Welcome to my little place on the web, lets get to know each other.

this is my second attempt at blogging, so lets see how this goes. i am 39 years old(yikes) and I have two wonderful children, both boys aged 7 and 9. I remember being that age, the world so full of possibilities. Not that I don't think the possibilities are still there, they are just different. I am at a point in my life where I feel like I am trying to find out where I fit in this universe, this immense, incomprehensible piece of space that we are only barely beginning to understand. But I like the idea of future discoveries, such as extraterrestrial life or intelligent life elsewhere in the universe. 2013 should be fun because that is when the James Webb space telescope should launch, giving us a better view into the past of our very own existence-exciting! So anyway, this blog should be about me and the family, space, music, some personal venting and whatever I find interesting enough to share with anyone who happens to read this little stop on the Internet highway. My name is Dan and that is the plan.
