Two Stories
The honeymoon: sun, sleep, sunsets, staph, snorkeling, sushi, sexy-sexy. There you go. But two things that might actually interest you: We spent part of the honeymoon on a rather remote part of an island. There was only one tiny market that we’d drive to for food and beer. We walked in one time alongside a…

processing the new year
The morning after the wedding, we woke up and listened to this song in bed and thought about how happy we were and how perfectly the wedding went and how lucky we were to have these amazing friends and family who braved the rain and snow and winds and this strange waterfall that happens on…

Wedding Week Update (final)
Still raining. I don’t care. Everybody is getting here safely. It’s time for me to wrap this blog up for 2004, and take a nice vacation from computers. Thanks to everybody who has been here for your support, your activism, and your wonderful personalities. I’ll see you when I’m not so covered in single.

Wedding Week Update #1
I burned my arm making dinner last night. Just a small burn, one I’ll be able to cover up with makeup, but I knew it was going to happen. I’ve smacked my hands into just about everything over the past couple of days, and now two of my knuckles are skinned, including my left ringfinger.…

Do you take this dork to be your lawfully wedded…
When Tara does recreate her recent fight with Glark while delivering our ceremony, she can have confidence in the fact that my last argument with stee involved him eventually shouting, “I don’t understand the oven! I don’t know how to cook!” and then him grinning from ear to ear at how stupid that all sounds,…

They Don’t Even Have a License, Leeza. (Now We Do)

i hurt my feet for him
This is the cell phone conversation I overheard this afternoon: “Yes, well, if you want four bridesmaids and then yourself, it’s one-fifty for each bridesmaid, and then for you it’ll be about four hundred, unless you want an up-do, and then it’ll be closer to five or five-fifty, depending on what you want. Now because…

Andi and Hamish’s Wedding (apology)
In college Amy was a double major in HELL and CRAZY. This meant she never slept and was always on top of things. She is now about to be a doctor. Her husband, Kevin, is about to be a lawyer. And together they will own Texas in about seven years.

obligatory wedding stories (random)
The cost of alterations (a simple hem) is almost half the cost of the dress itself. I went in a few weeks ago and put on the dress, standing in front of their large mirrors. I had put the dress on twice since I’d gotten it home over the summer. No. Wait. Three times. The…

W is for Waiting and Writing… and Wedding… and Work… and Wow.
So here’s what it’s like, these days, to be me. It’s what it’s like to live this life, this place where each day is as unpredictable as the next. This morning we planned our honeymoon around Sundance, because stee and Frank are finalists for the filmmaker’s lab. They won’t know until December 17th if they…
