I know. Apparently, I'm the only person in the ENTIRE INTERNET to want to switch FROM Wordpress TO Blogger. Apparently, I'm a big weirdo. We already knew that, though. I guess Wordpress is supposed to be soooo amazing, and Blogger ... http://lucythevaliant.wordpress.com/2009/01/01/new-year-new-blog/ In honor of our two-year anniversary, here is the story of How We Met.

With one exception, we accomplished that. Which is impressive when you consider how long we were sidetracked by a going-out-of business sale at Steve and Barry's, ... http://lucythevaliant.wordpress.com/2008/12/20/a-selfish-post/ Re: comments Kanga is my fantabulous mother-in-law, Scout is my four year old little sister.

My darling love, that's who.  He was going to try and get someone ... http://lucythevaliant.wordpress.com/2008/12/18/ice/ This is gonna be short and sweet. Because... yeah. Our dwelling place has been cursed with a Moste Fearful Illness, and I have a lot of icky messes to clean up now.   Joey does not do sick well. I do not do sympathetic well. We discovered this on our honeymoon, the ... http://lucythevaliant.wordpress.com/2008/12/08/different-strokes/ "And so the overly dramatic pregnant girl felt pretty sorry for herself.  But then she got her hands on Breaking Dawn, finally.
