i'm back!

hi friends!

i'm back safe and sound from my honeymoon and boy am i tired! :D
we had the BEST time in thailand and got home late friday night two hours before we left. i tell you, the jet lag we got coming east has been a real bitch to get over. we sleep until noon, barely keep our eyes open at 4p, and are WIDE awake at 1a! it sure made the eagle rock music festival super easy to see shows late at night though. we went this saturday night and saw some fun new bands and some old favorites like the submarines.

{at the concert saturday night in my new thailand dress - the only thing i bought on our honeymoon}

by the way, the international date line is pretty mind-blowing. we had a lot of fun when our friend who picked us up from the airport asked what time we left asia and we got to say, "oh we left a couple hours from now." it's like time travel but with really uncomfortable seats and gross food. :)

so i've only seen a few photos from our wedding {which was the most fun day of my life!}. it usually takes professional photographers a few weeks to get all those hundreds of photos ready, so i'm going to hold off on going into the details of our wedding until i have the pictures to prove it. this week i figured i'd start backwards and tell/show you all the fun we had on our honeymoon.

our first stop in thailand was in phuket which is all beach and just gorgeous {it's where the big tsunami hit back in 2004}. dannon's uncle got us reservations at a fancy resort as our wedding gift and it was amazing. we had a beautiful ocean view from our room where we got to watch the sunset and we were right on the beach. sigh...

and now for an overload of photos from the resort and beach!

it's currently monsoon season in thailand, so it would typically pour for an hour in the afternoons. one of our favorite memories from the resort was taking a swim in the warm, hard rain. it was perfect!

our time at the resort was basically spent lying around, relaxing, and decompressing from all our moving and wedding stress. it was just what we needed to survive all of the adventures we were about to have during the rest of our stay in thailand.

tomorrow i'll share some stories of our big adventure into the bay of bengal!

408 cheytac vs 50 bmg

.408 CheyTac Fredo Viola Aug 29, 10:51 AM This is a real bummer to me. I pride myself on making as little an impact on the environment as I can, but make my living using computers to make music... and I use all Apple products... so I'm feeling really guilty about this right now. 408 CheyTac final.jpg appleguy123 Apr 22, 10:32 PM Because it is the third longest example of drift on PRSI (for now) and since appleguy123 started that one, of course he wants it to continue. Caught! :D Knowing how the PRSI works one naive bump could help me achieve the record. Maadi-Griffin 50BMG Pistol Draythor Apr 13, 04:33 PM GGJstudios Thanks, man. I connect to other drives so rarely that I have never bothered to look this up myself. OT: Does anyone one know why Apple hasn't got this built in? Licensing rights? quot;Is life so dear or peace so AlBDamned Aug 29, 11:14 AM zero evidence, other than my gut feeling. Then that's nothing but semi-diluted Apple fanboi-ism which is, in my op

Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

No 211 - Moulin Rouge! Director - Baz Luhrmann I remember very vividly when I first saw this film. I was in sixth form when it came out, and was a student of 'Theatre Studies', so there was naturally a lot of talk about this overtly theatrical piece. However, I was not convinced that I would enjoy it, it looked overtly soppy, a chicks film. Finally I was convinced to go and see it (Tom Done, who was in the year above and who was utterly terrifying, though who is now a good friend, won me over by stating the line I have used as a title. Surely a film MUST be good if it features unconscious Argentinians and cross dressing dwarfs!). So one evening I went to the Regent cinema in Wantage ( now shut down ) with my best friends Hanna and Richard . The film completely blew me away, and is the only film that has managed to firmly grab my attention in the first second, as the curtains open and the conductor arrives to play the 20th Century Fox theme. It uses the production company's
