For those of you not on myspace, or at least those that didn't read/hear, we (my wife) had our daughter, Evelyn Ann Marie Thaxton, on Friday, August 3rd, at 4:21pm. She was born 7lbs 2oz, was 19.75" long, and had an 8-9 APGAR.

I was reading an article today that mentioned a coma case where a 50 year old woman went into a vegitative state in 1963, and awoke 30 years later to find out that she was now a 79 year old grandmother, man had landed on the moon, and the cordless phone had been invented.

A co-worker of mine has a friend who works for Blizzard (right here in Irvine), who I've been out to lunch with a couple of times. He hooked me up with a free copy of WOW, so I started playing tonight.

I'm a level 6 gnome warrior with white hair and a thirst for blood.

God, I'm a dork.

I pulled out a guitar the other day for the first time in a long time. Man, I suck! No, seriously, I suck very much big time!
