Well, a little less than three months to go and we are feeling like we really should get on with planning the wedding. I won't reproduce the stuff we've written on The Big Event here, but things have been put on the back burner for too long and now we are getting a little anxious! We don't want much, thank goodness, but we need to get cracking.
Michael and I were at the BCLA annual luncheon yesterday. Strange lunch actually--I had ordered the Grilled Chicken with Tomato-Lime Salsa, and I didn't really expect that it would come to the table swimming in a plate of mushroom gravy. An...interesting flavour combination, and one I don't think I would repeat given the chance. Michael was elected the new BCLA Historian--this was his second time running, first time successfull--and I finally got to launch the new BCLA Website! It's still pretty simple in design, but I'm rather proud of it. The banner graphic is the first that I've ever created, and I put a quite a lot of work into the Photo Gallery as well. Though if I'd realized beforehand what a chore it would be to create all the thumbnails and post all the photos I might not have started it!
Tonight, we are going to a show that my dance teacher, Myriam Eli, and some of my fellow students are involved in, Encuentro, with Ballet Flamenco de la Rosa. The show will combine bellydance and flamenco as it tells the story of a Middle Eastern woman who marries a Spanish man. All the dancers I know in the show are very good so we're really looking forward to it.
We're also gearing up for a couple of vacations. We are going to go to Everglades National Park next weekend, as a kind of early-engagement-anniversary trip, and stay in Flamingo Lodge. Also, my mom was finally able to reschedule her trip down, so she will be coming in early June. Hopefully the comparatively mild weather we've been enjoying so far this season will continue and we won't be too hot and sticky!
