Registry!

Currently Reading: Nothing until I finish my revisions.

Currently Watching: The Simpsons

R. and I went to Macys and started our registry the day before yesterday. It was so much fun! We chose a Waterford set of china.

The best part about the set is the accent plate, which you can't see in this photo... Since I love Cincinnati history I was thrilled when R. sent me a link to the following photo.

It's Cincinnati in the mid 19th century, which is the setting for my second novel! It's crazy to see how industrial, and muddy the city looked. I've done extensive research on the Underground Railroad in the Ohio Valley, but I guess I need to look into the general history a little bit more. But that can start once I finish the revisions. I'm seriously not going to start another book until I finish. It's amazing how much time reading can suck up.

Well, after a good 3 weeks of without posting I've got an awful lot to say! R. and I chose a date for the wedding (October 24th, 2009), and we chose the reception venue. It's called French House and it's in the middle of French Park in Amberley Village. Here are a few pictures of it:

It's just as beautiful as it looks! We loved it as soon as we saw it. It has really great grounds surrounding it, and you rent the entire house, including the upper floor.

I'm 208 pages into my revisions! I'm so close to being finished! I feel like I've been saying that for a really long time but I sincerely am.

The real reason I haven't been posting is that I'm up for a promotion at work and I'm putting in all the hours I can. If I get the job it will be a very nice pay increase. And with the wedding that's quite an incentive! I had to tell BuyCincy.com that I could only contribute monthly from now on. I'm going to write a wedding journal, which I think sounds pretty fun.

If you ever get the chance you should read any and all Eva Ibbotsen books. Trust me, they're awesome.

If I get a chance I'll post more this evening. Peace!
