Wow. So I’ve been a terrible writer in the past 23947234 months and for that I apologize. I blame Facebook. And the wedding (not really). And life. And since the wedding and honeymoon I’ve felt like I can’t write until I write about those, and I haven’t. SOOOOOO I guess expect those to pop up sometime next week during my amazing ‘break’. That gives me freedom to chat about whatever I want, RIGHT NOW. HA.

Anyway. This weekend was a big birthday celebration for Jeff’s 31st. Made a lemon poppyseed bundt cake (obv. I am very proud of this) on Friday, had his mom and her fiance over for lunch on Saturday, meant to go out to Nami but instead picked up sushi so Jeff could watch his Gophers kick butt during dinner, and then hosted a pretty crazy party on Saturday night. 3 am! Pretty rare for us. But it was a great time. Today we did brunch with one of his buddies and then his pops and his wife came over to eat pizza/watch Vikes/eat cupcakes/hang out. Whew! Pretty fun though – we didn’t try to get anything accomplished really (other than vacuuming immediately after the party, ha).

So, In Conclusion: Happy 31st Birthday Jeff! I hope it was a “fabulous” one, among other things. Personally I’d say it was pretty swell.

I can’t believe Christmas is in 11 days. The past few months have been pretty surreal, and coming down from the wedding, which was 987x more spectacular than I imagined, and the honeymoon, which was just up to the amazingness level I’d expected, has really skewed time and thought. But not in bad ways, just…in ways. This whole year has been quite the shebang from beginning to end. January was pretty horrific, but everything else in my small world has pretty much blown me away. I’m incredibly lucky, as always. You know how the story goes.

Birthdays on Saturdays are the best. Another great thing about 2008.

Anyway. I’m seriously intending to be a better updater, if only because it’s pretty creepy/amazing to be able to read over the past 10 YEARS OF MY LIFE wow WTF. So, more for me than for an audience (my ‘audience’ of Diana, Christie, Michael and Steph. And Mom). I think that might help. I always feel like if I’m gonna take the time to write, it should be worthwhile, but that’s freakin’ lame. I’d like to call this new phase in my writing world “Inspired By Trike.”

All right. Enough! Time to read and hang out, if I can make myself not work. Ha!
