TV-related side-note. I think I'm going to start another blog where I just comment on what I see on TV. For example, did you know that Maria Sharapova is now the spokes(wo)man for Lady Speed Stick? I could take that so many places that I honestly don't know where to start. Could you imagine making a living off a blog like that? Wow, getting paid to sit on the couch, watch TV, and be witty. Oh man, that's my dream job.

Hey, speaking of jobs, here's a little bit of shameless self-promotion, or maybe it's something else. No matter what it's called, the best adjective to describe it is definitely "shameless." Anyway, many of you know that I'm currently "between jobs" at this moment in time (that's a nice way of saying that I'm unemployed). Steph is getting EI payments, which cover our mortgage, and we're lucky enough to have parents who really want to help us through this time, but it's time for me to get a job. Ideally, of course, I'm looking for work as a pastor, but at this point I just need something to hold me over until I can finish my degree. So, anyone got any leads for me? If you know of anything (and I'm not talking about "Hey Mark, I hear McDonald's is hiring), leave a comment here and I'll get back to you. Thanks kindly.

Okay, that's enough of that, I suppose. Nice talking to you all again. We've got a whackload of pictures to upload, so look for them in the next couple of days. Thanks for your patronage--see you again soon.
