Well, I've been up to a lot over the last year. I got a new job. Same pay, same benefits; better hours, management and work. Wife and I are still having a blast being married. She came to D-Day for the first time with me this year. We got her all-new paintball equipment for it, including a custom mask!
We got her an Empire Mini as her paintball gun. Had a great time and another Allied Victory! I also finally converted her over to the 1911 platform, sort of.
Also got her a new car.
It's a ton of fun. Potentially too much fun.
It's been an up and down year. I got the new job, then my Jeep broke and took $1200 to fix. Wife got a fantastic job that's going to work great for us. I got a kidney stone. Had my wisdom teeth out Friday and I'm still recovering from that. But on the upshot we bought a house last month, so we're not throwing money away at rent anymore. It's a pretty awesome house, with everything we wanted plus some. Classy, built in 1931.
It does have a detached garage with a separate shop area. I don't have a whole lot of tools at all right now, but my parents are clearing out their garage and are going to give me a lot of their old stuff. Old, but quality. Probably won't be too many potato guns in my future still, but I'll be able to do some other fun stuff.
So how have you guys been?
keep living the American dream! Of course you could have bought the good lady wife a proper American car, but otherwise, great stuff 
screw the metropolis, that's no way to live.
