I suck at this blogging thing

Time for an update?

Things that have happened since July:

• Went to Alaska for our honeymoon. It was really cool. Although the ship got a little claustrophobic after a while, it was stunningly beautiful.
• Miranda's bachelorette party at Foxwoods. I won $100 on a 25 cent slot machine.  We ran up a $300 bill at the Hard Rock, $240 of which was alcohol.
• Our first wedding anniversary.  We ate the top of our wedding cake for a week.
• Started reading the Twilight series. All other activities ceased during the intial reading of all four books. Life as I know it will be forever changed.
• Miranda & Matt's wedding on October 19th.  Got to use the line: "Marriage.  Marriage is what brings us together . . .today." in my maid of honor toast, thus fulfilling a lifelong dream.  Ate lots of white castle.
• Went to New York city on Halloween.  Insane.
• Met my brother's new girlfriend.  Big thumbs up, she seems to have a very calming effect on him.
• Visited Amherst for the first time in a year in a half.  Twilight movie premiere weekend. Words fail me.
• Saw Twilight.
• Saw Twilight.
• Operation Freedom:  Cross-country drive with Aly & Fubar from Flagstaff, AZ to Kingston, NH.  3 girls, 1 dog and one seriously road worn Honda Passport arrived in (mostly) full working order after four days on the road.
• Saw Twilight.
• Rachel Rothstein came to visit from Atlanta. Made cookies, watched movies, hit up the Museum of Science, visited the statue of George Washington on a horse in the Boston Public Garden.  Rang in 2009 in style on the sofa.
