This is Capri by Colbie Caillat. Awesome voice on this girl. I would recommend her cd to anyone.

Not much to report. It’s basically a waiting game now for the hotel. 85 days and counting. Could be less than that but I figure it’s better to over-count it.

Obsessions of the moment - People’s Court, Diablo II (The Eastern Sun modification), trying to learn as much as I can about javascript.

Jenn and I were discussing today what kind of parents we would be. We’re both of the opinion that we’re going to be great parents. I know everyone who plans to have kids thinks that, but we’re not just saying it. We’ve talked at great length about parenting. What we want to do and what we shouldn’t do. And we’re always pointing out to ourselves when we see bad parenting in action. For instance, any time I see a parent walking AHEAD of their 4-11 year old, I get a strong desire to have the kid pass their parents a note that says “Do you know how many times I could have been kid napped while you weren’t looking?” Parents that don’t pay close enough to their children piss me the fuck off. Especially these days when there are so many bad things that can happen to them. You don’t have to be paranoid and shelter them, but at least know where the hell they are!

But I digress. We know what kind of parents we’ll be. We won’t be the kind of parents that will say “no” just to assert our authority. That always pissed me off as a kid. We’ll explain things to our kids if we have a reason for saying no. We won’t take discussion as argument. Another thing that used to bug me about my parents. I was a mature kid for my age and sometimes I wanted to discuss with them why I was being told no.. and they always yelled at me like I was arguing.

Heh. We’re also going to be rather young-at-heart parents. Given that as parents we’ll still be playing PS3, Wii, Xbox, computer games.

Well, when (if?) you have kids, I'm guessing you'll do well. ('Cause technically I don't know you, so I can't really judge)

thank god
I wish you were my dad...well, years and years into the future anyway. When you DO become a dad. ;P I understand what you mean. Some people are just...blind, hypocrtical, horrible parents. I really feel so sad for those children. What could happen, what does happen.
Daddy~! Kidding. XD
