Happy month-iversary!

Just married!

Yep, folks…Rand and I have been married for a whole month. Woohoo! 😀

We currently have our whole cake top sitting in our freezer. We have a secret plan for it, which I will reveal…probably tomorrow. 😉

Rand refers to the above photo as “freewheelin’ Rand and Erin.” I’ll let you all guess on the reference.

Happy day!

Lazy, rainy Sunday

Rand and I are sitting here watching women’s gymnastics. I’m having a hard time understanding this new scoring system…although I think they just explained it in a way that makes sense. Sort of.  😉

We saw our parents yesterday…they both came to Buffalo to visit, and we went out for lunch. We had a very nice day. My parents brought a CD with wedding photos, and I started working on uploading them to flickr. I still have *lots* more.

We also got a couple of CDs in the mail from Debbie, and I haven’t even begun to look at them yet. 🙂

Last night, Rand and I went to see Pineapple Express. It was funny. Extremely violent, but funny. 😉

Ok, enough for me…G’night!

Promises, promises

I had a pretty busy day yesterday. In the “taking care of business” end of things, I made it to the social security office to file the official “name change” paperwork, and my new card should arrive in 7-10 days.

I also signed the form to change my name at the bank, so they’ll be sending me a new card.

Today, I tackle the DMV. Pray for me. 😉

I also filled out one of the forms to put a wedding announcement in the paper. I decided to skip the Buffalo News, because it was too much of a hassle. (Bridal Portraits, anyone? Yeah, not for me…) I am submitting to two papers in my hometown and the Bee. I think I have to stop in at the Bee, though, because their online form is a little bit too old school…it assumes that if you’re submitting a wedding announcement, you must be 23 years old. For example, it has spaces for high school and college information, but not for graduate school or current employment. And because it’s an online form, there’s no way to add anything. Hm. Anyway.

The living room continues to be a HUGE mess, cluttered up with gifts that need to be put away, and stuff we dumped there when we arrived home from the honeymoon. Sigh. I started the laundry yesterday, but we still have a lot of that to do, too.

OH, and there’s writing thank you notes to do as well. So, my honeymoon pictures will be coming soon…and I intend to start a series of wedding-related posts over at the wedding blog too. I’d like to write down some of my thoughts while they’re still relatively fresh.

Walter is posting reception photos now. It’s so exciting, seeing them pop up! 🙂

Ok, stuff to do. Hope to be back later!

Wedded bliss

Just a quick hi to say that we are having a wonderful time… 🙂

Lots ‘n lots of pics are up on flickr. Do check out our wedding photo group. Anyone can view the photos, but if you’d like to join, just send me a note and I’ll add you.

Ta!

Photos

Yes, life is still pretty busy. The apartment is empty and clean, and now we try to settle in to the new place!

I have uploaded photos for your viewing pleasure, though. (no titles or descriptions yet, sorry!) Click here!

OMG so much to do

Gah.

Where’s the vacation part of this week? Hmmm? Sigh. Here’s what’s on my to-do list:

1. Write TC article due tomorrow (this is pretty much done, but may need some tweaks…)

2. Work on invitations (I’ve done a little bit. the reply cards are gonna be a nightmare, b/c the printer doesn’t seem to want to print them straight)

3. Work on getting a final for-real guest list including all necessary contact info.

4. Grade a bunch of papers (*weep*)

5. Get together w/my little b/c it’s her birthday this week.

6. Plan lessons and gather materials for next week.

7. Go to two yoga classes, b/c I missed last week.

8. Get a mani/pedi.

9. Wash springy-summery clothes I took out of storage.

10. Play with iPod.

11. Walk every day.

I’ve about given up hope of ever catching up on the blog posts I meant to write…but I have uploaded photos!

That’s all for now. Happy Monday!
