One day at a time

Long time, no write (does that even make sense...meh, screw it)

So it's been a while since I made the time to type a little something out to the folks in cyberspace. So here goes:

The Big 27
So, I'm 27 now folks... "so what", you say? Well, it's weird, but I fully but a ton of pressure on my 27th birthday; it was one of those milestone years. What were my plans? Working: Check, Married: Almost Check, Kids: None that I know of, almost everything is perfect. So I'm super happy -- thanks everyone!

Coffee
I continue to prod along roasting and drinking tiny batches of coffee...and I think that I just may be getting the hang of it. I've been talking to other amateur roasters, I've been looking into new and exciting roasting and brewing techniques, and I've been pouring over literature on the subject. I'm currently trying to locate a reliable source of green coffee, so I'll add something soon to give you more background.

Moral: Hobby's are completely unique...and a hobby about something that you drink that isn't booze is weird to most people

Food Crisis
It turns out that I'm basically sick of processed food...which is pretty terrifying actually. I mean, how do I find meat that isn't factory-farmed, corn-fed, brutalized, etc; how do I find veggies that are pesticide free, herbicide free, and not Genetically Modified?
Farmers markets help....but do they really? Maybe....
In any case, I'll keep you up to date on the process.

Moral: Eating "right" means a lot more than following the diet-du-jour, it means research, time and effort to do this RIGHT!

Wedding Planning
So as most of you should be aware, Andria and I are currently planning a wedding. Everything is on track, mostly due to Andria. But I thought that it might be fun to tell you one pretty funny issue that's been facing us. Now I would consider Andria and I to be somewhat intelligent, so you can imagine our confusion when we have noticed that most of our wedding providers have numerous spelling and grammar errors throughout their documentation. Are we just being really sticky or should people follow basic English rules if they are looking to have our business. I mean, nothing is worse than reading something and getting stuck on a "than" which should be a "then" or words like "ceramony" or "piiano". I feel like it is very difficult to get past.

Moral: Learn to friggen spell if you want my business
