About Me
Lets see...I'm not that creative, so I'll just go over the basics:

I'm 33 (yeah, I'm officially old...now get off my lawn!)
I currently work for a big insurance company, but that will change in 2 years after I get my Masters and become a professional bean counter (3x the salary, b1tches!)

As for gaming...my parents bought me an NES in 1986 and they have regretted that purchase to this day. I've been through a game boy, game gear, SNES, N64, Xbox, PS1, PS2, and currently enjoying the 360, Wii, and most recently the PS3 (wife's still pissed about that last one).

I was an editor of a now defunct gaming site, but now a Dtoid Army member.

I'm Gonna Be a DAD!!!
SgtBilbo | 6:43 AM on 07.09.2008 42 comments


Just found out about a week ago that my wife is pregnant!!!

We've been trying for over a year, so this is a great, great thing. Its definitely giving motivation to finishing the home theater, since the equipment for that beast is currently sitting on the dresser in my spare bedroom (which will become the nursery very soon).

Speaking of the home theater project, the electrical is nearly complete and drywall could start as early as this weekend. I'll post pics when I get home from work today (gee, I wonder where I am right now...)

"Hope you don't like money!"

That made me chuckle. I guess thats the only way for me to swallow that $650 monthly daycare payment.

I hate you. You get to "try" all year and now you get to have a little bundle of joy at the end of it all? Some people get all the luck. =P

Congrats. Also, I work at a grocery store and those little like 1lb containers of powdered formula: $20 a pop. Babies aren't cheap. You're a braver (and apparently more financially secure) man than I.

I'll keep the Dtoid middle name under advisement. I think I might get a screenprinted one-sie that has Mr. Destructoid on the front, right under the Level 1 Human label that Nintendoll has provided. :)
