Emptyin' the Noggin

I took a look at the blog tonight and realized I haven't put much up here in the past while. I guess in truth I haven't felt opinionated enough about any particular subject in the past month or so to sit and rant about it on the blog. So tonight I thought I'd follow the lead of my sister-in-law who from time to time puts out a bullet point list of things going on with her... her's are a lot more entertaining than mine, but hey, this will mean a new post for all the millions of readers (I like to dream big) of this blog.
  • We're having a baby! Probably anyone that reads this blog already knows the news, but the teacher is pregnant and we are quite excited for our new future. We've had a lot of fun just being the two of us for the last 3 years, but I'm pretty sure adding another to the crew will just mean more fun!
  • The new job is going well! I'll be honest, I have some days when I feel like I know what I'm doing and others when I feel a little lost still, but I guess that is normal for the first few months on the job. My editors haven't thrown me out for being a horrible writer yet, so hopefully things will continue to go well.
  • We just got back from a short adventure to San Diego! A few months ago we decided it was time for a short short get-away, so we planned a trip to one of our favorite places, San Diego. We went to Sea World and a Padres game. We also spent some time in beautiful La Jolla. We had a great time but unfortunately our camera came to its death during the trip. A waiter at one of the restaurants we ate at spilled water on it and it doesn't work anymore. So we went old school and bought a throw away camera, now we need to find a place that still develops film. Suggestions????
  • Today I attended my second Governor's press conference and I actually got a question in. They are filmed for TV and you'd think with my radio background I wouldn't get nervous, but for some reason bright lights can knock your thinking for a minute. I did get a question in today, which is one more than last month's conference, maybe I'll get a little more comfortable with the bright lights in the months to come...we'll see.
Well that's all I have for now. Other than the big addition to our family, nothing to exciting. I'll work on that for you. I'm sure more grand adventures await us! We are moving into my favorite times of the year. I love Summer (I try to convince myself summer starts in May). I love the sun light till 9 at night and I enjoy not being cold when I go outside. I like to golf and I like picnics. I like pools and amusement parks.I get to do all these great things every summer! This summer certainly will be an adjustment since I'm working full-time during summer for the first time, and have a pregnant wife, but we'll still find a way to have some fun I'm sure.

OH, I love La Jolla! We spent some time there in January when we were in southern California. It's so beautiful!
