So I ran into (not physically, but almost) a mother of a long time friend and it was fun to see her. WE chatted for a bit, and she told me that she actually knew about much of the new things in my life and admitted she was a blog stalker. We laughed and had a nice little chat, but as I was walking away, I thought to myself, "I should blog more." But honestly, what on EARTH do I blog about these days? Im not in paradise, I don't have anything life threatening or exciting to blog about, and Im just a boring guy with a phenomenal wife.
But I guess I should blog about my life. I cant really go into specifics with my job because of confidentiality, but I can still talk about it a bit. Needless to say my job is awesome! I love it. It is so much fun... SO much fun. Every day is different, and the kids are SO cute. They are just so innocent and fun loving, and when they have their "moments," most of the time its really funny. I also learn a lot from them, especially about confrontations and people interactions. Most of you know me very well, and know that I'm a very non-confrontational person. But many of these kids have no proper perception of what is proper to do and say among people and what is not, and that is why we are they, to help them use their words, to teach them proper social interactions, and how to live on their own. So, when the students have a problem with other people in society, we have to coach them to use their words to express how they feel, what they don't like, and how to fix the situation. Often it can be quite uncomfortable, but it really helps ME learn about how to deal with uncomfortable situations and problem/conflict solving.
So anyway, I am thoroughly enjoying life right now. Oh, something else that happened is that my computer pretty much blew up and died. Luckily I purchased an extended warranty, and so it is being fixed for free ( HP "fixed" it once and sent it back to me, but it still wouldn't work. So I'm sending it back.) Hopefully it will eventually work right.
Lastly, Lianna and I sent out our Christmas cards in February, and if you didn't one, its because we didn't have your address, so please, send me your addresses in one way or another so we can add you to our cool-people-list-with-whom-we-will-stay-in-contact. Take care everyone!

That wouldn't be my mom now would it?
(She told me she ran into you...haha!)
GREAT POST! (see, I told you I'm a stalker!)
Posts are always great when I am mentioned :~) . It was wonderful to see you yesterday. You look great and oh, so happy. I enjoyed your notes about work. I worked in special ed for 6 years and still feel attachments so some of those kids. What a joy they can be.
I read Lianna's post this morning as well. I was thinking how lucky you are to have your own personal massage therapist!
Um...we didn't get a card even though I SAID I wanted one and told you Mom has our address...in her address book...in the house you live in...which you have access to whenever you want...
