What it was like working for [financial advising company]

By • Aug 4th, 2007 • Category: Uncategorized

As some of you already know, shortly before Laura and I got married I was recruited by a financial advising company in Emporia and went through licensing to become a certified financial planner. I no longer work for the company, but continue to be asked on a regular basis what the company was like. Also […]

If you have been around Laura and I this summer then you already know that I’ve been super busy with work and other things (I’ve been working about 50 hours a week for the past few months). Don’t worry though because I have not forgotten about the site. Over the past few days I have […]



Sound Intelligent: 5 Simple Steps

By • Jun 17th, 2007 • Category: Uncategorized

A while back I found an article by Patricia Fripp called Sound intelligent, powerful, polished, articulate, and confident. I have followed Patricia’s advice for the past several months, and to my surprise, not only do people listen to what I have to say, they get the impression that I am intelligent and know what I […]



Come See Us

Not a whole lot has been going on since my last exciting entry. I’ve been busy with work; Laura still has her dumb kitten; Laura’s friend Christen moved in with us for the summer; and we have started to look at houses. That’s about it. In slightly more exciting news, I have been compiling a […]

I finally got a 316 phone number, thanks to GrandCentral. If you’re tired of me not being local (for Wichita) then let me know and I’ll give you the number.



Summer Already?

By • Apr 21st, 2007 • Category: Uncategorized

I’m starting to enjoy this whole global warming thing, as long as it stays under 80° or so. It’s nearly May so I figured I might as well post something. The wife and I are up to the same things we were last month, and I’m slowly looking for a job that pays better so […]



Still Here

By • Mar 17th, 2007 • Category: Uncategorized

Just in case anyone was wondering, Laura and I are still alive and are doing well. I’ve been busy with work and school and haven’t come across anything interesting to talk about here. Yesterday we made our first trip back to Overland Park since moving and stopped off in Emporia to visit people. We finally […]



Newer Job!

By • Feb 13th, 2007 • Category: Uncategorized

Laura and I have been happy the past few days because I finally found a job that doesn’t involve collecting money from deadbeats and doesn’t require me to work 12 hour shifts. I feel bad though because the new job needed me to start almost immediately so I only gave a week’s notice to Aaron’s, […]



New Job

We’ve been in Wichita for about a week and a half and neither of us have said much of what’s going on. As most of you know, my last day working at the turnpike was the day before our move and I wasn’t able to get anything lined up here before leaving Emporia. Well, yesterday […]

Happy New Year! Laura and I have been married for 100 wondrous days and I don’t believe I could ever be happier. Here is a picture of us from when we first met nearly four years ago.
