Hi guys, Jacinta and I are doing great. I've been really busy finishing work on my dissertation and teaching a new class, and she's been trying to get used to new things around here and trying to keep from getting too bored. Blockbuster's Total Access plus digital cable have definitely helped, although I think it will be much better once we make some more friends around and have time to hang out with them. It will also be better when J gets her license and can get around a bit on her own. In any case, we're so happy to be together.

We're still trying to work out the wedding plans. I thought we'd do the local courthouse thing, but it looks like we're going to Vegas now. Should have the plans sorted out in the next week or so.

Anyone here on Facebook? I've got some pics up there...
