Kate's Perspective


Thursday, September 26, 2002
We just received this week's edition of Main Line Life, which includes the long-awaited Bridal Guide 2002. If only I had had this in advance of my nuptials last month! Now I will have to spend the rest of my life wishing I had visited the dentist days before my wedding for a pre-photo cleaning and bleaching. Ugh.

Alongside this kind of frou-frou advice is an article entitled Yoga honeymoon helps newlyweds connect. It includes listings of special yoga resort spas with special instructors and a special diet to help you learn any kind of yoga: basic relaxation yoga or highly charged tantric yoga. The article encourages newlyweds to forget a gluttonous Caribbean vacation and take a yoga honeymoon.

Well, now I'm extra embarrassed that John include yoga in the list of honeymoon-activities he posted on his blog. We ARE Yuppies!

I have been warming up slowly after a really wonderful vacation during which I got married and went on a fantastic honeymoon. I have lots of things to write about, but NO TIME! Work has not been slow to return to breakneck speed, so each I night I go home exhausted and, after writing the requisite 5 thank you notes, collapse gratefully into bed.

I received the following suggestions for future Blog postings (can you guess who made the suggestions?):

  • I change my name: hijinx and hilarity ensue!!!
  • My craaaaazy mother!!! Let me tell you what she did now!
  • Tips for writing thank-you notes!
  • My cat is the best cat in the world!
  • My husband is the best husband in the world!
  • I choose cars by their asses; here's why!
  • How to get the Edgar Cayce foundation to fund your project!
  • Tales from a Bar Cart!
  • Jerry: A Portrait in Prose

Check back soon to see if any of these become feature length stories.... don't worry, I know that "My cat is the best cat in the world" is unlikely to spark great interest among the reading public.
