Liz and I are in an Internet Cafe, about two blocks away from where we’re staying. And you know what else is about two blocks away? The freaking Notre Dame cathedral. In the mornings and late afternoon, you can just lightly hear the bells going off in the distance. We’re both not terribly jet lagged, …
Liz and I are moments away from heading out the door. We’ve got a ride out to O’Hare, where we’ll be boarding a plane for France (and eventually Italy). Our honeymoon will be a full two weeks, and we’re both incredibly nervous and excited. Me, I’ve never been overseas before. And this is probably the …
Liz and I stayed up way too late last night, going through many of the photos that our photographer Stu (and his assistant Frank) took of our wedding. This is a small drop in the ton of photos we have, but I just quickly grabbed a few and wanted to post them up here to …
I’m someone who’s been updating this blog for some time – making daily posts for a lot of years now. I tend to have my camera on me most of the time, and tend to take photos whenever the mood strikes me. So it’s weird that, on one of the most important days of my …
I had planned on going in to work today, but ended up taking a personal day. I was still pretty wiped out by the wedding, and wanted to rest up a bit. Liz and I spent the morning back at Maxim’s, and packing up a ton of things – gifts, decorations, and all the plates …
These pics are from the morning after the wedding. After we got in to our hotel room, we immediately changed and kicked off our shoes. My suit, draped over the couch (along with Liz’s shoes). Liz’s wedding dress, draped over a nearby chair. The rings (we now have one for me too). In our hotel …
Today’s been a surprisingly busy day. It’s now 11:13PM, and after hosting a pizza party for many of our out of town guests… the apartment has cleared out, and I’m alone typing away in front of my computer. Liz is staying at the Ambassador East hotel this evening, and I’m a bachelor for a few …
Around noon, we had several folks over to our ceremony site to do a quick runthrough of our wedding ceremony. The actual setup itself took longer than the walkthrough, but it was good to have a trial run. L to R it’s my grommsmen Ben, my Best Man Justin, Chris and Jake (who’s overseeing all …
This seems apropos, given the upcoming nuptials: Weddings from Around the World (via MetaFilter).
About 20 minutes ago, Liz Rench (aka the Rabbit Sitter) came to pick up Baxter. With the upcoming wedding this Saturday, we needed someone to look after her over the weekend. And on top of that, with us going on our honeymoon the week after, it just made sense for Baxter to stay with Liz …
This is a note to everyone who’s coming to our wedding: please note that we’ve posted a few updates on our wedding website. First off: the ceremony start time has been changed. We’re now starting everything at 4:00 PM. Also: on Friday, September 11th, we’re hosting a small pre-wedding party at our apartment from 6:00 …
This weekend was a big wedding weekend, with lots of tasks and lists and tasks being checked off of lists. It’s crazy to think that the big day is only days away. Liz, getting in the spirit. This is my Omnifocus view of all the wedding-related stuff. Several things have dropped off this list since, …
I grew up reading a lot of folklore and Roman, Greek and Norse mythology. I still love that stuff. Hearing this guy (who’s done about 12 shots of rum) talk is cracking me up to no end. Fair warning: there are a lot of F-bombs in this video, but they just serve to make things …
Just got an email from Mary, from Northcentral Maltese Rescue. We turned over Henson, a dog we found earlier in the week, over to her rescue group on Thursday. Based on the pics Mary sent, it looks like things went well and he’s on the road to recovery. Henson with a little cone collar. I …
Felix has given the Heimlich Manuever not once... but twice, to two different people. He's happy to report that both attempts were successful.
Felix has perfect pitch. If you play a note, he can guess what it is with a pretty decent degree of accuracy. He attributes this skill to learning music at an early age.
Felix has an Adults Only section, featuring racy photos of him in various poses and outfits. If you are 18 or older, you can view them by clicking here.
