The Happenings

Well, our yard sign was stolen. We filed a police report about it, but I don't expect to see much more than that. We've got a back up but tomorrow we're going to Home Depot and buying enough material for 10-20 signs.

Tomorrow is my final for my 8th class out of 12. If all goes well I graduate in May. It is not immediately apparent if I'll be able to use my Masters to get more money at this point, since new careers of any kind are likely to be on hold for...a while, but things are going moderately well at my current job so that's OK. Still, I need to pass an exam called the PMP, which is like the bar for lawyers or certification for Accountants. It's basically one you need to pass if you're going to work in that field. I plan to start studying in November and hopefully take it in March.

We plan to start trying for children in about two weeks. Right now I'm driving Jennifer to the MARTA station for work every day and picking her up on the way home. We've been doing it for 6 weeks or so and it seems to be working well.

Played Axis and Allies with some friends on Wednesday. It was the new version, much more balanced. I (and my partner) got Crushed. Jennifer and the other two wives present played Settlers of Catan and had a much nicer time.

We saw "City of Ember" last week. We had a free movie ticket from their frequent pass thing. It is pretty good, but probably better for DVD. We liked it though. We saw "Burn After Reading" the week before that. Not exactly family friendly that one.

L! *YAY*!

Or you could just chain yours down the way Skip did ours. It's worked pretty well so far. :)
