This New Year, I decided to keep things low-key.  Chris and I had a fabulous dinner at Columbia Firehouse in Old Town Alexandria.  We both had some beer and some wine and delicious meat.  Yessir.  Meat. But to start, Chris wanted to try their Tuna Tartare Tacos — say that three times fast! — and I [...]

After weeks of pure madness at work — it started to feel like things were winding down. Well, to me, at least. We constantly have something going on, but I felt like I gained a little bit of control, which is pretty crucial to a well-known control freak. Last Friday, our department packed up our [...]

(Picture taken by Janelle!) I was going to blog about my sister’s bridal shower, but then I didn’t.  I planned to blog about my sister’s bachelorette, but then I didn’t.  So, here I am… blogging about it all!

I owe you bit of an update.  The last thing I posted about was my birthday.  And even with two parts, it was pretty half-assed.  For that, I apologize.  I’ll give you the 411, the low-down, the info-may-chon if I may.  But before I delve any deeper, can I just give two open mic snaps [...]

I don’t know if you noticed, but all of the pictures from part 1 of my birthday series were taken from my iPhone.  I forgot my camera when I moved up to Northern VA and tada!  Chris got me a new lens, a new camera bag, and a new camera strap for my birthday.  My [...]

Oh my goodness.  My birthday was weeks ago and I am now only getting the chance to give you all the scoop. Well, to be honest… there’s not much to tell.  If you know me, I plan my birthdays months out in advance because I’m just ridiculously anal about planning.  But this year was different. [...]

(His birthday was last Thursday.) Ever since I’ve known Chris, he’s always been interested in quotes, inspirational thoughts, and other motivating factors — like speeches, people, etc.  Recently, well, in the past couple of months, I’ve noticed he would have a different manifesto on his desktop every so often.  When I saw The Holstee Manifesto [...]
