I just noticed that its been almost three weeks since my last post, and closer to four weeks since my last substantive post. There hasn't been much excitement in my life this month (maybe I should consider joining the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
non_entities group!), though I did vicariously enjoy ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
skyring's adventures in London, and the various stories from the bookcrossing convention in Fort Worth. I've also been following the news coverage of the new Pope, but haven't resolved my own feelings and thoughts about the election enough to post on that topic.
My wife and I have been trying to plan a short getaway as a make up for our anniversary, since the week of our anniversary was a hectic week that didn't leave us any time to do something for ourselves. Unfortunately, we are having trouble finding an affordable destination that we both will enjoy. It has to be a short trip, as we have quite a bit of other travel planned, and work issues are conspiring to limit our travel time. Hopefully we'll come up with something, as we really need to get away, even if its only for a couple of nights.
My best friend from my college days is going to be in town this weekend. I've long considered him to be a bit commitment-phobic on the relationship front, so I was surprised to learn recently that he's engaged. We haven't gotten together in a couple of years, so I'm looking forward to them coming over for dinner on Friday.
On Sunday, my parents arrive to take our younger daughter to the beach for a few days. They'll spend the night Sunday before continuing on to Virginia Beach, and then again on Thursday night before going to visit my brother in Maryland. Its always good to seem my parents, and the girls are looking forward to seeing their grandparents.
So, it looks like I'll be a bit busier for a few days. At least it isn't chores...
