I took my buddy to court today. He got his second DUI. Man, you have got to be careful. Anyway-

I find myself really thinking about money these days. Found out (after trying for a while) that Wendy and I are going to have a kid(s). We go for an ultrasound Friday to find out if it's more than one. I have never been so excited about anything in my life. I am also very nervous, which is why I've been thinking about money so much. Wendy has been in school for so long, which has been a huge sacrifice for both of us. We have been living in her sister's basement for almost a year now, and still have saved very little money. As least we are finally getting some of our debt paid down.

It seems to me that so many people in the world fall into jobs that they are so unqualified for. I mean, I know way too many people my age that are making 5X what I am making. I guess that is partly my fault for becoming a teacher. It certainly has its days of making you "feel good", being rewarding work and all, but will never give you total financial security. I have been living paycheck to paycheck for 4 years now. Time for change.
...Smile, today could be your last.
