not really here for a while

[geekchick]

I haven't really done more than skim LJ at best since Friday sometime, but I wanted to thank everyone for the birthday wishes (even though I haven't gotten to reply to them all yet). Extremely quick recap: Friday I had a nice, slack evening with dinner and a movie (both of which were rather mediocre, alas, but the company was excellent). Saturday was my Seventh 29th Birthday (Observed), and 16 of us went to Sakura for dinner. I had a lovely time, although seating arrangements meant I didn't get to spend as much time talking to everyone as I would've liked. In addition to spending the evening with a bunch of wonderful folks, I got several nifty birthday presents, among which was a bottle of Glenlivet 18 year old that we proceeded to put a nice little dent into after dinner. And did I mention this little surprise present from Chris that appeared at the end of the evening?



:D

Will probably elaborate later, but right now I need to work on packing for a week in Orlando at php|tek and go to bed so I can be up for a doctor's appointment at the crack of dawn.

Congratulations! What a beautiful ring. :-)

[geekchick]

Thanks. =) He's got good taste in jewelry, and since he's a smart man, we're both on the "if you're going to spend three months' salary on something, it'd be better for it to be the honeymoon" page. ;)

Cayne and I would like to take you out on Thursday evening for a celebratory dinner.

I am happy to pass along my wedding hell icon (as appears here), any of my wedding planning books that I still have, and whatever help or support I can offer as your plans progress.

And of course, congratulations and much joy and love to follow you down this path.

I'll drop you a note about Thursday; I'm over by the airport and I have a rental car, so I can meet y'all pretty much wherever.
