Lazy Weekend

We were lazy this weekend and it was  SO. NICE.  We cleaned up the living room a bit, ran a few errands.  Tonight, Rob was able to network the PS3 to our house server and I think SkyNet will become self-aware by the end of the evening.  We can now play every MP3 file over our TV and watch videos too.  It’s great!  Now I can torture him with Justin Timberlake in the house AND the car.  Mwahahahaha!

My wedding dress arrived on Saturday and it will need to be altered.  But at least it’s here!  The arrival date kept getting pushed back so I was worried it would get pushed back again and I’d have a dress arriving the day of the wedding.   But not so!  Yay!  Rob has seen the fabric but that’s it.  We took it over to my mom’s to hang in my room there so it doesn’t get dirty or accidentally peeked at.  So the big things are done.  Whew.  Now it’s down to the details and onto the big day!

We’re going to hit the 2 months to go mark tomorrow.

Oh man these pics turned out so much better than the last ones. It was hard to pick but these are the ones we liked the best. If you’d like copies, please let me know. We can order some from our photographer.

And then Aaron asked us to kiss.

Bleech! Kissing?! Who said there would be kissing?

Weekends are fun

On Friday afternoon, we were both pretty fried from an overly stressful week.  So we hopped in the car and drove to Monterey.  Traffic was bad but as soon as we got past I-5, things got better.  The weather was gorgeous and because we were there late enough, the crowds had gone away.  We drove 17 Mile Drive and watched the sunset over Bird Rock.  It was gorgeous.  We walked on the beach at Asilomar and I think Rob truly loves California now. 

We got home late Friday and slept really late on Saturday.  After puttering around, we finally broke out the BBQ and got it cleaned up for the summer.  I found an awesome grilled chicken recipe and we had a great early dinner on the patio.  I cannot wait for summer to be here so we can relax and do that all the time. 

Yesterday, we ran errands.  Mostly browsing for stuff for the backyard.  We are thinking of putting in a fountain or some type of water feature back there so we went to the water garden place north of town and wandered around.  We found something we like but it’s a matter of the money now.  We stopped at the nursery on the way home and got some new plants for the pots on the front porch.

Ruminating

To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep:
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to,–‘t is a consummation
Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there’s the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressor’s wrong, the proud man’s contumely,
The pangs of despised love, the law’s delay,
The insolence of office and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover’d country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action.

 

William Shakespeare, “Hamlet”, Act 3 scene 1
