And that is my reentry into the world of spilling your guts for anyone who wants to read about it. As you can see from the comments on the six months of writing below, that's not too many. But those of you who do, you're great, really. So, let's see, what's new?1. I retired from running.
Don't expect any more marathon updates or anything crazy like that. Running and I are over. I can't control myself. I went from about zero running for a few months to nine miles in one day after about four or five weeks. And then I broke down like always, because zero miles to nine miles is overdoing it. I can't run in moderation, so it's over for good.
2. We are settled into the new house.
We've been here long enough to have almost everything put away. We've made a couple of painful payments and stuff is starting to break. Joys of homeownership, right? Anyway, it's awesome. I'm sitting here with the windows open, the breeze at my back, and some unnecessarily long grass within my sights. I'll get to it tomorrow.
3. We got married last week.
Katie and I are official. We flew to Vegas, waited for the families to arrive, and did some gambling. (And then we went to the blackjack tables... ba dum cha!) Really tho, the wedding went well, the ceremony was nice and short. The champagne was cold. After we put the family back on planes, we drove a rented Mustang convertible to the Grand Canyon and did some hiking. Then we went back to Vegas to catch our plane and lost a lot more money that night.
Anyway, I think three complete topics is enough for today. Don't want this to be like running. I'll try to post something else before the end of the year... if anyone is still reading.

We're still reading! We're still reading!
And it's a good thing too, since this is the first I'd heard about giving up running -- that stuff can be dangerous.
At least there's always tennis ....
I still can't comprehend what you ever saw in running anyways. Just the thought of it makes me feel like getting sick.
But don't you ever wish that we were back at a track meet in highschool? Camping out on the football field. Man, life seemed so complicated then.
What new obsessions do you have now?
