Enough is never enough

I should have put out my "UGA is going to win the SEC this year!" post a few weeks ago when it was still relevant. I guess I'm glad I didn't, now that the odds are lower.

It's still early though. I won't be going to another UGA game until GA/FL at the end of next month. The trip and the tailgate are always more fun than the game - at least for UGA fans - and this year doesn't look much better. Florida appears unstoppable, even though they haven't really played anyone yet (Tennessee doesn't count for much in my book since they hardly showed up for that game). But that's a month away and a lot can happen in between.

Speaking of in between, there's a lot going on for me personally in the next month. For starters, Hilary and I are taking a beach trip with Andy and Abby next week!! WOOOOOO!!! Been planning this one since earlier this year. We originally planned to go with them to Hawaii last year, but getting off of work for me didn't happen...too much going on at that point.

Of course, that hasn't really changed around here, but we're going this time anyway.

Gonna be a great time...no big plans or expectations, just hanging out at the beach, eating a lot of good food, hanging out with good friends and hopefully a whole bunch of sleeping, too. REEEEAALLY looking forward to it.

As of October 1st (roughly), TradeWind Productions will be re-organized as TradeWind Productions, LLC. Why? Liability. Operating as a sole proprietor for these last few years has kept me rather exposed. When you operate as yourself (instead of a corporation, LLC or LLP) then all of you personal assets and business assets are intertwined. The primary problem arising from something like that has to do with litigation. If someone sues me because they tripped over a video cable at an event, damages will be limited to the company. As a sole proprietor, my damages would have been limited to everything Hilary and I own...house, cars, savings....everything. So that's the main reasoning there. Also, I'll be able to organize and manage other areas of the business operations more easily, but that's too much detail for one blog post.

The company website overhaul project will also be completed soon as well. I'll post here when that happens so everyone can go check it out and let me know how awesome it is.

Next on the agenda is Oktoberfest! I think the camping trip to Helen is out for this year, what with members of the group being Full-O-Baby and such. However, that does allow for a couple more options on designated driver. Sorry Abby, that's just how it's going to be. Maybe they'll be serving O'Douls.

After that, I've got the aforementioned trip to Sea Island and the GA/FL game in Jacksonville. This might be the last year for this trip, which is too bad since it has been a nice get-together.

Baby Jolly is still growing. I forget what size it's supposed to be right now...we get another ultrasound one of these days, and I'll post the details here. Just like I posted the last one...oops. Maybe next post.

I need a vacation. Here it comes!
