Danni's blog

September 15th, 2006

OK, it took awhile to convince her, but Danni O’Neill finally caved in to my suggestions and got herself a blog. Took me awhile to set her up with blogger yesterday after work, but I finally got her going.

It’s amazing what you forget after 8 months or so, which is how long my blog’s been in existence now. More accurately, how long it’s been since I established something else that needs more attention than I give it. Funny how at this point in my life not as much changes in 8 months as used to change. I’m still happily married, my kid’s getting older, I still have the same job and live in the same city, even the same house. Do you guys remember when it seemed your life had a huge change every other week? It was like that for me in the navy. I was always moving to a new city, visiting another country (which isn’t as exciting as it sounds – basically just changed the kind of beer we sat at bars and drank), deciding on my future, etc. It just always seemed like something was going on. Even when I got out it was like that. In 8 months, someone would gain like, 50 lbs, or someone would get married and divorced, or I would go through another 3 jobs.

I guess I reached where I was gong all those years. That’s weird. Have I peaked at (almost) 34? I don’t feel unfulfilled at all. I feel pretty content, actually. I accomplished more than I realistically planned. I’m obviously not a rock star or billionaire, but I didn’t seriously think that would happen anyway. I mean, I have the same long term goals now that I had a few years back, but those will be accomplished with time as long as I don’t screw anything up.

This is a really weird feeling. I don’t know if I should be happy or depressed.

    That actually sounds kinda depressing to me, but then again my marriage was completely miserable. You seem to have a good family, and also seem to have alot of free time on your hands to come up with the stuff you come up with, so I would probably be happy in your situation.

    Nah, I don't really have much free time. The stuff I think of is generally thought up on the way to or from work while I'm in the truck not listening to a radio.

    So in a way you can blame all the suff you come up with on your uncle for not hooking you up with a deal on a stereo then.

    Sounds like a good plan to me. It's worked so far.
