our joyous day
Leah and I were slightly celebratory today, in recognition of the successful and happy completion of three years of marriage. Yes, today was our third, or "cloth", anniversary, and according to tradition we made gifts for each other out of that secret ingredient. As Leah pointed out, cloth is not exactly my strong point gift-creation-wise, but I acquitted myself reasonably well with a heart-shaped cuddle pillow featuring an ascii heart (thusly: <3). Of course, it couldn't come close to competing with the pornographic scarf she embroidered and quilted for me, but she appreciates the effort. I hope!
We also went to the pond for a swim. Cause we're romantic that way. Here's to the next three years!

Ithaca is Gorges nationally renowned
Ever since the end of the Homestar Runner fad when I put aside my Pompom t-shirt, my most commented upon garment has been the iconic green "Ithaca is Gorges" t-shirt. Former residents of that fine town, as well as past attendees of its fine colleges and universities, are not at all shy about mentioning their love of the place to someone whose clothing suggests they might appreciate hearing it, or at least have some idea of what the speaker is talking about. It's pretty cool, being part of the Ithaca-in crowd. Most of the time, anyways; sometimes the former residents' lack of shyness is manifested with an enthusiasm and lack of social awareness that is a little embarrassing in a public place. But that's alright, at least we know that even the crazy people are good liberals!

we now return you to our regularly scheduled fall programming
We may have thrown off the experimentally added comforter in the middle of the night due to unbearable warmth, but the position of the sun suggests that fall is here. Sunset at 7:30, fine, but having it this dark when I get up is something I'm not used to! Did this happen last year? It must mean it's time to go back to school, and I'm sure glad I have somewhere to go. First grade here I come!!

come labor on
We celebrated Labor Day by laboring to clean the kitchen and the fridge. Unfortunately, the order in which we did those two tasks means that the kitchen is at this moment not clean at all, as well as rather malodorous. But the fridge is remarkably empty!

why don't you love me part deux
According to popular reports, David Duchovney is apparently a real-life sex addict. Either this is true, (in which case, that sucks?) or it's a publicity stunt to promote his show Californication on which he does in fact play a sex addict.
If it IS true, though, do you know what that means? DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS????? It means he would have had sex with me!!!
As that past post poorly explains, I met "David" when I was working in LA, and practically tripped over myself with smitten-ness. I can say this now that I'm married and safely only having sex with one person ever for the rest of my life... OMG I would have totally hit that. That dude was sexy.
