Today is the day. Most of you already know, but today I get to write about it.

I’m gonna be a daddy. My wife of five years is pregnant and we couldn’t be happier. Our little Peanut (as we’re calling him¹) is 12 weeks old already and due late July.

Here’s his latest piccy

Little Peanut

I don’t know what it’s gonna be like being a dad, or if I’ll be any good. But when I imagine holding my little child for the first time, I don’t care - I just want it to come right now. I’m so excited².

This is it. I’m online. I have a web presence. Yay.
It’s two days after Christmas. I’ve wanted to get online for a while, being an IT guy but I’ve kept not doing it. I suppose I’ve thought I’m not interesting enough, and I may not be, but now I don’t care anymore. So I’m here now. So I’ve spent about 5 hours getting my website setup, installing and uninstalling different options (as given to me by my provider).

I’ve settled on a ‘blog’ which is totally trendy… It seems the simplest way to quickly write things as I go, without worrying about html and such. I can use html, and I could possibly try to figure out my own php based system, but sheesh - I just got my own website, I don’t want to screw around CREATING it now… that would take ages.

I’ve installed a Firefox extension called ‘Performancing’ which I’m sure is not as amazingly cool for seasoned bloggers as it is for me.

That’s it… that’s my first entry. I hope it didn’t suck so bad. Have a nice day.
