Day 10 - I'm so proud

So this picture is in celebration of Washington's newly voted in bill providing marriage equality!  I thought it was super exciting, but unfortunately did not really get to hear the proceedings.  However it is good to know that my prime nomination for living has gotten on board with the whole equality thing...now if only Wyoming would actually start living up to it's nickname (and I don't count the women being able to vote thing...it was just a ploy by the original legislature to get enough votes to make the area a state).

Instead of sitting at home listening to the proceedings, I took Katie out to dinner at a local restaurant, Sweet Melissa's, and bought both of us dinner.  It was just as good as I remembered.  It is our favorite place in town (where we had our first date), and we used to go there all the time.  However, the last few months we have felt a little more strapped for cash, so we haven't been there anywhere near as much as we would like.  Afterwards we went to the store to get somethings, and happened through the baby section.  This is a particularly cruel kind of torture for Katie, since she really wants kids, and sooner rather than later, but she knows that we have to wait.  I was pretty impressed because the only thing she actually asked to buy was a combination furniture thing that has a crib that converts to a bed and a changing table that converts to a small dresser.  The two pieces were only $200, and were quite nice (and would last one child until they were about 18, unless they inherited my destructive genes).  Needless to say we did not actually buy the set, but it was tempting.  Someday, but not yet - but it is nice to know there are nice things out there for decent prices.

Otherwise, I am now roughly half-way through my week, and feel like I have a lot of work to do this weekend to be all caught up for next week.  Anyway, it is definitely bed time.

Till tomorrow!
