Seriously, my life is pretty dang good right now. I have a wonderful fianceé that I’m wildly in love with, and in 24 days, we’re tying the knot. I’m very excited about this. I’m excited about the new family I’m going to be a part of, excited that Kate will be part of my family, [...]

Hell yeah, what a day. What a weekend, really. Been rocking the bike stuff hard. Friday night started with Minnecycle 2010. Showed up and had an awesome time. Hung out with Paul and Vincent, met Curt Goodrich and had a good chat with him after a bit of a go-’round on a mailing list. Took [...]

Item number 102 for the “101 Things in 1001 Days” project: stop taking shit too far. Just because a joke is getting laughs doesn’t mean it needs more laughs at the cost of someone’s feelings. I’ll let you chew on that one without being specific. The important part of this post is Kate. Yesterday, she [...]

Last night was a busy night on the wedding prep front. My first stop was mom’s place where I picked up a whole slew of childhood pics of me. Second stop was at my dad and stepmom’s place, for the same reason. I got a pretty solid stack of photos, and tonight I’ll have to [...]

Crazy times. Things have never been more chaotic in our household — TempCat™ coming and going, social and wedding planning schedules that are utterly insane, financial planning, honeymoon planning, plus both our jobs, my framebuilding thing, and all that jazz. You’d think that this would be the causation of some pretty interesting arguments. In reality, [...]

This will come as a newsflash to no one: I am still wildly in love with Kate. About three months from now, we’ll be tying the knot, and I’m pretty excited about that. (Yes, you can expect a lot of pictures being posted here.) So excited, in fact, that I am having trouble writing my [...]

So another weekend is in the books. This one’s kind of a wash. Friday, I got laid off from Penn. A downer, to be sure, but at the same time, I’m not really surprised. It’s been pretty slow there so far, plus we were overstaffed every time I was there. Thus. Yeah, well, you know. [...]

Last night was the perfect two-year anniversary. I got her a card and flowers. While she cooked, I hit up Surdyk’s for wine and beer and cheese. After dinner, we left the TV off and sat on the couch together, alternating between talking and reading. Then we went to bed around midnight. It was an [...]

It was a very cold December night. I was working at the bike shop and was pretty nervous. See, I had a date lined-up around the corner at the Herkimer. Kate was waiting for me in front of the shop. We did the small talk thing while we walked over. There was beer. I don’t [...]

One of things that’s bugged me since leaving college, Internet, is that I can feel my brain slipping away as time goes by. This is doubtless the result of not feeding it enough in the last eleven or so years, and is compounded by the advent of microblogging and typical Gen-X malaise. The combined factors [...]
