Where to start

Where to start?

I am one of those guys who is as comfortable sitting at home with his son as he is out in the middle of nowhere with this son. Actually I prefer both places. Not into the bar scene per se, though I do love a good beer. Right now it's a PranQster by the North Coast Brewing Company.

For the past twelve years I acted as both mother and father to a son who is now a tweener. Side note: When did he get so big?! As his mother battled multiple sclerosis. I placed the formation of, and fostering of the relationship they had at the forefront of everything.

I am attempting to get back into the social scene. First foray was a miserable failure for reasons which still make no sense whatsoever, but such is life. her loss, not mine. Though I think in the end I may lose a friend out of it. We'll see.

Right now I am in a blues/rock type of mood when it comes to music. Right now it is : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOkWCJilkwo

It is a great time of year as the start of college football signals the arrival of Fall, by far my favorite season. I love the foliage and the crispness of the morning air. It also gets us closer to the holidays which is a great time to be a parent.

I will try to do this weekly but no promises. Leave a comment or what not.

Introduction

Guess as this is the first post, I should probably be considerate and explain who I am. No I am not a doctor. Just some random single father residing in Maryland. Though never married, I made sure my child and the mother had a relationship, as she had a debilitating medical that she recently succumbed to: no I don't want pity!
The purpose of this blog is many fold. I'll talk about the ins and outs of parenting, of starting the social aspects anew. Other topics will be related to current events, history, politics, music, books, etc

A caveat: the views expressed here are solely mine, so don't hate!
