Time. Where for art thou time?

Holy crap! It's been almost a year since I've posted anything on here. Crazy.

Well, let's get into this, shall we?

A lot has changed since the last post. I do have a job. We'll leave it at that and revisit that another day.
Another year and no school. I really do need to get back. I finally figured out what I want to do with my life. Well two things really. I touched on the Sports Management thing last time so I won't go into all that again. However, it does tie in to one of the things I want to do. I want to coach. Baseball. I want to make a difference in young people's lives as far as the game is concerned. I've played my whole life. I've had great teachers. I know I can can be a good influence on young players. The other thing started out as a hobby and just a good time with friends. I am in the process of getting an entertainment website up and running. When I say entertainment I don't mean porn. Sickos. Get your mind out of the gutter. I mean movies, music, video games, comics, tv and maybe the occasional sports reference. I'm talking reviews, news, video, audio, polls, top tens and yes friends, a podcast. Some friends and I started a blog awhile back doing these very things. It was for fun and for me, making little jabs at some big entertainment sites for what they were posting. For what they were calling news. Ha ha. Funny still. Anyway, I got together with them and discussed the idea of a website. They were all on board. So the ideas started. It's still a work in progress at this point in time, but as soon as it happens, I'll be linking/hyping it here. I'm actually really excited about it. I know I'm not the greatest writer in the world but who really cares, right? As long as it's entertaining. This is really right up my alley. I have many loves in my life. My wife. My kids. But, I also have baseball and entertainment. Movies and comic books at the forefront. I've seen too many movies to count and there's still a huge list that I want to see. I'm no critic, but I love to talk about movies. It's the same with comics. I grew up with comics. I think it was a combination of being influenced by my brother and my uncle Mike. Both were comic fans. I'm just rambling now. The point is these are both things I want to see happen within the next few months. School might be the harder of the two to get started, but I'm not giving up. I'll try and keep you posted.

What else?

My kids are growing up faster than I could have possibly imagined. My son is in 8th grade! 8th! Where did that time go? He's slowly becoming a young man. I'm proud of him. Doing great in school. Enjoys band. Even got him playing baseball...bonus! My daughter is growing like a weed. She turns three in a couple months. Scary stuff. She is already half my height. Half! 3 years old! Weird, right? I love her. She's very much daddy's little girl.

My wife is great. Put up with me for 11 years now. I don't know what else to say. I love her. She means the world to me. Just wish I could see her a little more. Job thing. Again, touch on that another time.

Hopefully, in the days to come, I'll have some good news to share. Only time will tell.
