Another month of hectic running. Sometimes if I close my metaphoric eyes, I run into metaphoric objects at high mmph (metaphoric miles per hour).
I know we are all busy, but sometimes I feel like I have the least diversity in my busy-ness. The last year has just been LOADs of work at my full time job, leaving little time to work on all my side jobs, and house projects.
But, enough boring stuff: Tamara & I are expecting another child. She is due around the middle of July. So, we are pretty excited about that.
Orianna had a blast this Halloween. She chose her own costume (a white kitty outfit). We were just thumbing through the rack of used costumes, and she latched on and kept saying "kitty" (or something roughly equivalent to that). I took her into the dressing room and was VERY glad that it fit her (or there would have been weeping, wailing, & gnashing of teeth... and gums).
My old roomate Shaun got me a video game called "Borderlands" and I have been dedicating time previously allocated to sleep to enjoy that with him. It is a pretty fun mix of FPS and RPG.
The only other news we have is that UDOT might end up bulldozing our home without ever telling us. They are building a freeway from my house, to the next big road to the west. They bought our neightbors on both sides of our house, and are going to demolish them. Naturally I called them asking if they were going to demolish my home. The nice lady on the line confidently assured me that they wouldn't, before telling me that she is new to this project and really doesn't know anything (very reassuring).
So, my new hope is that they will wreck our home while we are in it, and then pay us several times its value so that we wont interview with any local newspapers. So, maybe in a few months I will invite you all to my UDOT purchased mansion ;-) Here's hoping!
Well, we wish you all well,
-Rob, Tamara, Orianna, and androgynous-fetus

Congratulations!Hope that you have a house to bring the little one home to, and no, a cardboard box under a new bridge isn't home - despite what the government might have us believe
When I get into that state of metaphoric mind I try to use my metaphoric sonar sense to avoid running into metaphoric objects. I probably look metaphorically strange running around metaphorically screaming with my metaphoric eyes closed.
And you're right Rob, your busy-ness is probably a lot less intriguing then my busy-ness. I love learning (I just wish it wasn't being crammed down my throat).
Big congratulations on Tamara's pregnancy. We are very happy for you. Becky has written a very nice post on our blog this month about our struggles to have children. We are very happy for you(and a little envious).
I hope everything goes well with your house.
