Okay, back.
I was going to podcast with TJ tonight, but I just didn't get the time. Hopefully soon like over the weekend.
Anyway, to continue my story. After the whole Budget thing passed, things were good and fun. Chris and Alicia was visiting for a few more days of vacation. We hit one of the coasts, Tillamook and the cheese factory (had an awesome grilled cheese sandwich there), Japanese Garden, 4th of July fireworks, etc. Overall it was a fun time and was good to see them since we won't as frequently. They just moved about 10 minutes from where they used to be.
After they left and a couple of days had passed, Laura's parents and Ellen visited for a week. Between that time, Laura and I (her mostly) scrambled to get the entire moving thing done with and unpacked. We barely made it, but there are still lots of boxes in the garage. Probably will stay that way for a while.
Work is, well, going. That's about it on that topic.
We've been into Netflix a lot lately, primarily because a) we don't have digital cable anymore, just basic with like 15 channels and only 1 is even worth watching (Discovery) and b) we are using the 2-month gift certificate TJ got us. We like it, especially the instant watch stuff.
TJ just moved to Atlanta. I think they are doing well despite them having a little struggle with the first house they chose, but things are looking up.
What else...dunno, really. The daily routine has been pretty set for the last month or so, but now that Laura is going to be working too, I think things will need to adjust a bit. The dogs are going to be very bored every day now that we will leave them by themselves from approximately 7:30 to 4:45pm or something.
I just finished Sarah's wedding video and Laura will be shipping them off tomorrow. I think it came out okay, considering the limited amount of footage that I had to work with. While doing it, I started to really want to video weddings, perhaps for side money, but it's hard because I'm sure clients would want a better looking camera than my small, flash, handheld. At the VERY least, I wish it were HD. The low light quality isn't too good on this cam, either. But, yeah, we'll see how that pans out. I really like doing stuff like that. In that way, I do miss my old job, being so computer-oriented and all. Fulfillment, however, after next Tuesday, is going to get hit HARD with reality...I don't feel bad, though.
Oh, Saturday we celebrated our 2-year anniversary by going to this Japanese restaurant on the East side. It was super good except for getting the check. It took like 15 minutes because our waitress totally forgot about us. Oh well...still good food, I guess.
Here's to many more years!
