Sorry for the infrequent posting as of late. The goings on in my life may be best followed on Twitter. I am making a long overdue post capping the past few days.

Friday, I went out to HH with Tommy and then watched Killing Them Softly (the Mrs went to bed early). We go to HH at the Perch Pub where there are 1/2 drafts and we have a nice relationship with the bartenders. Tommy and I are regulars there and the bartenders take care of us -- the bar was pouring Russian River and Firestone Walker beers -- that makes us come in there a bunch.

Killing Them Softly stunk. Highly overrated.

Saturday, we went to birth class at the hospital where the baby is going to be delivered. That was interesting and somewhat informative. Having a baby pop out of my wife is definitely going to be an experience.

Saturday night we watched some shitty NFL games with Tommy. We got growlers of beer from Tired Hands and Tommy brought over chips and salsa from the Italian Market.

Sunday we watched less shitty NFL games. I did some work on the second bedroom to get it prepared for the baby. We also finalized the date of Ali's baby shower ... all of the ladies in the area and DC area should expect to receive invitations in the coming weeks. It is set for February 23.

Saturday night, I went to Ryan Poyser's Mom-Mom's wake. It was up in Bensalem. I saw Tony and Justin Humes (and the Humes family). Tony and I hit the Hulmville Inn after for some beers - the bar is a Mecca for beers in Bucks county but they were pouring some shitty beer that night.

Check out the label on the beer Tony ordered:

I got named to the 2013 PA Rising Star List. This received by 2.5% of attorneys in the state. The Rising Star distinction is for younger attorneys. The nominations are done by peers and it looks really good. It should help get my name out there and help out the firm. I will be listed in the June edition of Philly Mag. Ali was also named a Rising Star this year.

We still don't know how we are going to handle the work situation with her when the baby comes along. We are going to see how flexible her work would be with her. We are planning on 3 day a week day care and part-time hours at this point.

That's it for me. Bowling on Wed! So pumped. Our team won the 1/2 half of the season and guaranteed ourselves a spot in the year end championship.
