Promises, promises

Well, as many of you know, I talk a good game, but sometimes the follow through is a little lacking. This has been apparently the route I've taken towards this blog. It appears to be something that I really latched onto initially, and then, either due to lack of ideas, or more likely, sheer laziness, I've let it fall to the wayside. I will endeavor to do better, but I highly doubt that I will return to the glory days of a post a day. Well, enough of apologies, let's get down to the reason I started this blog in the first place. To let fly my ego and to keep all of you informed of the little bits of trivia that fill my life.

What to say about my world? Well, I'm now working the day shift at work as opposed to the graveyard shift that I'm normally at. It's very nice to be able to come home and spend time with my wife every night and it's great to be able to sleep at night. I'm still trying to get used to waking up though. I do miss the peace that working at night brings, and that any phone call I get actually means that something bad is happening. I think that if I get one more stupid question about police procedure or parking issue, I'm going to lose it. I really feel like more of a glorified receptionist than a police dispatcher on this day shift. But working days makes Sy happy, and I certainly can put up with a little misery to keep the homestead a happy place. Because, isn't that what marriage is about? Compromise and love.

As I've said before, and I'm sure I'll say again, my marriage is the most important thing in my life. I am more than willing to put everything else to the side to make my marriage a happy and long lasting one. Call me old fashioned, but I thought that marriage was a forever thing and any problems that arise should be a chance to make it stronger, not a reason to bail on it. Again, just my thoughts, and to be honest, my marriage seems to be going pretty smoothly these days, for which I am thankful.

As for the whole working out thing, I fear that I will never get into shape. I say how I want to get into shape, but then, like most Americans, I don't take the necessary steps to make it happen. I'll keep trying though, and all of you wish me luck on this exercise thing.
