Amber's Wedding: Pre-Show Thoughts

So my sister is getting married tomorrow.  Tonight we're rehearsing, and then there will be food.  Tomorrow I'll be in my penguin suit trying to do my part without causing trouble.

I'm getting married myself in May, so I'll be looking to see what works and what doesn't during my little sister's ceremony.  I'm sure it will go on without a hitch, because she won't let things go wrong.  Let's just hope the pictures come out... I mean I'm going to be in them.  If I'm lucky my eyes won't be shut when the flash goes off.

Everyone keep your fingers crossed!

Happy New Year!

Well I guess I should post....

145 days until the wedding. Have the dress, bridesmaids, tuxs, chapel, and will be e-mailing a DJ to let him know that he has our business.

We have toyed with the idea of having the 501st Storm troopers at our wedding. Do you really think that I wouldn't have something that has to do with Star Wars in our wedding? As I was on the site www.501st.com I also came across a site for the founder of the Troopers daughter Katie who is 6 years old and diagnosed with a brain tumor. Empire or not she really pulls at the heartstrings.

Connor and Satine are doing well and will most likely be happy when Adam and I go back to work on Monday UGH!!!

Happy New Year 2005!

This promises to be an interesting year. My sister gets married in about a week, and we're having our "big" wedding party come May. Can't wait for the honeymoon (Disney World if we're lucky).

Had a fun night of playing 90's Trivial Pursuit at my sister's new house in Fort Worth. One of the answers was actually slashdot.org. It helped that there was an entire category on technology.

Also I just started using a tool that runs on the background on my computer. It is a project called World Community Grid. It is a project aided by IBM that takes the extra computer power that's normally just sitting idle and uses it to solve big science problems.

My computer JUST finished processing its first bit of the problem and is sending back its result now! So my first action of the year is to help solve some scientific puzzle. Warm fuzzies for all!!!
