guess how old this blog is? no, not a few hours old, like most blogs are when they get their first post, because normal people make the blog, edit it for a few hours and then actually post something. but no way, bro, that's not how we do it in this household. and as a result, this blog is actually six months old. i made it a few weeks after we got married in may, after i promised about eight thousands friends and relatives that i'd be sure to give them a way to check up on our life here in california...because only crazy people move to this coast, so obviously our lives would be so fascinating that the internet would love nothing more than to devour all the details of our newly-married, newly-uprooted, newly reality show-esque lives.
well, sorry folks, but after i initially made this blog, i came to the cruel realization that our life did not measure up to the standards of a really interesting newlywed blog (plus i couldn't come up with a clever enough name) so i scrapped it. then today, one of my best friends texted me and asked "how do you make a blog?" and as a result i remembered this blog, floating out in the cyberspace of wherever neglected blogs go to die, and i thought "who cares how interesting our life is to strangers? i think it's the freaking best and i want something to document it!" plus, i really miss our friends and families, and somehow it is oddly comforting to know that all the people i love best in this world can see these words and pictures minutes after i post them. like our lives aren't happening so separately after all. so, welcome to our blog. it isn't necessarily a newborn, but hey, newborns kinda look like aliens, and around six months is when babies start to really get cute and fun anyways.
