Back in the saddle again...

Fall is a-coming! I can smell it. The mornings are crisp and the evenings sublime. I'm back to blogging for a number of reasons:

1.) We had our baby. I did most of the work, but we are now proud parents of baby boy Joseph Anthony Martinez! He weighed 7lbs. 13oz. and measured 20 inches long. He's a VERY good baby, and I'm actually getting decent sleep (please take a moment to knock on your nearest wooden surface or object). Here is a picture of me and my boy:

2.) I am starting classes in November. I'm hoping that in two short semesters, I will be the proud owner of a piece of paper saying I have a B.A. in English Lit. I'm registering next week, so here's to open classes!

3.) Walking will be back on in the next few days. I feel better after this delivery than I did with either of my other two boys, and anticipate that within the next week I should be able to start logging some more walking distance. I've deviated from my original one-year plan, but who cares? I anticipate that I've lost about 25lbs. since the start of my pregnancy (I don't own a scale because I obsess, so I have to wait for my 6-week doctor's visit).

Anyway, that's my current events info, and I will endeavor to keep this blog rolling so that when the netizens of the world are bored, there's one more self-absorbed blog out there with fresh material.
