RSVP trends

Beef is getting picked over chicken, the ratio right now is 2:1. The comment most often written on the RSVP card (when there is one) is Rare (for the beef).

Interesting stuff.

B is a landlord

While B did not sell his condo, he did get renters in there for a good price considering the timing (September 1 is the date of most leases so it is harder to get tenants after that date). So he is now a landlord. I hope he does not become a slum lord.

RSVP

B and I guessed who would be the first to get the RSVP in and we both picked the same person. Well, said person's RSVP arrived today. Yay!!!

I also added a new widget to the blog near the countdown - RSVP counter. So for anyone interested, you can see the progress of my mail. If you are not interested, then just don't scroll down.

They are hitting mailboxes!

I have received word that certain people in Mass (Keith/Jen) and NYC (Erica) have invites in hand.

I hope they have all the parts. Erica can most likely figure it out but Keith is a crapshot.

B's new job as a pundit

B came up with this tidbit all by himself (it is a dig at Sarah Palin so if you are sympathetic, do not read further or if, you know, you don't have a heart. Hi Hillary - glad you have one). He may be brilliant. I said MAY.

1.5 million US troops have served in Iraq.

As of 2006 Alaska's estimated population was 670,000 or to phrase it another way - if Sarah Palin sent every man, woman and child she has ever governed to Iraq she would still need to find 870,000 people to make up the difference.

Trying to convince B...

that I should be a stay at home wife.

My last day at work was yesterday-actually I left at one to go to the Red Sox game. But I did get a note of "thaks" from my boss.

Today I have successfully let the cable guy in, plugged in our phone, did two loads of laundry, ran 4.5 miles, took chicken out of the freezer which I will cook and made the bed. I could that all the time.

They are out!

I just dropped off the invites at the post office. Rather I put them in the box outside the post office because I wanted them out of my house. I just hope that all the envelopes have all the pieces they should. I am confident that they have the invite and the RSVP card so it can't be too bad.

B and I have rsvp'ed yes and we put it in the spreadsheet. We wonder whose RSVP will be the first we receive. I figure it has to be someone from Mass just because of the short amount of time to mail.

Also Ann called to tell me she received the invites and all is well.

I have a picture of them but I couldn't download it but hopefully I can fix that tonight.
