PoorBaby

[McCarter]

Its been kinda quiet in the playhouse lately.  Not much to talk about.  My job has been keeping me from spending a whole lotta time on the net.  But you havent missed too much.  I had a crappy year tournament fishing.  I struggled with boat problems all year long.  I didnt have the money to step up to the big leagues(BFL), again!  Which it really wouldnt have mattered anyway cuz my boat was very iffy. 

I am a married man now.  Which is awesome.  My wife and I are in the process of buying a house right now.  When we do, there is going to be a party.  And your all invited.  Bring your poker shoes and beer drinkin socks.  And some gum.  I like gum.  So the good things in my personal life really outweighed the bad fishing season. 

And just when i thought things couldnt get any better, they did!  PoorWife is pregnant with our first.  PoorBoy and PoorWife are gonna have a PoorBaby.  I am so excited i could puke, and almost did when she told me.  Another cool things is that PoorBaby is due 2 days before my birthday.  Hopefully she can hold out a couple extra days and we can have the same birthday.  Think of the money we would save on cake.

Now, i know what you are all thinkin.  But relax.  I figure it will be at least 5 years before he or she is competing in local tournaments.  So you guys still have some time to shine before PoorBaby lights up the local scene.

So, Congratulations to me and my poor wife.  I mean PoorWife.

Congrats, I was in the same predicament your in now a couple years ago.  It will work out.  Stay strong.  Don't look forward to next season too early.  You will set yourself up for a serious winter depression, bad news.

Oh and about the gum.  If you quit, I wanna shake your hand.  I have been chewing for 10 years now.  Need to quit real bad.  I'm about close to a tin a  day.  Chewing Grizzly nowadays, skoal is too expensive.  AHHHH, those were the days when you could get a good tin of chaw like Skoal or Kodiak for under 3 bucks.  Oh well, at least gas is going back down.

Congrats Poorboy enjoy the youngin's!

Just trying to keep it real...I don't know of too many babys born with goatees...unless you consider circus folk...do you have any bearded ladies in your family?

Family is more important than fishing.

Congratulations PB!  Glad you could join the club!  My daughter is 21 months now and I still can't figure out how to find time to go fishing.  I'm sure these other guys will let us know how good the fishing is though.
