SO, I am back from the East Coast. I had a good trip, and I got to see family and friends who I don't see often enough. I got to meet my 3-year old cousin who everyone else in the family had already met. And I got to meet Stacy's 3-month old daughter, Raime.

I love kids! *grin* I had such a great time, particularly with Stacy and Raime. I've actually come to realize something from the trip...I want to be a father. Really, truly, deeply, want to be a father. And I think I'd be pretty good at it.

Oh, and for those who might be curious, I had a decent amount of alcohol last night while hanging out with my cousin Emily and her boyfriend. Whee! But - I didn't get drunk.

Well, that's it. I'm going to eat some dinner, watch the Lakers, and go to bed.
