Goodbye Workbag...

You have been good to me all these years. You have belonged to me since my first job as an attorney. Sadly, you were victimized by my dog too often. Nonetheless, you were resilient. Unfortunately, this most recent attack has left you completely unusable. You will be missed. I hope the recycling gods are good to you.

Goodbye tote bag... hello backpack!

The Countdown Begins

My favorite hobby these days is wedding planning. This is the most fun I've had since before grad school. I have no idea why wedding planning is so fun. It's not something I've really thought about until April 24, 2010. But it has been pretty all consuming.

We have 369 days to go until we are bound contractually to be together forever. Now and after we die. That is a comforting thought. Only three weeks into our engagement and we've accomplished little and yet so much:

1. Ceremony site (check)
2. Reception venue (check - almost)
3. Wedding coordinator (check - almost)
4. Budget (work in progress)
5. Bridal Party (check)

My least favorite aspect of wedding planning is budgeting.... I hate it. I hate numbers. Especially numbers that have $ preceding it. I think that's Paul's forte. Thanks Paul for our wedding :)
