Book Description
The adventures that take place in the year 2015 A.D. or for the scientifically inclined 2015 C.E.
My goals, set at the ending days of 2014, are as follows:
(1) I must pass the bar exam. On the chance that I do not pass in February; I will dedicate my entire existence to passing in July. After that attempt, I will attempt no longer.
(2) I must resolve this three year wedding photography issue. If we cannot receive the product we paid for, then a civil litigation may be necessary. We will receive our product, our payments, or our photographs… and if the civil remedies are too limited, I may file criminal charges.
(3) I must find employment. If I do not pass the Bar Exam, I must find employment in any field that provides a living wage; if I do pass the bar exam, I must find employment in my field.
(4) I must resolve the hanging issues of my marriage. Not only does this include working towards our long delayed Honeymoon… but this includes hard decisions, as well. Like… can I accept a marriage with no intimacy? Can I convince my wife of the importance of physical touch? Am I willing to risk another 3 years between sexual encounters? It isn’t fair to either of us for these questions to remain unresolved.
