Record low temperatures in Hell reported

Friday, September 8th, 2006

I’ve mentioned to a couple people recently that I’ve got a lot going on right now, but haven’t elaborated much. I didn’t mean to be secretive; I just didn’t yet know enough details to start talking. But now the plans are beginning to finalize and we’ve made the first rounds of announcements to our families: After five years together, and living together for three and a half, Sarai and I have decided to get married.

Yes, you read that correctly.

The date we’ve chosen is September 14, 2007. Although we picked this date pretty much at random, it turns out this is also Sarai’s grandparents’ anniversary, which is kind of neat. We didn’t realize this until we told her grandmother last weekend. The ceremony and reception will be in Berkeley, at the Brazilian Room at Tilden Park. It will be pretty informal and definitely non-traditional. We’re not doing anything weird, but we’re not real concerned with the way weddings are usually done.

We gave ourselves about a year to plan things because we’re going to be doing most of the preparation ourselves. Invitations won’t go out until a couple months before and we’ve only just begun making a guest list, but most of our friends can probably assume they’re invited.
