This weekend I took the Concealed Carry course required by the State of New Mexico to obtain a permit to carry concealed. I must say it was an eye-opening experience. Before I went into the class, I thought 16 hours of instruction time was going to be too much. I now know that it was not nearly enough.

Wow. Alex is almost two. I don’t write very much these days, mostly because I am distracted by other things, but it’s amazing to me that a sperm and an egg that got together almost three years ago can now talk, walk, move things, point, cry, yell, scream, squeal, smile, pout, and just generally bring great frustration and great joy into my life. When people say they grow up so fast, you better believe they weren’t kidding.

Indiana Jones has been and will always be about the supernatural. George Lucas, who pretty much directs the character’s existence, has declared as much to be true. The supernatural leaves all kinds of things open for Indy to explore and/or be affected by, and some things in the supernatural world won’t sit well with fans who have their own ideas for what Indy should pursue.

I seem to have scheduled this just in time for my vacation! My appendix ruptured on Friday morning at around 12:30 AM. I have never felt so much pain in my life.

I did it. I got my eyes done with LASIK. And the results are amazing. I decided to write down my experience with the LASIK procedure so that others might know what really happens before, during, and after the procedure. Especially during, because there is no video or resource I have easily found that prepares you for that experience.

Again, we are superstitious people now that we have a baby on our hands, and we don’t want to jinx things. That’s why I write with trepidation that Alex is sleeping through the night. From 7:30 PM to 6:00 AM the next day. Wow.

I don’t want to jinx it, but the little man slept through the night last night and the night before. Yes, that’s right, he slept through the night. And I’m not talking about the medical definition of sleeping through the night (12 AM to 5 AM). He slept MORE than that.

I hereby declare The New Parent’s Sleep Manifesto. After 6+ months of broken sleep, I have created a manifesto whereby new parents may put themselves into the correct mindset to handle a newborn baby that doesn’t sleep through the night.
