Yes, Christopher Walken, I will Marry You

Last night Jon and I were watching Superman II (Charlie, our new family member, was sleeping under the rocking chair).

No, Christopher Walken is not in that movie (and more's the pity), but the actor who plays Zod (a.k.a. "the bady guy") bares a slight resemblance, and I mentioned to Jon during the movie that Walken would have been a much better Zod.

Jon then starts quoting Zod's lines from the movies, a la Christopher Walken. I had no idea he did a Walken impersonation, and it made me laugh so hard.

Jon endlessly surprises me with little tricks like that. I absolutely love it.

I also love that he cleans the litter box.

Wedding Planning ... on and on and on

Jon and I have taken a bit of break for wedding planning. I know we really need to find an officiant and a DJ (what's more important: getting the right person to perform the ceremony, or finding the right person to trust with music selection? Truly a tough call), but I really don't feel like dealing with it!

Sure, Jon and I got a lot accomplished quickly - but that's because those decisions were all so easy! They just fell into place. I know nothing of DJs or wedding officiants, hence more work and hence my reluctance.

I do have a clear idea of what I want for center pieces (not ready to reveal that yet) and I am almost finished creating our custom guest book on Shutterfly (thanks again, Rebes, for the idea!). Oh, and I did reserve all six rooms at the Taylor House B&B in Jamaica Plain. At $160/night they are far more affordable than any other place within a five mile radius of downtown Boston.
