THE FOG
Oh man, today is a day when having huge windows facing out onto the lake is awesome, because I cannot see the lake, only FOG!!!! My desk is several stories up in the new building, and so I am perched up high watching mist-covered campus. If I was cool I would have a webcam or digital picture or SOMETHING. But you will be forced to just use your imagination.
Life is pretty good and calm at this moment. I’m sure that will change, since it’s Monday, but it’s been a nice weekend of sleeping in late and lounging around with Andy. We’ve got our engagement photo hung above the fireplace flanked by our marriage license and a cross-stitch sampler my new mother-in-law made for us (BEAUTIFUL!!!). Every little thing makes it seem more real and less like I just dreamed the whole thing. Dreams are good, but man the reality is even better.
Thanksgiving week! We keep pretending we’re gonna work on the thank-you notes for the wedding gifts, but we’ve gotten sidetracked with all the photos and frames. Oh well. The plan is to have a Thanksgiving dinner for two and just roast a chicken or something—put all our new appliances to work. I’m also taking care of the squid for Thanksgiving, so even they will have hopefully a nice holiday. They can be thankful for endless shrimp, mating, and no predators. Me? I’ll be thankful for a whole lot of things, because this year is just chock full of things to be happy and thankful for. You get the picture.
Ok, Monday beckons ?
