Listen, work is insane. All the time. This is like extreme job security, I guess.<\/p>\n

Here are some items that have happened in the past week!<\/p>\n

1) We put up our Christmas tree! I was all panicked that I was unprepared for Christmas gift-giving this year, and then everything worked out, and we’re close to done already.<\/p>\n

2) My pomegranate bitters are done! Look how pretty they are:<\/p>\n

3) We started registering! I still don’t understand why you’re supposed to register so early, but I’m just doing what the timelines tell me. Also, despite our fears that an overeager ‘personal shopper’-type lady at Crate and Barrel would accompany us during this process and make me want to stab her, it couldn’t have been easier. Plus it’s really entertaining.<\/p>\n

4) Willis and I may have lifted our bowling team from 3rd-to-last to 4th-to-last yesterday! Despite being abjectly terrible most of the time, we still won and managed to have a couple decent games in the process.<\/p>\n

5) Matt and I tried two new restaurants this week: Pizzeria Lola (about a mile from our house) and Lyndale Tap House (which isn’t new, but we were waiting for it to be less foodie-ridden). Both were great in very different ways. Though I love Luce, and the fact that we can now order online at la casa, it’s nice to have an alternative pizza place sometimes.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow we’ll be joining a bunch of people on Doran’s annual shopping and drinking light rail extravaganza (conveniently abbreviated HLSAMLSDHOE 4), then heading to Triple Rock for the Dropsteppers CD release<\/a>. I’m looking forward to both of those like crazy, and not just because it’ll give me a break from thinking about javascript bugs for a while.<\/p>\n

Happy weekend!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
