what happens when you're not looking.

I just realized that today is November 28, which means that two days ago was November 26, which was when Dave and I passed the six month marker of having been married. wheee! Can't you tell how good we're going to be at this anniversary stuff??


Can you imagine?! Six months have already gone by. We've just barely recovered from the wedding, Dave still has to finish a few thank you notes, and I still haven't done a damn thing about putting the pictures on the web or getting any of the many deserving people copies of wedding pictures . . . except our parents.*


So far? The being married part is pretty great. I warm his slippers by the fire, he fixes me extra-dirty martinis every night. Actually, more like I warm my cold feet on his warm skin at night, and he fixes dinner while I blog, but whatever, close enough.


You know . . . if a bride and groom can survive financing and co-planning their own wedding, I think they have a decent shot at beating the odds. Right, everything I needed to know about marriage I learned from our wedding. Something like that. I could write a dissertation on the subject, probably, but I won't because the wedding is over, we're glad, and marriage is swell.

We would have totally wanted him there anyway, but it was also wonderful to take advantage of his talent. Please please check out his website, buy his stuff, and support him in any way you can. He is tremendous beyond words. These are still the only pictures of the wedding lurking freely on the web. Sorry.
