Auld Lang Syne

Proper new post coming soon, I promise, but in the meantime: if I may bring out an old cliche, it's funny how quickly life changes, isn't it? Two years ago right now Ann and I were outside a bar in Washington D.C., trying to hail a cab after going out with one of Ann's college friends and her new boyfriend (now fiancee), on our last "young couple" vacation before trying to get pregnant. Tonight? I gave my 14-month-old daughter a bath, put her in her crib, watched "Julie & Julia" with Ann (don't revoke my man card), and sat quietly on the couch in front of my TV watching Dick Clark count down to the New Year. (And wincing when he missed a number. Poor guy.) That is... quite a change, but not one I regret in the slightest.

It's been a long, tough year, folks, but thanks for sticking with me. Here's to a brighter 2010!
