Wedding Bells

We are off tonight to a friend's wedding. i am quite excited, it'll be the first one I have been to in a long time. It's also the first time i'll be part of the wedding party. I am excited about that too.

The wedding present has been arranged, the tux i go pick up tomorrow. It seems as if everything is arranged. It's probably been about a decade since I have been to a wedding. I guess it's getting to that point in life that I should be attending several over the next few years.

I hope that no one I know ever gets divorced, it seems like such an expensive proposition, not only in money, but in terms of the difficulties this puts on both parties, especially if children are involved. I think that our generation will hopefully be able to reduce the level of divorce. One of the reasons is that a lot of kids are from divorced families and won't want to put their own children through that. The other thing is that people are waiting longer to get married, which I would guess means they are putting more thought into the whole thing.

I hold the view that marriage really is about partnership, and my dad always said he didn't think he could raise a family or live his life fully without a partner. Here's hoping that we can all see the wisdom in that statement

Getting into a new routine

So far so good, i'm enjoying the new apartment and now that everything is all set up, i've been enjoying it even more.

I didn't realize how much i missed playoff hockey last year. Like most people, I guess I just sort of did without it. It's so exciting though, especially now that Ottawa is playing well.

Now the only thing left i have to go and pick up is my bike. I hope to ride a lot this summer, it'll keep me in better shape and I really enjoy the biking in Ottawa. I hope to explore more of the trails this year. I didn't do nearly enough of it last summer, so hopefully I can catch up on it this year.

I guess thats all I really have to say for now. I should update one more time before I leave for a friend's wedding tomorrow night.

A quick update

Well we are in the new apartment. We moved in on saturday and all went well. No major problems yet. A few leftovers still to pick up from Jen's place and then we're all done moving.

I don't particularly like moving, but then again who does.

I slept on an air mattress for the past week, so having the bed set up is nice.

I am not too sure what i'll be up to for the next little while. Now that our internet is set up, i guess i have to start the job hunt.
