For the last month, I thought about two things -- a job change and my wedding. Self-centered, aren't I?
It's out of control. I waste hours looking at dresses and wedding bands and receptions sites online, only to turn around and waste another few hours searching for news or rumors or reports on the new team I'll be covering. Sorry to be coy and keep the identity of that team so hush-hush, but I haven't officially been moved onto the beat yet. Ask me in person, and I know nothing. I really can't talk about it until it's finalized, but let's just say I have a lot of work ahead of me.
As for the wedding, we have a wedding site, a reception site, and hopefully by Tuesday, an officiant. Most of the wedding party has been named. My ring has been resized. We've hashed out a budget. I've tried on dresses at four stores and made the obligatory Web site on theknot.com -- that would be here:
http://weddings.theknot.com/pwp/view/co_main.aspx?coupleid=3255984216824375. I have thought about what kind of food, colors, music, invitations and photography I'd want. So really, we're ahead of the curve right now.
The other thing that has occupied some of my time has been religion. You know how they say big things happen in your life in threes? Well, apparently mine are marriage, a new job, and a possible return to Christianity. I don't want to get into it, really, because I can't say I'm in a place yet where I can talk about things. I'll just say this -- I believe that Jesus Christ was the son of God, that he died for our sins and that he was ressurected into heaven. That alone makes me a Christian. I recognize that now, which is really the one real change. I still don't know quite what to do with that information though.
OK. I have a million things to do, per usual. Until later, take care.
