I'm Embarrassed.
I've Finally Given Up Resisting
And now, I number myself as one of the teeming millions of iPhone users. My previous phone was unusable (I mean, 7 hours of battery life is just ridiculous). Seeing how I've blasted the device at every conversation I've had (and overheard) about it, I feel rather silly now that I'm discovering how nifty it really is. 12 hours after being iPhone-d, I must say that I am quite impressed. What would probably impress most is that I paid just $148 for it. Seriously, it was the cheapest smart phone I could find. Cheap rocks, man.
We're All Down With Something, and It's The Boy's Fault
He caught something from someone – and we've stopped trying to figure out who – and he's been a vector for disease ever since. The wife has been busy day and night chasing the bug down with meds. She's entirely zonked out. For me, I was panting trying to help her clean and drug the boy up over the weekend (I'm part of the diversion effort; you should see me dance), so I'm glad that we've at least broken the fever. Now it's just the cough, sneezing and diarrhea to deal with.
We've Made Some Headway
I promised to give you some idea on how we're doing on the financial front, and after a couple of months of struggle, I'm glad to say that we're making some progress on it. I'm still resolute on making a single income work out for my family, because it is worth striving for. More updates when I can make them.
A Personal Legend
I've been mulling over this one for a week, after someone threw this (and a bunch of other questions) at me to think about. What kind of life am I committed to living? What mark will I leave once I've done what I've sought out to do? Why should I live at any levels less than gloriously? Yeah, I know what you think. But don't tell me it's fluff, until you're able to answer those with the truth.
And, after all, there's no point living if you're not living true to your truest self.
(p.s. More pictures of the family once I'm done toying with apps on my iPhone.)
