Amy and I + had a really great time yesterday at Two Left Feet Dance Studio, + learning more about how to dance the Carolina Shag in preparation for + our wedding (which is in less than 20 days)! An enormous swing band is + going to play all of our favorites from the brass band/swing era, and + one of the easiest dances to do to that music is the Shag. I wrote a + paper on the Shag a few years ago for school but never actually learned + how to do it. The steps are simple for us to remember and it's easy + enough to add flair or mix it up so we look like we know what we're + doing during our first dance. + </p> + + <p> + We also got out to see the new Lion King remake and I can honestly say + it was worth it. If anyone's a Lion King purist, it's Amy. It's easily + been her favorite movie since she was a toddler, and to see it + tastefully redone almost 25 years after it was first released was + thoroughly enjoyable. There were minor alterations to literal sentences + in the script that all added some context to things that were always + kind of assumed in the original (clarification on Scar's backstory, + etc.). I did however feel like they were trying to throw Beyonce lines + the way a middle-schooler tries to turn a 500-word paper into a 700-word + paper. Regardless, it's definitely re-living the classic, not re-hashing + it. + </p> + </article> + </body> +</html> diff --git a/posts/life/2019-07-28-i-finally-found-a-drink-i-like.html b/posts/life/2019-07-28-i-finally-found-a-drink-i-like.html new file mode 100644 index 0000000..447c454 --- /dev/null +++ b/posts/life/2019-07-28-i-finally-found-a-drink-i-like.html @@ -0,0 +1,92 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html> +<html> + <head> + <link rel="stylesheet" href="/includes/stylesheet.css" /> + <meta charset="utf-8" /> + <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" /> + <meta + property="og:description" + content="The World Wide Web pages of Adam Carpenter" + /> + <meta property="og:image" content="/includes/images/logo_diag.png" /> + <meta property="og:site_name" content="53hor.net" /> + <meta property="og:title" content="Finally Found a Drink I Like" /> + <meta property="og:type" content="website" /> + <meta property="og:url" content="https://www.53hor.net" /> + <title>53hornet ➙ Finally Found a Drink I Like</title> + </head> + + <body> + <nav> + <ul> + <li> + <a href="/"> + <img src="/includes/icons/home-roof.svg" /> + Home + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/about.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/information-variant.svg" /> + About + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/software.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/git.svg" /> + Software + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/hosted.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/desktop-tower.svg" /> + Hosted + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a type="application/rss+xml" href="/rss.xml"> + <img src="/includes/icons/rss.svg" /> + RSS + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/contact.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/at.svg" /> + Contact + </a> + </li> + </ul> + </nav> + + <article> + <h1>Finally Found a Drink I Like</h1> + <p> + Anyone who knows me even slightly well probably knows that I don't + drink.

All three of us: Amy, Clementine, and myself. We're doing + what we do best and that is being hermits with zero social contact. + That's pretty okay by us though because it lets us slow down from all + the fast-paced life changes we've made in the past few months. + </p> + + <p> + In January Amy and I bought a house! We couldn't have done it without + the wonderful help of everyone who gave us wedding gifts. We got a nice + little standalone place in Suffolk, much closer to where I work and + centrally located for Amy's tutoring business. We spent all of January + painting and prepping for the big move. Late January and early February + were all moving and unpacking and trying to get back in the groove. + Since the outbreak, we've been using the extra time at home to finish up + all the move-in projects we wanted to: finishing painting, putting up + shelves, hanging pictures, and rewiring electrical outlets. + </p> + + <p> + Amy also finally got the chance to pursue her dream job: she started up + her own private tutoring business. She's been working hard with clients + all over Hampton Roads, from college students all the way to + first-graders. Business was booming before schools closed but I know + she'll bring it back once things have returned to normal again. No + worries though, she's spending this time helping William and Mary handle + remote operations and students in need. She's also [supposed to be] + writing her master's thesis so she can graduate in May but you know how + it is. + </p> + + <p> + We're also working through a family illness, which adds difficulty . We + expect a speedy recovery though and we're really excited for that. + All-in-all, we're really enjoying our lives as a happily married couple. + It's been about eight months now and I've enjoyed every minute of it: + the glad, the slightly stressed, and the overarching worry as the world + took a strange turn. But we're looking forward to a good Summer now. The + weather has turned nice -- really nice -- and Clementine is forcing us + to get outside. She's in love with her nice, big fenced-in yard and + refuses to come in after catching hoops most of the time. + </p> + + <p>Stay safe, smart, and sane!</p> + </article> + </body> +</html> diff --git a/posts/life/2020-04-10-wedding-photos-are-here.html b/posts/life/2020-04-10-wedding-photos-are-here.html new file mode 100644 index 0000000..01fc955 --- /dev/null +++ b/posts/life/2020-04-10-wedding-photos-are-here.html @@ -0,0 +1,102 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html> +<html> + <head> + <link rel="stylesheet" href="/includes/stylesheet.css" /> + <meta charset="utf-8" /> + <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" /> + <meta + property="og:description" + content="The World Wide Web pages of Adam Carpenter" + /> + <meta property="og:image" content="/includes/images/logo_diag.png" /> + <meta property="og:site_name" content="53hor.net" /> + <meta property="og:title" content="Wedding Photo Debacle" /> + <meta property="og:type" content="website" /> + <meta property="og:url" content="https://www.53hor.net" /> + <title>53hornet ➙ Wedding Photo Debacle</title> + </head> + + <body> + <nav> + <ul> + <li> + <a href="/"> + <img src="/includes/icons/home-roof.svg" /> + Home + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/about.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/information-variant.svg" /> + About + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/software.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/git.svg" /> + Software + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/hosted.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/desktop-tower.svg" /> + Hosted + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a type="application/rss+xml" href="/rss.xml"> + <img src="/includes/icons/rss.svg" /> + RSS + </a> + </li> + <li> + <a href="/contact.html"> + <img src="/includes/icons/at.svg" /> + Contact + </a> + </li> + </ul> + </nav> + + <article> + <h1>Wedding Photo Debacle</h1> + + <p> + At long last we have all of our wedding photos together!
