First Time For Everything...(that's what she said)

I have been inspired to keep a blog. Why? Because my life is interesting enough to document? Questionable. Because I am in love with myself and enjoy my own reading? Possible. Because other people want to read it and make small talk over it? Doubtful. The truth is I am doing it and anything beyond that one simple fact is either speculation or you know me better than I know myself. (which is highly possible but again unlikely...)

My Goal: Keep this blog basically edit free aside from error corrections because nobody like reading write that is not wrote good. Also, I enjoy typing.

Lately I have been a bit like "Michael Scott" in that I continually listen to conversations for a string of innocent words which I can quickly turn into a simple dirty joke by uttering the great words, "That's what she said." In fact, it has gotten to the point where the words do not even need to be spoke for the joke to be enjoyed. This is true comedy. So if you see me laughing without being a part of the conversation... I probably twisted your words and mentally added a "
that's what she said" line. Either that or.... well to be honest I don't feel like thinking of what else I could be laughing about because it could be just about anything, like "Bob Loblaw."

Speaking of firsts... I am ever so close to being a first time father.

So I just realized that before creating this Boblog and writing this first Blog... Carrie told me (Before she fell asleep and I was still browsing people's facebook pictures) not to do anything embarrassing.... I wonder if this Blog would count. I suppose I will leave her the judge of that... or too all you viewers... er, readers out there. (I say that believing I will never actually post this blog and nobody will ever actually read it.)

I just realized I might be one of those boring bloggers... (you know the ones that blog about blogging, and describe their lives that really the only people that would care are actually with them when these events happen.) I might just feel this way because I hate long blogs because I am a slow reader.... again boring.


Okay real reason I started this blog.....


I am actually in a very happy state in my life right now. The past four weekends Carrie, Jessie and I have been heading back to Midland for numerous events, including two baby showers. After this past weekend, while driving home I had a revelation. I have never been happier in my life than I am right now. (if you don't like this crap, I don't care... stop reading and come back for the next blog) I am merely weeks away from becoming a Father and I am so EXCITED. My love for our unborn child is unbelievable and I can't imagine what it will be like when she comes. Over these past weeks we have been blessed so many times over I cannot begin to give enough thanks. It is truly humbling to have such great friends and family in our lives and Evie is going to be the first luckiest girl of "the next generation" of kids.

Okay last sappy thing in this blog.... I am also so Happy that I married into a family and got such great Brothers and Sisters. Over the past four weekends with Jane and Ben currently in a state of transition (congrats on the HizOUSE!(stupid I know)) we have all been "living" under one roof for a couple days a week. How awesome is that?! I'll tell you, its pretty freakin' sweet dude. From the little ones to the Big kids, I love them all and .... dang it I am getting sappy again!! This stuff is much better said face to face but I just need to express it now. I tell Carrie all the time how much I love her family... so if you doubt me ask her. okay, I am done. (If you want me to let you know how great you are... just insert your name everywhere it seems apropriate)

LAST CALL
This is a new segment I'm calling "Last Call".... basically it is the end of my Blog.

My Last Call tonight is to the Detroit Lions. You suck.
