new headliner & present

In the grand spirit of the most egotistical Christmas present ever - I give you this link.

There, you'll find each headliner image I've used this year - in case you found any one particularly funny or rediculous.

Enjoy the new headliner. And yes, it's included in the present.

overpasses & home

After driving under an overpass today I realized that for the past few years, and for the foreseeable future, I will be driving under exactly one overpass on my drive home from work. True, I don't live where I used to, but I definitely can appreciate consistency. Why, do I think of such things? Well, it all started when I began listening to The Killers album "Sams Town" in 2006. This has slowly become one my most favorite discs in my collection. I throw the CD in the player, and almost instantly the worst day in my life can melt away like a springtime thaw. But I digress - I play the CD and I can just tune out and think. The disc is THAT good. I'll listen to the title track to that disc quite frequently and just tune into the outside world on my ride home.

That's how I came to the conclusion that I encounter exactly one overpass during my drive home.

new home

So I've been moved into our new home for about a week and a half now, and I'm seemingly supposed to have a grip on all things boxed. I'd have to be hallucinating if I thought this house was becoming any more box-free. I'm guessing I'll work through these as I've worked through all my life's compartmental issues - I'll either put em in the attic or toss em in the basement for later review!

Here I am, all grown up. The owner of a newly renovated home and a father-to-be. Reese is definitely pregnant! We went to our first doctor's visit last week and got grilled by the doctor about our family history. I didn't need to answer much, but I considered myself the "Mike Tomlin" of the meeting:

"We'll take it one day at a time. We're gonna continue to do what we do... Mitch Berger..."

New baby, or "Shrimp" as Reese calls it, will tell us whether it's a male or female sometime in March. (And quite honestly, it does not matter to me what the sex is - I just want what's best for the shrimp: to be healthy, happy and RICH BEYOND THEIR WILDEST DREAMS)

We've decided on names. Actually, we've been set on those for a while. If it's a girl, her name will be Gladys Alice Cat Stevens Crockett. A boy - Ron Burgundy Balthazar "The Duke" Crockett.

november headliner

I lazily added a November theme'd headliner. Took me all of two seconds to create. Yeah, holiday spirit!

I might improve it as November drags on.
