So, I’m sitting at home and bored out of my mind on a Saturday…can you believe it? So, I decided to fool around with Photoshop CS3 a bit and made some pics of what my son will look like is 20 years and what my dog things he looks like…enjoy!

Aiden – 2 Months Old
It’d been a while, so I decided it was about time to take some video of little Aiden. He’ll be two months old this coming Tuesday (Feb. 9th). It seems like he was only born yesterday. He’s a handful, but moments like this are so special.Enjoy.

So, uh…I’m a DAD!!!
Hmm…where to begin.
First of all, let me officially make the announcement that our son was born this past Tuesday, December 09, 2008. He was born at 12:09pm on 12/09/08. Crazy, I know.
So, my wife and I went into the hospital on Sunday night (December 07) because they were going to do cervadil induction due to my wife’s blood pressure being high. We got there, they gave her the cervadil, and the next morning they started her on Pitocin, a drug that causes her to have contractions. Long story short, she stayed in labor for 30 hours. She kept making just enough progress that the doctor kept holding off on doing a c-section. During this labor, she was stuck in the arm about six times trying to get a vein for an IV and had to have two epidurals done because they first one didn’t take. Basically, she was put through the ringer. The doctor finally decided to perform a c-section the morning Aiden was born.
My son’s name is Aiden Emery Thorn Hamilton. And he is…wonderful. He is everything I could ever want and so much more. It just boggles my mind to realize that we created this child. When I saw the doctors pull him out of my wife, I realized right then that life was going to be different from now on…forever. And I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Anyways, enough typing…I’m sure you want to see some pictures. Enjoy!

Just FYI…videos are coming SOON!!! 
So, this comic is actually a mixture of two things. The joke is seriously a joke I thought up today and told my wife whilst we were shopping…and, like the poor sap in the panel with me, she shot it down. I may have been tempted to smack her as though she were my beyotch, but I refrained because, not only do I love her, but she has the rare ability of making my life miserable if she so chooses to do so. I don’t consider myself whipped…no. I’m more of what I would call…cautious. The wrath of a woman is something that is just horrible to feel and, honestly, not worth the trouble, usually.
Anyways, this comic is also a sign of how I don’t take criticism well. So, next time I tell you a joke, just go ahead and laugh it up…not so much for me, but for your poor bicuspids and molars. Consider their feelings. Do you really think they would prefer to be seperated from your soft, pretty gums? No, I don’t think they do.

So, in other news…I’m really, really tired. We spent the entire day doing errands and such. In fact, I haven’t gamed at all, today. Yikes, right? Not cool at all. I’ve gone back and been playing through “Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth.” It’s basically a gameplay version of H.P. Lovecraft’s “The Shadow Over Innsmouth,” with a few extra embellishments to make things more exciting. It’s a fun, difficult game…the characters all look quite a bit alike, but still…who doesn’t enjoy a game where the horror and evil of the creatures is enough to drive your character to insanity and, possibly, suicide?
If you’re a fan of H.P. Lovecraft, then I definitely recommend the game. You’ll find yourself enjoying being thrust into the fantastical world of his horror stories. They are weird and while not altogether horrifying, they do get under your skin. Plus, having fishmen chasing you is always terrifying.
Anyways, I’m off to bed for now. Will try to post another tomorrow…
So…basically, this is the price of boredom, a love of punk rawk music, and me trying to “stretch” my artistic abilities. I’m sad to say I’ve come to one unfortunate conclusion about my art…….I can’t draw women. And, I mean, I’ve spent so much time observing them that you’d think that it’d be easy. But it’s not. I mean…you’ve got the curves and the hair and the curves and the eyes and the curves and the lips…did I mention the curves? 
Although difficult to draw, they are one of the best parts of women if I do say so myself.

In other news, today we went to our friend Andrea’s house to hang out for a little while. She’s really Kristen’s friend and then she became my friend…yadda yadda yadda…long story short, I spent some time with her little girls. They’re absolutely adorable, hilarious, and they’re teaching me how fun and difficult parenting will be. I got to hold her youngest (who is too young to talk and walk but old enough to crawl). It’s the first time I’d really ever held a baby before. I hadn’t realized that until here lately. But it was a good experience, nontheless.
As a reward for my time spent with her, she decided to go poo in her diaper and her mother forced me to watch to prepare me for the inevitable. Needless to say, it was horrifying. I can handle the poo being there…but the smell was quite rank. Methinks that we will definitely be purchasing some air fresheners when the little guy gets here in December.
Speaking of Aiden, we got our first real “baby shower” gift, today. My Uncle David & Aunt Kay sent us a package with a $75 gift card for Wal-Mart and a cute little outfit and some socks for Aiden. So, if you guys happen upon this, THANKS SO MUCH! It is nice to finally be receiving some things and to know that people out there care.

Well, that’s that for tonight, I suppose. Happy Fall Break to everyone out there experiencing some of that.
