Here’s a bit of wishful thinking…
Yesterday, Chris and I were walking to dinner and discussing how couples tend to gain weight once they get married. Determined to go in the opposite direction, Chris proclaimed, “we should make a pact. If either of us gains fifty pounds, the other can sleep with someone else. Pregnancy not [...]

With 25 days left until we officially become Mr. and Mrs. We-Haven’t-Figured-It-Out-Yet, the only word to describe how I am feeling is:
Over-scheduled.
Within the next month:
We will say goodbye to Roxy. (Right now it’s scheduled for next week, but we’re hoping to keep her through the end of the trip.)
We will get married.
We will find an [...]

Dear San Francisco,
While I was gone, I must admit that I didn’t miss you too much. But that was understandable, because we were pretty busy – visiting friends and family, driving through incredible nature, and whale watching.
Now that I’m back, I want to give a shout out to the things that I missed – my [...]

Roxy is solely responsible for eliminating my Fat Car Ass. She drives me to the gym when I don’t feel like getting up in the morning and encourages me to go to the mountains for long afternoon hikes. While we have several days left of interviews and meet-ups, Roxy has promised me that she’ll take [...]

The following confirmation email just appeared in my inbox:
Location: Office of the County Clerk
Service Description: Marriage License Reservation
Date: Tuesday, July 21, 2009
Time: 8:30am
With: Marriage License Reservation
Crazy that one of the most important decisions Chris and I will ever make can be scheduled via an online service. And on our two-year anniversary, no less.
My feet are [...]

I first met Erin and Alex about a month into dating Chris. Erin and I had insta-friend chemistry, which was awesome, considering she’s one of Chris’s favorite people. I imagined that Erin and I would spend endless time together, laughing, dancing, and skipping through the City, matching charm bracelets adorning our golden wrists.
I’ve seen Erin [...]

Everyone who has owned a car in San Francisco has a scary parking story. Mine took place five years ago in North Beach, an especially hilly section of the city. I was parallel parking on a downhill slope when I “tapped” the bumper of the car in front of me. “Tapping” is common practice with [...]

We’re back in San Francisco, something that inspires mixed emotions for both Chris and me. While Chris is off at work earning his keep, I’m here at my apartment, catching up on episodes of The Bachelorette, working on freelance assignments, and plotting the in-state visits that will take place over the next thirty-six days. Apparently, there’s no rest for the wicked (or the Wedding Road Trippers). Roxy is parked outside on the street, basking in the late afternoon sun. I think she’s happy to have a bit of a rest before we take her out on the road once again. She’s not much of a city driver like her cousin the Fusion Hybrid, but she’ll do navigate the San Francisco streets if we make [...]
