Diary: May 2011-November 2011

Whoops. I let myself get way behind again. To sum up:

May: We went to a Bruins playoff game, and took a weekend trip to Hartford. We hosted "Game of Thrones" viewing parties, and saw Justin Vivian Bond perform. On a sadder note, Grayskale and I both suffered deaths in the family: my grandfather and Grayskale's uncle.

June: The Bruins won the Stanley cup, and I spent my birthday at the rally welcoming the cup to Boston. Grayskale and I tried vacationing outside of Vegas and discovered it wasn't bad at all. I got a sunburn, but that was the worst of it.

July: I saw a deliciously geeky musical: "2010: Our Hideous Future". I spent a lot of time watching a rabbit in our back yard.

August: Grayskale started a new job, and took a week off between. I took a day off to go to Canobie Lake Park with him during his break. I held a Play in Public game night at Cambridge Brewing Company. Hurricane Irene knocked a chimney into our bedroom window. Another death: Grayskale's grandmother passed away.

September: We took another long-weekend vacation and had a lovely time despite chilly, rainy weather. We signed up for our annual fantasy football and hockey leagues. After nine years as a couple, Grayskale and I also started using a joint credit card. Sadly, we also ended up removing Wednesday game nights from our regular weekly social schedule.

October: We went to a hockey game, and I held a pumpkin-beer tasting on Halloween, which was lovely. I worked a lot.

November, so far: We're in the process of refinancing the mortgage. We voted. I had jury duty, but didn't get impaneled. I've had a cold for the past week, which forced me to sit still long enough to realize I was 6 months behind updating. ;)

How've you been?
