So this blog’s been up for quite a while now and I’ve yet to make a real post on it. Considering that we pay for the damn thing I may as well get started and use it for something other than a jumping off point to our flickr account. So…. Lifes been pretty busy lately as it always seems to be and in spite of the fact that I only just returned from abroad I’m already in need of another vacation. Work’s a thankless mind numbing exercise in repetition and while I fight the urge to walk out the door halfway through my shift almost daily, it’s a half-decent gig considering that we have three days off together and dont have to hire a sitter for Isa. It’s hard not to look for purpose in your daily routine though and I’m forever frustrating myself when I don’t find any satisfaction in what I do. Sure there are moments when I feel little spurts of satisfaction when i do what i do well but all too quickly wilts to a mild embarrassment that it even came to me in the first place. Thankfully though business has been pretty brisk in spite of the economy and we’ve been reviewed very well in numerous magazines which explains our top 10 rank in reservations. Funny how I’ve found myself doing the very thing that i’m probably have the least nack for. And not so funny that I’ve painted myself into a corner and am now faced with a milder case of the “strippers dilemma” wherein I’ve developed a lifestyle that depends on the amount of money I make but now that I’ve reached the dead end of it, have to backtrack financially in order to pursue another path./p>
sigh.
Aside from the above things are pretty damn great on the home front. Isa has been as impressive as ever and these past few days have been sunny and warm. We’ve been out on the deck a lot during the day and this morning we found some little splinters in both of her feet. I feel a bit crappy about that but she doesnt seem to mind much and she loves being outside. We try to make it to the park every other day or so to do some swinging. While we’re at home we practice walking the walk and talking the talk. She’s gettin there on both fronts too. She’ll stand on her own nowadays for about 20 seconds or so and shes showing alot more interest in saying things like “bring on the boobies, i’m famished.” and “there’s crap in my pants. please remove it.” We took a little day trip last week to Tennesee Beack up in Marin and I’ve posted a few pictures if anyone’s interested.
