Personal Updates Thread

I'm doing well. I'm lurching toward semi-retirement working in a world of government and, by extension, politics that has become increasingly uncomfortable and often incomprehensible given my coming-of-age in a much more consensus-driven era. Still following the Braves but not as ardently as I did in the past. I stop in here to catch up on what the true experts have to say.

I hope you have the wherewithal to follow them more ardently this year!!
 
What was your first marriage/divorce like? I asked as someone with a rampant history of divorce down both sides of my immediate and extended families:)

Got together as kids (19) - Grew apart. Mostly split amicably although it was definitely initiated from her side. Fortunately we didn't have children together. At the time thought it was the worst thing that could ever happen. Ended up being the best thing as I now have everything I've ever dreamed of in life.
 
Our family is moving to the Portland Maine area at the end of August after 13 years in North Dakota. Excited for some Fenway Braves games and some Sea Dogs AA games. I accepted a new position in the National Weather Service in the Gray, Maine office.
Portland is a dope city. It's a bit far from me for a regular trip (Boston is almost closer to me) but when I've been I've had a great time. Usually it's only for like one day because of some event. But it's got a good food scene good beer scene. I have enjoyed my time there. Mentioning it makes me want to go to Crispy Gai now. As I adore their thai fried chickenj with crispy shallots.
