Happy 2010!

..., nobody cares about the details of my wedding but me, so I have nobody to share this fun with. Ha! Last night was a blast. Until it was time to leave, that is. By 12:30, after we'd toasted, celebrated, and eaten our buffet dinner, the five of us (Bam and I, my sister and brother-in-law, and Krista's friend Karen, whose husband was away on business) were more than ready to go home. What can I say...

Whirlwind vacation

...out to the garage to experiment with the glass fusing microwave kiln thing I bought myself. We rung in the New Year on EST so Georgia and my parents could stay up for it, then Jason and Lauren and I celebrated up to the local New Year by ourselves. The major networks cut-off the ball-drop show around 11pm EST and delayed it an hour, but CNN carries it live, so I might use that trick in future with...
