Okay, not really mania. If anything, we're a bit lackadaisical in planning this fake wedding. For one thing, it's less exciting to plan an indoor, on-the-ground wedding than it is a blimp we… Read More

So I missed my blog's anniversary (again). We've either grown apart so much that I've forgotten all the important things like anniversaries and posting or we've become so comfortable with ea… Read More

I went to the dermatologist to see about getting an irritating mole (it's right where my glasses sit behind my ear) removed. I thought this would be a "hmm, yes, let's remove it, please go t… Read More
