Lisa and Lam

so the wifey is on an 11-day road tour with her company (www.hydrogenroadtour.com). it's been awfully boring around the apartment with her being away. we'll meet up tomorrow when the caravan stops in west sacramento. just a little over 26 hours to go... sigh.

wow. it's been forever. anyway, lisa and i bought a house. that's right, the domestication of lisa and lam continues. the house is being built right now. you can check out the development weekly at:

These past couple of weeks have been hard on me mentally. I have done a lot of unsolicited self reflection. My new role as a wife has thrown me for a loop. I know Lam would say that things should not have to change, but for some reason I feel like I should be the best wife possible. I am having a hard time defining what that means for me.

Work has also been particularly hard for me these two weeks. I have been working 6 day and most recently a full 7 day work week. It is draining. Really what I want to be doing is spending time at home - a new trend since being married. I find myself leaving events early or really really wanting to leave so that I can be home. This evening I am working until 9:00pm. It is dreadful.

Tomorrow we are picking up our puppy, Penny. I am sad that I will not be around much this weekend to play with her, but I am also very excited that she is going to be a part of our family. I will post pictures and video once she comes home. :)
