Baby Will

hello!

It's been a long time since I've posted anything on this blog!

In a few days Jed and I are headed back to Cambridge for a week. We're also going to spend a few days in Copenhagen. We decided to go to Copenhagen b/c we really enjoyed our time in Stockholm and wanted to go back to Scandinavia. I love the the crisp air in Northern Europe, how the cities are on the water, the cycling culture, and the meats/cheese with a slice of bread for breakfast.

I'm also really excited about going back to Cambridge. I think that I'm actually feeling a little homesick for Cambridge and England. England is just so lovely. I remember all of the great runs that I did along the river Cam out to Grantchester and then along the river towards Waterbeach. Man, I was in such good running shape then! I'm hoping to run along the river a couple of times and also take my camera out along the river and get a few good pictures.

I'm also going to spend a few days in London. I'm really excited to go to Kew Gardens. I wasn't into gardening when I lived in the UK, so I'm glad that I get to go there now! I'm planning on planting a perennial shade garden, perennial sun garden, rose garden, so I'm hoping that I can get some ideas over there.

Santa brothers

Jed and I grew up 750 miles apart, but each Christmas morning we awoke to the same hand knit Santa stocking. Santa always brought lip balm, chocolate, socks, underwear, earrings, and a deck of cards.

Road Trip

I'm not going on a road trip, but Jed and our good friend from college and Jed's roomie for 3 years are in Scotland and Northern England for a couple of days. I think that they are having a fun time. Jed said that the drive up the A1 that goes along the coast of England is gorgeous. I went to Edinburgh in March 06, (have I been over here that long?!) to see Nickel Creek perform and to visit a friend who was studying abroad in Edinburgh. Right now the big festival is happening so I think that Jed and Colin will get a different taste of Edinburgh that I did. I bet that Jed will blog about it when he gets back.

I had my first wedding nightmare last night! I won't bore you with the details of the dream, but I thought that it was 3:20 when it was actually 4:20 and the wedding was supposed to start at 4:00. All of the guests were patiently waiting for the ceremony to start, but my hair was unwashed, up in a pony, and I was not in my dress. I wonder how many more nightmares I'll have before 29th December?

In other news, I'm back to work on Monday. Three more weeks and then my 3 plus years at CA is over.

I thought about going into London for the day, but I have a few things to do in Cambridge. I might though go and see the Simpsons movie tonight. I want to see it, but Jed doesn't have much interest. People have said that it's pretty funny, not great, but glad that they went.

Pictures site

Yesterday I went through some of my pictures and posted them to Picasa. If you click on the link "My pictures" on the right hand side, you'll be able to see them. Cool, huh?
