Some people are amazing planners. Me, not so much. I'm good at the whole conceptual part of planning but I'm awful at the practical making-it-happen part. Which is why I'm a good month or so behind on meeting caterers. But we have three appointments now, so thats underway. And I've narrowed photographers down to three choices, so we need to meet with them. thats next. And I ordered save the date magnets! Yay! And we got our request in to Jimmy's mom's timeshare company for the honeymoon...
Huh. I'm actually kind of on top of this. For me.
In other news, we're going to see Wicked this week! We have fancy box-seats. I'm pretty excited. Jimmy's been working way too much, so it will be fun to have a date night. We went to the UK-Vandy game last weekend and went to the martini bar across the street from where we got engaged. This weekend, however, is a lazy d0-nothing weekend. I'm really enjoying it.
I'm off to make some blueberry muffins and the Sungergos coffee I picked up at Whole Foods! Hope everyone's year has been fabulous so far.
Later Days,
Laura

2008
I'm not feeling particularly bloggy lately for some reason. But I think 2008 deserves a quick retrospective.
It was my first full year of being a real grown-up. My first full year of living completely on my own (in a manner of speaking). I moved to Shelbyville, into the first apartment I've really loved. I got engaged! and became obsessed with, then bored by wedding planning. I started saving for our first house and got my credit rating pretty high. I got approved for a raise, though I wont actually see it for another month or so. I spent more time hanging out with friends, which is fantastic. It helps living close to people. I saw my first UK game in Rupp Arena. I lost 20 pounds. The Columbus Crew won the MLS championship. I voted for my first presidential winner! Actually, I think I voted for my first winner at all, on the federal level. All in all, it was a pretty good year for me. I mean, the economy sucks and we're still at war and a lot of things are pretty uncertain. But I think I'll remember 2008 as a year of small victories.
