why today is special

1. It’s the release date of the new Counting Crows album, Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings.

2. It’s exactly two months until my wedding.

gaining some focus

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about why I blog. Originally, it was to keep in touch with my friends back East after I moved to Omaha. I shared with them anecdotes about how I was adjusting to my new life.

But I’ve decided I want this to be more than just a diary of my daily activities. I want this blog to be an exercise in self-discovery, a place to catalog my interests and an open forum for whatever is on my mind. So I’m going to be writing more posts on topics that interest me, including design and fashion and celebrities and pop culture, and not just posts about me. As I learn how to use my new digital SLR you can expect more photos and posts about photography too.

I hope this small tweak to my blog allows my readers, whether old friends or new, to get a better understanding of who I am. If you enjoy what you read here, please drop by often!

not on my to do list

Dinner in the sky? Sorry, at 165 ft. in the air, I don’t think I’d have much of an appetite. Would you?

Oh, Adam. You were 30. I was only 15. There was no way it could have worked between us. Trust me, I was more broken up about it than you.
