Filling In

Ok, ok, ok, I know that I've been lacking in the blogging area, but I've been up to important things. Most importantly trying to get Matt B. to start blogging again. So if you are friends with him get on his case because his blogging is dearly missed. Send him death threats or something, Kaley has already threatened the abduction of his first born.

I also haven't been picking up my end of the slack because I have been training for Officer Candidate School which is a mere 3 1/2 weeks away!! I will admit, the thought makes me a little sick to the stomach because although being a Naval Officer is something I've wanted to do since the day I came out of the womb, the thought of a Marine Drill Instructor in my face, nonstop running, pushup, situps, bear crawls, anything that seems like it may want to make you puke, makes me really really really nervous. So I think about 2 or 3 weeks ago I had a reality check and decided that I wasn't in the best shape to go and if I kept up the pace I was at my life would be miserable for 3 months. So I have been running lots every other day and I joined a gym where I have been going in between my running days. I actually just go back from a 3 mile run.

The summer has been pretty laid back for me. I've been waiting table occasionally and hanging out with my awesome wife. She is back at school which is sad because we can't hang out whenever we want anymore and now she has to deal with little kids that either fart, puke, or just drive her crazy sometimes. And since she's been gone I've found myself having to do a lot of things that she did, like making the bed and picking up around the house. I really appreciate the things she does, because let me tell you, it gets kind of mundane and sometime you just don't want to do it. Like right now, it's about 1:30 in the afternoon and I don't think that the bed is made yet. But it will be when Kaley gets home.

Other than working out, waiting tables, and hanging out with my sweet wife, I've golfed a bit, hung out with some of my favorite friends, and leveled up a couple times in Halo. All in all its been the most relaxing summer I've had in a while but in 3 weeks I'm going to wish it was summer all over again. That's all I've got for ya.

Yours Truly,

Nick and Kaley
