On Hiatus.

Much like your favorite sitcom, An Awfully Big Adventure is embarking on a summer hiatus. This one won't last the whole summer, of course. More like a week--ten days, tops. Tomorrow N.O. and I close on our new house in Wackytown (please pray for us--we've never done this before!) and then I'll be taking the week off to visit with my family and begin moving some of our stuff to the new place. Then it's back to Everycity for a couple of weeks before making the final move back to the old stomping grounds.

And then, I'll be blogging from a whole new perspective, not only as a first-time homeowner, but also a landlord! (Our new place is a triplex--we will live in one unit and rent out the other two, so we will have four tenants!) And, in the fall, of course, we both begin grad school. Things are about to get pretty interesting around here! (I hope so, anyway. This has been a blog about nothing for way too long.)

So, anyway, see ya in about a week.

In the meantime, some washed-up has-been wishes you a helluva weekend, I wish this great country a happy 230th birthday, and, just for the heck of it, here's an adorable picture of a kitten with a bow on its head:
