Happy New Year!!!
It's 2008 people. And we have big plans.
A few new things that we are looking forward to in the new year:
1. We're learning how to salsa. That's big!
2. We're going to be putting the condo on the market! (That's bigger!)
3. We're looking for a fabulous, bigger and better NEW place to buy (that's the biggest)
Of course, we both want to be happy and healthy in the new year, but the housing situation is the big deal. We'll continue to post as much as we can to keep you updated on our progress and we go through the motions of buying and selling in this questionable market. We're really excited about what lies ahead, and look forward to our first housewarming party.
A few obvious questions, answered:
1. We are going to stay in the city
2. Ideally, we'd love to stay in Lincoln Square
3. We have a bunch of great recommendations for real estate agents !
4. We've been pre-approved for a very generous amount for our loan. Now, the question is how much we actually want to borrow!
5. No, we aren't having babies yet.
Do you know anyone who would like to move into a slightly lived-in 600 sq. ft condo? If so, we'll cut them a deal!!!

50 Ways to Beat the Reaper
Now that I'm married, I want my husband to last forever. I found this very cute article on msn.com called "50 Ways to Beat the Reaper". It's got both funny and serious ways to live a long and healthy life.
You can thank me later.

Newly-wed?
So, I'm supposed to be some happy little newlywed. And I haven't been home with my husband for more than a few hours since the wedding! Where have I been? WORK. I've spent more late nights this month than I have in the whole 2 years I've worked here. (tonight included... it's 10:45p and I'm still at my desk).
I don't know what it is about the holiday season. But without fail, I don't spend the time at home, or with friends. I spend it at work. At least, this year, there is a silver lining. This year, I still HAVE a job. Those who know me may have noticed the pattern of finding myself jobless by the end of December. A discouraging trend that I am happy to say I may have broken.
But still, Fiscal Year-end budgets need to be spent, and I'm happy that they are being spent with my company. But when thinking about the other things that happen at year end (i.e. holidays) I would have been happier to be able to have them spent with my husband.

'Tis the Season
So, after spending Saturday afternoon in the office (fun, I know!) we met up with a few of our friends, and went to the KrisKrindelmart (or something). It's basically a little German village with beer and hot cider, and Brats with Kraut. Good stuff. We've gone a few years in a row now, and it's always fun, but always WAY too cold out. We thought James (a recent transplant from South Africa) was going to die.
So we made our way over to Fado, a good standby for a beer. And the ENTIRE place was filled with Santas. There was one in roller skates. Another carrying around his own xmas tree. Another, the Santa Master, had a microphone and was controlling the crew in christmas songs. There were literally 50 - 70 Santas!
After talking to a few of them, we come to find out that they are all doing this for charity, to support the Homestead foundation. They all looked like they were having a great time.
After a while, they took off, headed for the next bar of the day, but they certainly left the place filled with smiles and good cheer! A night we won't soon forgot.

This guy did a mean Stevie Wonder!

Anyone out there?
Does anyone look at this anymore?
It's been a bit chaotic in my world since the wedding, so I haven't been writing anything, but if anyone is still checking in, I'll keep it updated so can updated on the various things going on. I must admit, I do like writing it.
So, post a comment if you read this. Thanks.

WEIRD!
Don't get me wrong here, I love my husband, and I'm certainly happy that I married him. But how come this girl, WHO I WENT TO HIGH SCHOOL WITH, and partied with on multiple occations (ok, granted, we hung out with her cute older brother more then her, and she kind of hated us for it). How 'come SHE gets to be engaged to Kevin Frickin' Youkilis. 
Granted, she did date Ben Affleck a few years ago too, right after he got dumped by J.Lo. (I was on an airplane cross country, reading my US weekly when I spotted her pic on page 7). I guess she was destined for fame and and fortune. If only we knew that when were were in high school. I would have tried harder to be her friend :) Although, to all of you who knew her too... you'd agree, she was crazy scary back then. She wanted to kick ALL of our butts.
