First Update of the Year

Mar 20, 2014 11:14

I have some down time at work, so I decided to check in. I think I posted updates 2 or 3 times total last year. I blamed Facebook for a long time, but I haven't really been posting to FB much lately either. Really, it's just habit; I've gotten out of the habit of writing.

Yep, that was ironic in an entirely bad way. I like Monterey too. I also like Chico, in which a couple of our friends live.

Thanks, Dave. The timing on this LJ update and the very different FB update is slighly embarrassing.

It's crazy. I met Cheryl over 8 years ago, and we've been married for about 6 and a half. I do remember my initial giddy updates about falling in love. It somehow feels impossible that it was that many years ago, and in other ways it feels like a few lifetimes ago.
