So… because this is the way we roll.. Laurie and I are going to go take some more wedding photos tomorrow. Yeah it’ll be three months since we were married on Saturday but we thought it would be fun to get our tux and dress on again and go take some more cool photos. The downside is… it’s supposed to rain tomorrow. DOH.
We were debating on going back to Las Colinas (see our engagement photos) or going to downtown Dallas somewhere to take pics.
We might do both – but we’d love to hear some suggestions for cool locations from you guys.
Send us your ideas – hurry! quick! jump on it!

Here’s one for reading later
eHow has some pointers and videos on how to give good back massages.
I’ll need to read up on that one for sure.
Thanks to Lifehacker for the heads up.
According to eHow: The many benefits of massage include relaxation, stress management, postural balance, increased body awareness and emotional comfort, improved circulation, and improved lymphatic drainage for release of toxins.
Gas down, Starbucks up
According to ABC News last night, the average price of gasoline has dropped 9-cents across the country over the last week.
But don’t get too excited, the price of Starbucks Coffee is going up 9-cents.
That’s a $32.85 increase over last year for a daily caffeine pick me up.
Folgers is sounding better and better.
Free slurpees?!
WOW oo00oo
FREE SLURPEES TODAY!?
Wouldn’t have known except for a DIY blog post.
Alright kids, it’s time to go get your favorite cool-tasty beverage from 7-Eleven. That’s right, Slurpees are FREE today. Why, you ask? Because it’s 7/11 of course! The Slurpees are small, at just 7.11 ounces, but whose complaining – it’s free, right? Start at the north end of town and hit every 7-Eleven within a 20 mile radius. But get down there quick, because the deal ends at 11pm (of course).
Get a hobby
Looking to find more energy in your day, Lifehacker suggests getting a hobby.
All work and no play do indeed make Jack and Jill a wee bit dull – and it also has quite an effect on your energy level. If you carve some time out of your life for something you look forward to, whether that be swimming, quilting, volunteering, etc., you’ll find that you have something to look forward to when the drudgery gets you down.
Lifehacker points to a post by Life is a Journal, which highlights five reasons why hobbies help give you more energy.
I know for a fact that the day seems to go by faster and I don’t get down as much when I know I’m planning to go geocaching or work on a new video for church.
