Busy, Busy, and Baseball

Kim and I have been burning the candle at both ends for some time now. She's busy with working full time and taking five classes this semester and I'm working full time, teaching a new course, coaching middle school football, and...I don't know, cheering on the Red Sox. To that end, I'm very pleased to announce that I joined an association I'd not heard of until today: Meetup.com. It's an online community that, in this particular case, follows the Boston Red Sox and sets up "networking" for fans. This season, there have been something like a dozen opportunities for Sox fans to get together to watch a game. Attendance seems to range from 15-40 Sox fans. I don't know if these meetings take place in bars, people's homes (which would be weird), or in underground clubs, but I'm looking forward to finding out and will keep you posted.
Prior to that most recent development, however, Kim and I attended a wedding in Maine. This past weekend, we drove up to Poland, ME, and attended the wedding of Kim's friend, Becca, to her fiance, Chris. The event, including everything from rehearsal through reception, was great. We had fun, got to spend time with friends, enjoyed good food, and the scenery was indescribable (but I hope you enjoy the pictures). It was a real chore to do all that driving, what with Kim and I both having so much school work to do (for my teaching and her studying), but it was a nice get away from the City. Another nice thing about it, not to be callous, is that Kim and I can now look for a niche in our schedules because we don't have any other extracurricular affairs until Thanksgiving.
Well, that's it for now, but enjoy the pics and the video. The pics include my "member" photo and profile page for Meetup.com, wedding pics, and a Borat video whereby he examines America's favorite past time. Although I'm not sure he completely understands the game (he says it's like a sport from Kazakhstan where "...we take dogs, shoot them in a field, and then have a party..."), the video is quite funny, nonetheless.
Anyways, enjoy.
