We finally addressed a bunch of envelopes for our “Save The Date” cards… now we just need to put the cards in the envelopes, slap on a stamp, and mail them out. Expect that to happen any day now… 
In other news, Leanne has been doing a great job wrapping all of the Christmas presents we have for people. I’ve been ensuring that indented spot on the couch continues to stay nice and warm, all while keeping the TV company.
Two things led me to stumble upon the band The LeeVees. The first being that I’m a huge Guster fan. The second being that I’m a huge Hartford Whalers fan.
The first connection is fairly easy to make. Adam Gardner from Guster started The LeeVees with Dave Schneider from The Zambonis. Ok, so where’s the second connection, you ask? As it turns out, The Zambonis are a band that only sing songs about hockey… and one member of their band is just about always in a Hartford Whalers jersey. So it’s a bit of a long connection, but all three bands deserve a looksie… so why not get The LeeVees on CD or from iTunes today!
Speaking of holiday music, I found a great list of the Bestest Christmas Songs Evah, courtesy of callista’s blog.
I just stumbled upon a sad story… John Spencer, who played Leo McGarry on ‘The West Wing’, died today at the age of 58 (he would have been 59 next week). Aparently he had a heart attack, which is an evil parallel to last season’s story line where he suffered a heart attack while serving as the President’s Chief of Staff.
He was a great actor and one of the best remaining on ‘The West Wing’ cast. It will be interesting to see how the show handles the premature departure of Leo. More information can be found on CNN.com.
I’ll make an exception. I usually hate posting those annoying “What video game character are you?” types of quizzes to my blog, but I stumbled upon this one today and thought what the heck… It simply tells you what your birthday means. Simple and affordable. Oh, by the way… feel free to send me some presents in a few weeks.

You have a Type A personality so big it makes other Type A’s shrink away in shame.
You never shy away from adversity – and you love to tackle impossible problems. Failure is not an option for you, and more than a few people are put off by your ego. You tend to be controlling, and you hate leaving anything up to chance. Your strength: Your bold approach to life |
We’ve got a date, a location, a menu… now we just need a photographer, DJ, cake…..
