Where’s George?

So, I’m not sure if it’s illegal to scan money or not, but I did …. (you all go now, print out this page on your color laser writer and pass it off at your local Taco Bell).

Actually, that’s not the point of this post. The point, silly, is that you should look closely at the bill and then head on over to Where’s George. The George above commutes daily between Burnsville and Northfield, Minnesota, but before that, he made his home in Minneapolis (Uptown? Downtown? The Phillips Neighborhood?). After I pass him off, who knows where the guy’ll be off to … maybe someplace lovely. Wherever he goes, I’ll be checking up on him frequently. So, goodbye George! Farewell, be good, take care!

Ahh, for those of you who are wondering, yes, I’m still engaged. And yes, wedding planning is underway (and for those of you who don’t care about white gowns and buttercream cakes and florally type thingies, I don’t plan on making this a “wedding blog,” so you’re still safe). The date, ceremony location, reception site, and pastor are almost all confirmed … and everything else seems to be well underway. Thank goodness for wonderful friends.I didn’t quite understand this, but it’s still funny as hell. (Best with the volume turned up.) Via my lil’ bro.

Technical difficulties?

If any of you (okay, all 20 of you) were wondering why I haven’t posted for a while, well, it’s been because of a few technical difficulties over in web-hosting land. Ask a techincal question (just out of curiosity, mind you!), and get a result that brings down your web site for oh, a good day and a half. After about half a dozen emails to tech support finally have me up and running again … and I’m thinking of actually starting another personal web site?

Alas. Like you should care. But here is something you should care about: fire safety. Is your apartment building equipped with a good, functioning alarm system? Ask your landlord. And then ask them how many false alarms have happened in recent months. At 1:30 in the morning. And then at 2:30 in the morning. And then ask them if anyone bothers to even leave the building anymore because the fire alarms go off three times in two days. You catch my drift. I am very tired and one of these days I’ll be fried to a crisp when the the fire is real and the building really is burning down. (But, it sure is fun to see those sexy fireman up close every other day!)

Thanks to all of you for your wonderful e-cards and cards in the mail over the past week! Rog and I are quite excited about the whole thing ourselves. More plans to be announced soon.
