Thanks guys!
Yeah, turned out okay.
Had a little heart to heart with the boss today, hoping to make some moves either within the company structure or at least financially to help support the coming fam. I really think he heard me, was very receptive to my points, now I just need to do my part and keep putting in the hours. Got home and mama took me out to see the new X-Men movie. Have to really give her credit though, she made this birthday pretty great since we knew we couldn't do much for a night out on a Tuesday. This past weekend she lined up one of my favorite local bands from my bar days to come play at a local joint, corralled a bunch of old buddies I haven't seen in a while, and had my best man do up a nice spread of brats, onions, kraut, and pulled pork. All a surprise. (That she pulled off masterfully I might add) A good birthday indeed! Hell, a good birthWEEK!
