Easter Dinner

Scott and I hosted Easter dinner this year and it was lots of fun. It's been a long time since I've been able to decorate a table for a special holiday, which is one of my favorite things about holidays. Another thing of note is that we got a new camera! Unfortunately we forgot to break it out when we actually had people at our house. But Scott took lovely pictures of the table setting, don't you think?

Today is the big day!

I'm nervous. Today I am going under the knife (laser). I don't know how many times I have researched and asked and even dreamed about this time (I did dream about three separate dreams last night), but now that it is actually happening today I am nervous. Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (this is where I sniff precociously and push my glasses up my nose for the last time and hope nobody asks why its not called "LAISK" instead) has been a dream of mine ever since I first heard about it in high school. Actually, I first heard of RK, but that scares me far more, and I am glad that that is "so 80s" now. I'll give you more details about the procedure afterwards, if you want to know. I just realized that from now on I won't have the convenience of a mild-mannered, bespectacled alter-ego. I will have to assume my Super form 24-7, now. Britta, I hope you can handle that.

Farewell for now.

Its been nice knowing you.

Killer Bunnies and Irish Corpses

This past weekend Jeff and Nettie came to town to seal Calvin. It was beautiful, and lots of fun to have so much family in town. Unfortunately, I forgot my camera. But I did meet one of Nettie's sisters, Kelli, who knew me because I was the one with decoration crazy neighbors. In honor of that, I decided y'all needed an update:

They should put these back up for Halloween, especially if they want to scare away all the trick-or-treaters.
