Well it has been a little bit sine my last post.  Let's see here, what has been going on.  Since my last post... humm.. puh puh puh...  God, when I blog sometime it feels like it is forced.  What has been going on.. same ol' same ol', really..  I stay at home, take care of my son, ie: feed him, change him, read to him, nap him, feed him, change him, play with him, nap him, clean, walk dogs, feed fish.. read to myself.. try and find sometime to practice.. This past week I was supposed to have jury duty.. but it was cancelled. Which is.. good? I was looking forward to throwing a monkey wrench in some body's plan. I have often wondered if I could be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that someone is guilty.. I mean, how could you do that, unless we went back to the moment that the crime happened and watched it happen.  Wouldn't it all be speculation by the time evidence was presented to me? I mean do I understand it correctly, don't lawyers use the evidence available to paint pictures. To lead my thinking the way they want it to go.. just because the trial has a script doesn't mean that it really did or didn't happen that way? 

At the moment I feel drained.. I feel like I am rambling.. maybe I hate blogging.. I always come away from blogging with the feeling of frustration. I guess, I just don't feel like I have much to say.. I think my son will begin walking soon. I should say walking on his own soon. He is walking now with the assistance of Mommy or Daddy, the couch, a coffee table. The other day I watched as he walked alongside my wife, while she was holding just one of his hands.. I must say that I do think it is amazing to watch this little person be born.. and to see him grow.. i mean, I remember holding him only hours after he was born. Watching his eyes look at a night light in the hospital room, thinking to myself.. wow.. this is the first time this little guy has ever seen a night light, or a ceiling fan, or anything.. and now he is learning to walk. He can crawl and interact with the people and the world around him.  You never know if you are doing a good job as a parent.  He smiles a lot for me, so I guess I am doing something right.  My wife defiantly does a lot more reading on it than I do.. I have a hard time doing that.. I'll pick up some stuff and read here or there, just to gather some info. I try and learn from the experience. though i do see the obvious benefits of reading.. sometimes though, reading about where your child is in his/her development, I don't think is helpful.. They can't help where they are and there is only so much you can do.. i mean.. we can do math problems all day long, but if he can't learn it, because he is at that stage yet and he is unable at this point to understand and we all just gonna have to wait until he can understand, then teach him.. right??  You'd be surprised how long it takes baby boys to learn NO. and until he really gets it.. there isn't anything you can do.. except go with it.. you can't get mad at him.. at least not yet.. when he is 2.. then it's his a$$. ;) 

I can't believe that gas prices are going up, up and away again.. not even superman flies so high..
