Ever notice how it's the little things in life that amuse us so much? More to the point, ever notice how it's the silly little idiocies in life that amuse us more than anything else? Well, this is not as much ''the little blog that could'' as it is ''the blog that enjoys going up the down escalator in your local mall.'' Will it have anything of real importance? No, probably not. But enjoy the ride never the less!

 


It's darn near the end of 2011, and I notice that I haven't made a new blog post since early August. It's almost apropos, since that's not too far off from the inception of the reason for this particular post. I'll be honest: I've come to dislike blogging as a whole. Not because I don't have things to write about, but simply because I've been more tired this year than in the past, and as a result have found myself incredibly impatient with the Internet. You can only stare at so many LOL- and Nyan-cats before you find them staring back at you.

However, this is definitely worth dusting off the ol' blogger. Assuming you still semi-regularly glance at this little bit of nowhere...and haven't already seen the ever-so-subtle remarks being made over Kevin's Facebook account...Mel and I have an announcement of particular importance! No, she hasn't agreed that my ass is sexy (and subsequently ushered in the end of the world).

But she is pregnant and we're going to have a baby!

And apparently, votes are already being tossed in for their official nickname of being 'Rampage' regardless of gender. ;p

Interestingly enough, this particular announcement (and the official discovery of it, to boot) is being made rather late in the proverbial game. We had attributed a number of the early baby indicators to other factors--mostly stress-based ones considering we spent the last part of summer and most of the autumn fighting an aspiring bedbug infestation in our apartment. While we are in the process of finding out how far along Mel is, we're pretty darned sure it's far along enough to put a due date around her birthday.

So for any friends going to Anime North 2012, you'll actually be seeing the little tyke there. So huzzah to little otaku-in-the-making once again! But on the plus side, at least we're not so scary as to name our kid Inu Yasha. That'd just be ridiculous. I'm opting to name them Sesshomaro myself.


Mel: "WHAT?"

Me: ^^;; "Um...I meant Carrot Glaces?"

Mel: "You do realize any harm I inflict on you now can be legally whitewashed as 'temporary insanity', right?"

Me: o.O;;;
