I got married last weekend.  Also, as you may have noticed, I'm not really spending time on LJ these days.  Still, hope you're well, Live Journal audience.  I think of you guys, even if I don't write about it ( Read more... )

David H., I'm looking for you.  Send me an email at (my last name) @ gmail.com.

So I forgot to post this on Livejournal (sorry, it's just not my primary blogging location) - I'm engaged!  Lowell proposed to me on Monday night.  We have no firm idea when or where the wedding will be, but I expect it'll be about a year from now in either Austin or Tulsa ( Read more... )

I am now officially hired!  I start work on Tuesday morning as a Master Carpenter for the UT-Austin Performing Arts Center.  In short, this means that I will be building scenery and instructing college students for 40 hours a week.  It should be good.  We'll see.  I'm excited.

That was a bit sucky.  Cheers to my cousin and her friends, who did their best to make a spot for me in their group on short notice.  In attendance: my cousin's friend group, as previously noted; a slew of football players (reunion was organized by two of them); a couple of the art-group people; and many of the popular girls in my class.  Notably ( Read more... )

Tubing is good fun.  Can't believe it took me this long to discover it.  Also, Austinites - Barton Creek is running high enough to tube, at least for the next day or two.

Okay.  Go here to see some photos from my recent circumnavigation of Iceland.  Some of them are pretty.  Many of them involve puffins.

I'm back from Iceland.  It was a pretty amazing trip.  I'll post photos soon on my Flickr account - see my personal info for that address (as I'm too lazy to figure out how to link to it right now).

Other than that, I'm doing laundry, unpacking, and waiting for some sort of inspiration.  Nothing exciting here.
