Shark week is apparently on everyone's lips. Well, modify--everyone that we know of and see on a daily basis in grad school. Our friends are strictly confined to an exclusively nerdy crowd.
Blake and I have made significant headway in this blog project. HE DESIGNED THE TITLE BANNER!!! He spent many sleepless hours (right before going to bed), shed a sea of invisible sweat, and took his Photoshop skills to a brand new level.
So a big round of applause to Shijie! It has been tested and proven that she possesses exquisitely fine taste in finding a computer-savvy husband. I simply cannot congratulate her enough. Good job.
Good job.
Switch back to first-person narrative. Blake and I went to Borders to snatch some end-of-summer reads. Because I am an awful person, I sincerely wished the discount could have been more generous. Come on, everything must go!
Also, with my newly acquired knowledge of itunes, I am starting to make an alternative wedding music playlist, tentatively featuring Weezer's "Island in the Sun" and Coldplay's "Every Teardrop is A Waterfall." I have one mild fear that Blake would dominate the ceremony with his eclectic music choice. I absolutely object to playing "Fistful of Sand" or "An Honest Mistake" on that occasion.
Summer is finally coming to an end. How do we know that in Tucson? 115 degrees of steamy hotness.
My end-of-summer resolution entails doing more leisure reading, cleaning my room, feeding Blake well, and spending quality time with friends.
I would like to think that Blake's end-of-summer resolution is to (1) love Shijie; (2) work out and sculpt those baby six-packs; (3) rest well and take mind off work when not at work; and (4) love Shijie. I know he would love to loop his resolution.
As shark week has taught us, looping and recycling old documentaries makes history, generates wide-spread interest, and elevates an unremarkable sea creature to iconic status.
