Okie(s) in Florida

Or that’s what Allison said.

And she’s right. I’ve fallen down on the job.

We’ve been pretty busy lately, both at work and at home. We spent most of yesterday writing the much-belated thank you notes for the wedding gifts. That took several hours. But I think it will be obvious to most of you whether the note is from me or Kathryn.

Being the journalist who likes to keep things short and sweet (not to mention my typical guy behavior), I typically wrote things like, “Hello. Thank you for X and X. It was a wonderful gift. We’ve put it to use X. Thank you for everything. Sincerely, Ryan and Kathryn.”

My handwriting sucks. It has always sucked. In fact, I used to get a “U” for “unsatisfactory” in writing back in the day at Roy Clark Elementary School in Tulsa. Represent!  

Kathryn, on the other hand, wrote long, flowing adjective-filled notes. Hers are better than mine.

Anyways, we have lots of pictures I need to post. And yes, Allison has scolded me for this as well. We took a snorkling trip a couple weeks back and went out with some coworkers on Friday.

This weekend is a shuttle launch.

I’ll write more later.
