I wrote this post on career women a little over a week ago and got some interesting responses. Matt Walsh very thoughtfully responds to a blog post titled I Look Down On Young Women With Husbands And Kids And I’m Not Sorry that characterizes the attitude about which I wrote. Feminism is going to have to confront and defeat that kind of thinking if it is ever wants to be taken seriously, let alone capture the pro-life, high moral ground held by the early suffragists in America.

Day 887 of 1000
I am at the last of what has turned into over a year of travel, two weeks at a time out to Arizona. I help doing some kinds of programming I do not normally do in the spirit of getting our first product out the door. My real job entails development of algorithms to analyze images produced by our first product. The reality is that I have very much enjoyed the robotic control programming I have done for the last year. If it were not for the insane hours and all the travel, it is one of those programming things one might do as a hobby.
All this time on airplanes and in hotel rooms has given me time to reflect. Lorena and I have not yet decided where we want to land if and when we can sell our house in Raleigh. All the information about our options is not yet in–we know neither where the kids will be nor what makes sense in terms of my work. The only thing we know for sure is that we want to head West. The most viable options are the Willamette Valley in Oregon or Prescott, Arizona, or Phoenix, Arizona.
We have good friends in all those places, but Oregon would not really be within driving distance to the kids unless one or both of them go to University of Washington which is fairly unlikely at this point even though both the kids have applied there. At this point, we are leaning toward Prescott, but that changes on a minute to minute basis. We do know that we need to get the house on the market pretty soon if we plan to sell it this spring or summer. Lorena has started to prepare the house and I plan to start looking for an agent during my next trip home.
