It's been a hectic few weeks. Here's what I've been up to:
1) Organizing the entire itinerary for my family's 2-week trip to Japan: We leave in 16 days. We will be spending 4 days in Tokyo, 4 in Kyoto, 2 on Mt. Koya, 1 in Osaka, and 3 driving between Kanazawa/Shirakawago/Takayama/Matsumoto. Whew. I'm trying to get all the reservations ironed out, get everyone their rail passes (etc), and study Japanese in the evening as a refresher.
2) Planning the wedding We've chosen a venue and talked with the planner. We also just met with our photographer, who was in Seattle for a few days. Our engagement photos are amazing and I can't wait to show them off. For the purpose of all things wedding, please refer to our new wedding blog speyerwedding.com. I'm designing it as we speak, though it probably won't be up until I come back from Japan. Yes, I will post about things like dresses there, but I probably won't upload any photos of myself in them because Justin (for some reason) prefers not to see me in a wedding dress before the wedding-- I think he wants to maximize the impact.
3) Editing photos: I have 2 days worth of Glacier pics to edit, several from Brad & Sarah's wedding in Vida, Oregon, and a set from backpacking 27 miles last weekend. And no time to do it.
4) Business as usual: We're doing year-end campaigns at work and it's still RFP season. I have to write a metric f*ckton of press releases. And I can't concentrate AT ALL. Grrrreat. :P
I will try to get back on the horse soon, but chances are that we won't be writing much until I get back from Japan. Justin, too, has just started a new term of nursing school, which means new clinicals and classes-- and he also just got his first paid nursing job. Hurrah! Yay! In any case, he's busy too. We'll be back.
