			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looks like my son <em>Longreen</em> is going to take his girlfriend Naral to a cosmetology school (in the US) tonight (long trip! wonder whether <em>Max</em> will &#8216;drive&#8217; them over) to get a beauty service at a local salon, where the school students get their apprentice by offering cheap services. I liked the idea as my son was exposing it, and I&#8217;m glad they&#8217;re going to give it a try. Smart kids I got!</p>
<p>As for my job, I fear it&#8217;s going to keep me busy all day, today and tomorrow. My children helped me &#8211; Primus bless &#8216;em! &#8211; a lot, but of course, the workload on Cybertron is not going to be light. I&#8217;m still excited about it anyway, and I hope to do a good job. My father trusts me with it, and I won&#8217;t disappoint him.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I would usually believe that when human coins decline due to <em>recession</em>, price of gold would too; but I was wrong it seems. It&#8217;s still safe to <a href="http://www.usgoldbureau.com/">buy gold bullion</a>, because gold exists in a physical form, which is <strong>stable</strong> and not subject to variations like Dollar or Euro values. It would be interesting to <em>invest</em> in gold bullion when times get tough on the financial side; I need to discuss this with my father as soon as possible. Gold stability in Earthen economy can be the key to improve our inter-planetary transactions.</p>
<p>As you can see, my job in assisting my father on the <u>inter-planetary economy, relationships and dynamics</u> is more than just sitting at a table reading papers or correcting them before submission. I&#8217;m proud to have been chosen for this role, and I&#8217;m honoured of serving my homeland together with the Legend that is my father.</p>
<p>I think I should write more about the charms of my job on this blog from now on. <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/grin.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think my wife and I have done well by requesting a $300 <a href="http://www.fastcashonline.com">fast cash</a> loan from an online company; it&#8217;s not a big amount, so we can return it in all calm with time, but at least it&#8217;s <em>some help</em> to our children, as little as they can accept, without getting in the middle of their personal independent plans. <strong>I&#8217;m proud of Buzz and Longreen wanting to be autonomous financially and personally</strong>, but I also want them to remember that their parents are always there for them when they need, and that age and status do not matter: parents are still parents, family is still family. <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/grin.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> It&#8217;s important to understand that family can always be trusted, no matter the issue or the problem to solve. <u>Luana and I are deeply in love with ALL of our children, and we never think of them as a burden</u>; in fact, we keep adopting and adopting, no matter the financial issues sometimes, and no matter MY faults at work (which will be fixed next week anyway!). <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  You can count on mom and dad, kids. <em>Always and Forever</em>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Poor children of mine, I&#8217;m so sorry I didn&#8217;t get to grant them a good <em>cash income</em> yet&#8230; Because of my faults, my sons <strong>Buzz Lightyear</strong> and <strong>Longreen</strong> are scared about asking me and my wife for money to pay their textbooks and wedding planning items. I could not feel any worse than this&#8230; feeling so useless in front of my children&#8217;s needs&#8230; My wife and I are considering a <a href="http://www.pacificadvance.com">cash advance</a> request to try to help them out with these expenses, without seeing them being forced to work to sustain their studies and wedding plan. I know Longreen has a part time job, but he does not earn enough to keep up with everything; and Buzz&#8230; he&#8217;s got no job at all. My father will always be there to help us financially, but <u>this situation is mostly my fault</u> and I&#8217;m the one who needs to correct it. <em>Wondering why?</em> Because my wage has not been upgraded yet under my request, because I wanted to be careful with sorting out things at work, <strong>careful not to make others think of favouritism just because I&#8217;m son to a legend</strong>&#8230; THAT is my fault. And my children are paying for it. I need to fix it now, ASAP.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been on the edge of giving up my website once more. How <em>foolish</em> of me, don&#8217;t you agree? <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/grin.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> Just because my life is busier that ever, doesn&#8217;t mean that I must give up on things I love. I&#8217;m glad I realized it just in time.</p>
<p>So, the past few weeks in short: <strong>my wife and I have adopted new children</strong>, and more of them are on their way home. One of these children is the little girl I told Luana about, <strong>Alysha</strong>, and <u>I&#8217;m happy that my wife accepted her into her heart too</u>; I&#8217;ve loved this child for months already. <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/grin.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> My <strong>job is paying me more money</strong> at last, so I can better maintain my big family, still with the help of my father and my older children. We wouldn&#8217;t be here without the help from each other as a family. I&#8217;m proud of them! I&#8217;ve taken my car to repair too, and worked on the garage&#8217;s ceiling and walls. The kitchen is now alright, but I need to look out for more chairs to add.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m pretty tired tonight, so I&#8217;m not going to add more to this entry. I&#8217;ll make sure to update soon before the week ends, though, so that I won&#8217;t get the temptation of giving up again. Thanks for reading!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’m <em>truly sorry</em> for not having updated in such a long time. I can assure you that dealing with such a a big family is not easy at all, plus <u>I resumed my job as a technician</u>, and that keeps me busy as well. Anyway, I apologize for having neglected this website (and you!) for so long time.</p>
<p>My family has been undergoing a few changes during these past few months: my newly adopted sons <strong>Jazz and Ratchet</strong> have chosen to be <em>back together</em>, so we had to “dismantle” the adoption of Jazz to let him marry Ratch. Nothing really changed in our hearts, though, you know… <strong>Jazz is still a son to me and Luana</strong>, we love him dearly. Plus, he’s been really kind-hearted and generous to let Ratch stay the official son. That ‘Bot is a real <em>angel</em>. I hope I’ll soon be able to use a day off to go see him and my grandchildren too. I really miss them.</p>
<p>As for wifey and I, we’ve made a vow for this <strong>Lent</strong> not to kiss and make love until Easter. She is a fervent Catholic, and I’ve always respected her, so I agreed to do this  <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/grin.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> Sex’s not the only thing in life after all, isn’t it? ^^ What I realize is that, since I came back to life, <strong>our relationship has been getting stronger and stronger</strong>, and we find our souls much more… <em>synchronized</em> than before. Probably that’s what maturity carries along :)  When we got together the first time, I was 22 and she was only 13… Primus, that was nearly <strong>11 years ago</strong>! So much time has passed.</p>
<p>I hope our love and commitment to our family will last for many <em>many</em> years to come.</p>
<p><strong>P.S.</strong> Today’s my birthday, and it seems like the kids are planning to set up a party for their daddy ^^ Luana’s letting them no matter the Lent, and she’s helping out. I’ll stay quiet and pretend I don’t know anything about the surprise :P  *<em>sshh</em>*</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First of all, I hope you shall accept my apology for not having blogged in so long time as I hoped, but there was a lot of happening in the family. A lot of birthdays, adoptions, and little Dartride’s birth. Yes, my wife and I adopted another two loney Cybertronian Transformers, two Autobots who were my father&#8217;s ex-teammates: <a href="http://hide.retromuse.com">Ironhide</a> and <a href="http://cuddlybot.info">Red Alert</a>. They&#8217;ve gotten used to living with our family by now, and I&#8217;m glad we welcomed another two beings in our parental hearts <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/grin.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> Then, my wife and I had another little bless on <u>December 4th</u>: our son <strong>Dartride&#8217;s birth</strong>. He was born as a preemie, at 33 weeks of conception, but he&#8217;s healthy and Rhinox assured me that we&#8217;ll be able to take him home next Tuesday. ^^ Anyway, you can read more about my son&#8217;s birth story on my wife&#8217;s blog <a href="http://bellachino.net/2008/12/dartrides-birth-story/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>The good thing, with the family becoming bigger, is that I&#8217;ve been promised that I would <strong>get my old job as a technician back</strong> by end of January 2009. I hope this is going to solve a few financial problems we currently have.</p>
<p>I will update again soon <img src='http://retromuse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/grin.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> For real, this time.</p>
