we're going HERE!!
Wien, the capital of Austria, our future destination!
The choral society has accepted an invitation to sing in the Haydn Festival in 2009. We're really excited to be able to travel abroad together. Initially we were going to Italy with TC alums but with the cancellation of that tour this opportunity was open. We've jumped and we can't wait!
I believe Mike will be singing here. This means a saucy dress, high heels, and some gorgeous jewelery.
oooohhhh... ahhhhh.
simply stunning

just a few reasons why we can't get enough of Mel Brooks:

- large German women named Broomhilde
- "She's got to be kidding."
- guessing?
- musical interludes

absurd AND beautiful
I've been meaning to comment on this photo for some time. Mike brought home this ad from the shop and now it resides on our fridge. It is both beautiful and ridiculous. Gorbi in Louis Vuitton, sitting next to Louis Vuitton. Now THAT is a juxtaposition I thought I'd never live to see!

Hello New Year!
and hello friends.
Christmas was a whirlwind time that flew past too quickly. Tickety boo, here I am after my first day back to school. Mike and I began an on-going digital Christmas card. You can view it here. We're pretty proud of it and hope you'll keep up with it, as well as us, for years to come.
At the start of my break we had a good meal with our neighbors. We enjoy their company quite a bit. Then it was on to Mexican with some colleagues. After that much needed social time we were ready for break. We also saw Sweeny Todd and it was brilliant. Johnny Depp- he's the bees knees. The Friday prior to Christmas was spent at Market Street Books for their fifth anniversary festivities. This included (but was not limited to) the piano styling of Eric, food, wassail (Ala me), Christmas story hour, and a visit from Santa for story time. All the while Mike was fighting off a cold of some sort. Fighting it quite poorly I might add. We got home and he ran a high fever for the next two days. I think he's still fighting the phlegm and cough. Poor thing.
Christmas Eve was also spent at Market Street. After a day at the store we headed home to change and then went to Durham. We attended the Duke service which was a lesson of the carols. It was lovely.
Christmas morning was pleasant. It was relaxing and most importantly spent at our own pace. Family time is great but it is a real joy to spend a major holiday without any stress or obligations. Good first Christmas. After all this we headed up to my parents home.
The week continued on with my family, then Mike's family (plus our favorite Rachel), then with Jake in Pittsburgh. Might I say we heart Pittsburgh- a lot. Jake lives a few blocks from Station Square and the incline. Not only does the city have a great skyline but it also has the most terrifying streets known to man. The three of us ate dinner at Fat Heads (delicious by the way) and Jake drove. He deliberately took us the "long" way just so he could drive down the most treacherous road ever. You make the turn onto the street and the road disappears from underneath you. I squealed a little. This could be due to the saw stowed behind my head as well. Overall, great food and thrills.
Now in the midst of all of this craziness we got gifts. Lots of gifts. I'm not going to list them because I hate when people rattle off everything they got. I will say I kept cozy with a new North Face jacket and Mike continued rocking with Guitar Hero III for Wii. If I told you how much we've played GHIII in the last week you'd cry of laughter. That means a lot. I am up to 'medium' playing level which is a huge advancement for me. Mike is having his face eaten by level 'hard'. This is unusual you see because he plays expert on everything else and makes it through the game quickly.
Alrighty, I said I was going to get some work done and I wrote a blog entry. Awesome. Ah well, back to Guitar Hero. Weezer is calling my name. My name is Jonas.
