Update on our plans


Last we checked:

- John will be studying for a doctorate in theology at the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC

- Lauren will be studying for her masters in library science at the University of Maryland at College park (not at Florida State, as originally planned)

- We will be living in Silver Spring, Maryland.

After a hectic weekend of apartment hunting, we picked the second place we looked at :P

Cast of Characters


Matron Joanna- coming soon!

Bridesmaid Bria

Bridesmaid Val- coming soon!

Bridesmaid Cindy

Bridesmaid Cindy


Brilliant, witty, and rarely afraid to tell it like it is, Cindy also has a rare insight into people’s characters and therefore a great gift for dealing with neurotic people like me in times of crises (for that matter, everyone on this list is very good at dealing with me in times of stress…which makes them all uniquely qualified for the position of my bridesmaid). From awkward proms to antisocial sororities to late nights wasting valuable study time watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer, she’s been there for rougher or for smoother. But if she shows you any incriminating video footage of me…it’s all fake! She spliced it all together! And that person dancing to “Devil went down to Georgia…it’s her, with my face blue-screened in! She’s taking the time out of law school and an already promising law career that leaves her barely the time to blog to help me prepare for all this.

Bridesmaid Bria


My main source of non- dining hall food during my sophomore year at UGA, we became friends when she started IMing me about studying together for an English class we were both in. Little did I know that that innocent first encounter with the mysterious words on the computer screen that I had met someone else so magically like and unlike myself, as well as someone passionate, compassionate, and loyal enough, to be an awesome friend, as well as an amazing support for times of relational and academic stress! She is finishing a doctorate in anthropology at Rutgers and can tell you lots and lots about engagement rings and various mating rituals.
