One more step.
Today David and I are going to get our marriage license. That is pretty exciting. Then we're going for a drink with Zeebah and we'll probably bore her to death with wedding talk, because that is all that is going on. UNLESS she wants to talk about refinishing the kitchen - we can do that too! Or working in the backyard!
Also I have become obsessive about checking the Accuweather.com 15-day forecast every morning. I know I cannot expect it to be accurate but at least I can prepare myself should it even appear that rain looms in our future.
I've spent my time this morning reading A Visitor's Guide to the Baghdad Green Zone. It sounds like it was once a really interesting and beautiful place. I have no plans to go anytime soon, though I am seriously itching to go to Afghanistan. If I could figure out a way to go without my family killing me first than I probably would. Perhaps we should change our honeymoon plans? I'm sure there is nothing quite like making love with the dulcet tones of machine gun fire in the background!
one of my very best friends has been living in kabul for the last year and a half. he is a very good tour guide and most excellent drinking partner if you do decide to change your honeymoon plans ;)

kat! that's totally insane! after watching that danged kite movie i totally wanted to adopt a zillion afghani kids, but i doubt that will work out. but have also heard it, and bosnia, are wildly gorgeous places. except for the rubble, and the corpses.
