I really have an amazing wife.  Today we ran the St. George Marathon.  She started at 6:40 in her racing wheelchair and I started somewhere around 6:50 am.  I finished the race, but this isn’t about me, it’s about Emily.  She set a new course record for this marathon in the wheelchair division and qualified for the Boston marathon.  To qualify for Boston she had to finish in 2 hours and 25 minutes, she smoked that time by coming in at 1 hour and 57 minutes.  Do realize how fast that is?  A marathon is 26.2 miles; she kept an overall pace of 4 minutes and 28 seconds a mile!  I’ll say it for you, “holy crap!”

So, like I said, I have an amazing wife.  Pictures will come soon and there’s more to tell, but feel free to email Emily and tell her how great she is.  Her emails is emcqueen at gmail dot com.

Boys are crazy.  It’s a constant stream of noise and hustling.  The truth is, the poor things are probably bored, but I can’t keep up with them or keep them entertained.  So, sometimes I resort to just letting them go crazy.  And, this is what it usually looks like:

There really isn’t anything as stressful as changing blog platforms.  I thought I wouldn’t have a problem taking my last blog (built on BlogEngine.Net) and pulling the contents into this new WordPress blog, because there seemed to be enough information about using BlogML to make the switch.  But, it didn’t work.  So, I’m left with a completely clean slate.

So, I’ve decided to embrace this clean slate with a new clean theme.  (I love this design!)

If there is a post that you’re looking for and haven’t found yet, let me know.  I can probably resurrect individual posts from a backup I made of the site, but doing a complete transfer of all the old site’s content seems like a long and painful process.

So, with this clean slate, is there anything else you’d like changed in this blog?  More video?  More pictures?  More dramatic prose?  I know there’s only like three people that have ever ‘regularly’ comment (you know who you are Jethro, Gail, and Tom), so I don’t expect a lot of direction, but every little thing helps.
