thus a few more blog-less days at The Sylvestieu Times.
More details upon our return, but wanted to check in before we check out.
At the moment my excitement of our upcoming trip is a little overshadowed by the fatigue of packing, but I AM quite... excited about it. (Even though, with the help of the Thesaurus, I couldn't find a suitable adjective for "excited". And I just don't have the energy to think it up. I do like "aflame" though. Anyway.) This is a trip we booked 2 days before we learned of being pregnant. It was one of those "Gotta do it while we can" kind of things.
The reason for the trip? Okay, the subtitle of this blog:
"NERD ALERT!" (read with English accent a la Austin Powers).......
We're going to see a live broadcast of A Prarie Home Companion at the Fitzgerald Theater in St.Paul. I won't go into my reasons for loving this weekly radio show at this time, but suffice it to say I love it enough to fly to Minnesota for a long weekend to see it, thus crossing off an entry from my "life list" as put by a co-worker friend of mine. And somewhere along the line, Nate became enough of a fan to humor me in this endeavor.
Tune in if you can, as they read greetings from listeners, and we've sent one hoping it will be read on air! In Maine it's on LIVE at 6pm Saturday night, and re-broadcast at noon on Sunday.

Okay, are you asleep yet??
Tune in for all the “exciting” stories we get from this trip, as well as maybe, just maybe, some updated pictures of us…

2 weeks 2 days until 12 weeks
or, “about a quarter of the way through this thing” as a co-worker of Nate’s pointed out recently. To which Nate said, “That’s a freaky way to think of it”
