I live in Northern Virginia (NVA or NOVA) near Washington, DC and it’s very difficult to meet other couples to be friends with. Everything moves very fast. Everybody is too busy. Everybody with kids spends all their time on kids things. We have kids and it’s become much tougher to go out, but even at our church it’s not easy to hook up with other couples. I don’t get it.

I want to “be fun”. To me, “having fun” doesn’t mean you go find it and get it from somewhere. I can be fun anytime I choose and I can “be fun” for those around me. I’m not saying I know how to do this because I keep forgetting to be fun (I like the cool little reminder that 43 will send me in a month…).

... to find a prince(ss). Over the last 7 years (since I had my last great job), I’ve changed jobs about 10 times. There were a few that felt good to start, but then there were the things that take a few months to find out. I got to the point where recruiters were saying “you really need to stay with something for a few years, employers don’t like to see job hopping”. But I finally found a good job that pays well. I work with good people and I get more time with my family.
1. Prepare – I got my Masters Degree (in a field I like)
2. Ask yourself this question: “why do something you don’t like for a third or half of your life?
