Best moment of my life so far....

Best moment of my life so far....

Tuesday, April 6

A first for everything

Ok, so I have always sort of shied away from "blogging", "tweet/twit/twot-ing" and all that. Never understood it, never really felt that what I'm doing every day is worth writing down and other people reading about it. That may not change. There might not be a single person that reads this, but maybe this will be sort of like a journal... which I've never done either. Regardless, this is my first blog... and I will not tweet. Ever.

But how do you really start these things? Do you write a little about yourself? I mean, anyone that reads this would probably be someone that knows me, so why tell them all about me? Maybe I'll skip that whole part, tell some stories about what's going on with me, what I'm learning, etc. and through those things you will discover a little more about me.

Right now I'm working from home because my dog (Brutus, 5 yr old Boxer) is recovering. He had five tumors on his butt and had surgery last Friday to have them removed. $800 and about 150 stitches later he is laying on my floor sleeping it off. I'll post a picture later, but his butt looks like a 3 yr old kid tried to put together a patchwork quilt while drunk. This makes Frankenstein look like a work of art. He is recovering pretty well, but the stitches, cuts, and scars look something like a map of Atlanta... lines going all over the place, branching out from a central circle. I definitely see I-285 and I-85N... the rest are surface streets I guess. Feel bad for the dude, but he is a champ, and as soon as the stitches are removed next Monday, I'm sure he will be right back to chasing a tennis ball with more passion than most of us have for anything in life! Seeing him in pain has made me wonder what it's like to be a dad and watch your little kid go through something. They don't understand what you're saying and they cannot comprehend that the pain they are in is actually going to benefit them later... But wait, he's just a dog right? Wrong. If you think that, you've never met Brutus...

Ok, so this has been a start... Not really sure what to do next... Do I sign off with a "Sincerely" or "Thanks"? Or do I just sort of let my thoughts trail off and pick it up next time....
