New Job!!!

A little over 4 months ago I was let go of what I thought was a very stable job. Little did I know that the economy was crumbling down and affecting everyone, including me. Many people are having worse times than I am so I obviously feel very lucky and greatful that I was finally able to find a job and a good one at that. I have gone back to retail. People will say that maybe it wasn't such a bright move to go back to retail but amazingly enough that despite the economic problems our country is going through, I found the one job that I don't think will have any problems. Video games!! People can barely afford to buy gas to get to work and yet people are buying video games, video game systems and video game accessories like someone stocking up before a hurricane. It's in a very busy mall that fortunately is very close to an airport and many hotels so the majority of the traffic that comes in are tourists. South American tourists to be precise. So they want to bring back all the new technological wonders we have to offer that may not be available to them there like the newest blackberry or even a Nintendo Wii.

On another note all is well on the family front. My beautiful and pregnant wife still gets the shaft from her family on occasion and it's horrible to watch it happen and not be able to do anything about it other than comfort her and let her know that I'M always going to be there for her no matter what. It sucks to watch her mother show obvious favoritism towards her oldest from another marriage over her first born to her second and still going marriage. What's worse is that she doesn't even see that she's doing it even when told that she is. I guess ignorance is bliss.

Sorry, went off subject again. My son is doing good. I'm trying to savor these moments before he's born and plan to continue to do so this time around as I didn't do it so well with my first born. I still haven't been able to scan some of the sonogram pictures but I will. Just trying to get settled in my job and used to being on my feet all day again.
