Congratulations to my super husband

Just wanted to congratulate Zach for passing the bar exam in California, one of the toughest states to pass. We are flying home on Saturday so he can get sworn in. I am so proud of you babe!

I want my mtv (oh, and internet too)

Three months without home access to the almighty internet and I feel like I could lose it.I've had to drag my laptop to some bar/coffee shop, look for an available outlet, and inhale secondhand smoke just to do the thing you all take for granted, surf the net at home. Well all that is coming to an end next Moday, or so they say. I've had problems with my laptop so that's why I haven't been able to upload pics to my blog. Other than that, the new place is treating us well. We finally got furniture and cable tv! WOW! Ha ha, all of my non tv friends back in Oakland are probably cringing right about now. More to come soon.

Ahhh, the joys of moving.....

How I hate to move. Hopefully it won't happen again for a long, long, time. We just moved into our new flat and we are loving it. However, before we moved in we decided a fresh coat of paint would be needed. Then there was the moving of our items from the old falt to the new. Since we don't have a car and renting one would cost us our first born we took three taxi rides and a few trips by foot. Fun, fun, fun. Now that all the moving is done I finally feel like we are settling down and getting comfy. We have a great yard with herbs and a nice table. Our yard has a gate which opens onto a canal with a great path for running or bike riding. We have great access to Angel which is a nice neighborhood full of restuarants, bars, shops, movie theater, etc. Our home also has a very cosy feel to it. I'll be sure to post some pictures of it soon. Til then, ta ta.
