This is my first entry, and already I'm feeling a lot of pressure. You're probably wondering what this blog is going to be about and why it should be of any interest to anybody. I'm guessing (though I'm probably mistaken) that this'll be a blog about a) what it's like being married, b) what it's like to leave Los Angeles and move back East, and c) what it's like to move back in with ones parents (with ones wife) while trying to find a decent place to live in the midst of a big Boston real estate bubble.

I'll try to get as much high drama / action sequences in here as seem fit, and I'll throw a lot of jokes in to keep things moving, though in all likelihood this blog will focus primarily on the things my wife (Raegan) and I argue about and at times may even be direct transcriptions of same. Here comes one now:

Me: Honey, you can't do that!
Raegan: Do what?
Me: You can't just come over and peer over my shoulder like that when I'm writing.
Raegan: Why not?
Me: It drives me crazy! Now I have to put it in the blog!

What I'm saying is, I'll do what I can, but I'm not changing my life any just to suit the two friends of mine who'll be reading this, whose names are Chris and Emily and who are also married. I'm not going to go starting any barfights, if that's what you're hoping for. But at least I'll let you know where I'm going and if you like you can meet me there. For instance, tonight Raegan and I will be at River Gods in Cambridge around 10. Look for two short people: one bearded Jew, one Annie Hall.

And now my left wrist is starting to ache and I think I may have contracted Carpal Tunnel. So between the parents, the wife, the brother & sister, and now the Carpal Tunnel, I can already see this is going to be problematic. In fact, this may be my final entry. Check back tomorrow.
