Kidding. A happy birthday to my wonderful, sexy, intelligent, understanding, funny and amazing husband. I wish very much I could find the words to say all that I want to about him and how I feel, but he really is indescribable. He is home to me; in him I find my greatest comfort, my greatest [...]
I am beginning this book list entry with less than 100 pages to go in Pat Conroy’s latest—and first in 14 years—South of Broad. And let me just say this before I continue: agony! Agony! AGONY!!!111elevnty!!!11
Sorry, Mr. Conroy. I will return to this after I finish the book. Hold on one second . . .
Okay, [...]
She insists on calling me Mrs. IPia. I insist on correcting her and telling her my name is Mrs. WordNerd WordNerdia IPia. She then clucks dismissively and tells me that I’m ultimately Mrs. IPia. Um. NO. There’s a reason why I kept my entire name intact and added IP’s: I wasn’t going to erase 31 years of the [...]
Now that wedding planning is over (yay!) and I have a new husband (double yay!), I figure now’s a good a time as any to move onto new and exciting projects that have been neglected while we planned the wedding. The projects and/or activities include things we’ll be doing together. I also have a list [...]
Of all the wedding sneak peeks that I have, all of them show our faces (and the joy there), but they’re all too, too personal to share on this blog, especially the blog of someone who wishes to remain anonymous. I finally decided on this one because it’s not only of us newly married, but [...]
Embarrassingly enough, I’ve let the book list suffer tremendously this year. Not only am I not updating it on this blog, I’m also not reading thanks to the wedding. I was totally consumed by our nuptials to the point of ridiculousness, I’d say; wanting to make every detail perfect really interferes with even your most [...]
The next time you’re staying at a Marriott property and find yourself with a) bottles of beer and 2) no bottle opener, try the dresser drawer handles as an alternative. IP and I believe you’ll find yourself pleasantly surprised (and relieved)!
Cheers!

“You and your wife will be happy in your life together.”

IP: *paraphrasing an email from a friend* And she says that she can’t wait for the wedding and to give you a hug.
WordNerd: Aww.
*IP stands and gives WordNerd a hug, then sneaks in a butt pinch for good measure*
WordNerd: I really hope that wasn’t in the email.
IP: I’m just putting my own spin on it.
