I'm not sure why... but ok.

And so it begins... Again.

I've decided to give my blog another run, since I've had quite a few changes in my life lately. Nothing Earth-shattering, just a lot of the realizations and revelations that come with age.

One of the recent developments has been a tolerance for talk radio. I didn't say a preference, just a tolerance. My job requires a lot of time on the road, and I've found myself turning to Dennis Miller, Jerry Doyle, and a few others I'd rather not name just yet. I'm sure in future postings I'll share my rants, but I would say Dennis and Jerry are the ones I enjoy most, by far. I don't necessarily agree with their opinions, but I like the way they talk to people and present their opinions.

My kids have pretty much been the biggest development since I stopped actively posting here.






















They both continue to grow like weeds, and I can't imagine being more proud of anything else.

I'm going to get this posted, and add more soon... I promise!

It's hard to believe, but Ryan started school yesterday. I'll get some more pictures and video up on our family website (http://www.grattan.us) this weekend.

Ryan was VERY excited to start school, and he's lucky enough to be going to a school with a friend that he's known all his life, Jacob.

More soon!

Another great passing...

First Gary Gygax passes away, and now Arthur C. Clarke... we need some new geek icons, and FAST!

Anyone got any suggestions?

By way of announcement...

It occurs to me that I've never really announced that we're pregnant, so consider this your notification!





Due in late June, and just found out today we're having another boy. I'm a little bummed, but NOT disappointed at all! I was just hoping for a girl for Shelley's sake, because I'm amazed every day she's able to deal with me and mini-me (Ryan)... having a mini-mini-me will surely push her past that sanity line...
