Before I forget, My Facebook friend, Denise’s son needs your votes:

Ok, back to the blog, So I got a call from a resume I sent out for a radio producer position in Los Angeles!  It’s not until the middle of next week, so all I can do is stress for 5 days!  I did go get a haircut tonight… I told the stylist I needed something that would get me a job, so now I look respectable… Well, as respectable as I can!
Here’s a fun idea for you part-time parents like me, when I know I won’t see the kids for a while (there is a point in the month where I don’t see the kids for 7 days), gather up their favorite toy or blanket.  At my house we keep “New Baby” and a duplicate of Lucy’s “BoBo Blankie”.  Then, depending on how soon I get working on it, I either take them to places the kids like to go (The park, our favorite restaurant, the pool, etc.) or I pose them with some of their things around the house (their books, in their beds, playing with their toys) and I snap some photos.  Then I use my home printer to make postcards (They sell postcard backs that adhere to 4×6 prints) and right a message on them from the blankie.  I never own up to taking the pictures, in fact I never bring it up at all, I wait for them to tell me “New Baby went to Panera” or “BoBo was reading my shark book”, they get a huge kick out of it… And it passes some time when they’re not here.
I was explaining to my friend the other night, I’m “unsettled”… In fact I was forcefully unsettled.  What I meant is that I was really happy being settled down, having a wife and kids, spending Friday nights getting caught up on the shows we TiVo’d after the kids went to bed.  Now I have been thrown back into being single… I’ve been unsettled!  I need to reacclimate to being alone, not having a partner.  It’s weird going from being the single guy, all alone, to family man, to right back where I started (Only worse off).  I guess it’s just something else I have to get used too.
Get caught up on all the top hits of last year in four minutes!
