Lisa and Michael » love

Welcome

lisa — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 02:46:52 +0000

to the age of 42 Mr. Zanussi! I hope you enjoy it as much as I have these past two months. So far it seems to be a pretty exciting age. I have discovered a few more grey hairs but I feel pretty fit since we have started going to the gym and now that we are working on the home improvements again we will both continue to be even more fit. Congratulations Michael on turning 42 first thing in the morning. You don’t look your age at all and I love you!!

Happy New Year!

Here’s hoping that 2010 is just as amazing as 2009 was Lisa!

I love you so much!

Happy Birthday

I hope you have a wonderful birthday today, sunshine. I love you!

In shock!

Yes, I’m still in shock! I can’t believe we went from coast to coast in two weeks. What a great time. I think Michael should plan all of the vacations from now on. He did awesome and he can keep a secret really good. We are almost done with Christmas shopping, planning our Auntie Robin Thanksgiving and also planning a wedding right now, so we really needed that vacation. Thanks so much Hubby! You did an awesome job–can’t wait till next year!

Photos, Photos, and More Photos

I finally finished sorting through over 1400 pictures taken from our 2009 Mystery trip and and posted them to Picasa. You’ll find 500+ photos of Denver, San Francisco (including separate Russel Wright exhibit at the San Francisco airport), New York City, and Miami Beach. Now I just have to go through and add captions to all those pictures!

This was a trip of a lifetime, with so many memories. A number of things stand out for me:

How cold San Francisco was.
The booze cruise around San Francisco bay.
Breaking my finger climbing down to Sutro Baths ruins.
The NYC subway system.
9/11 in NYC.
Accidentally encountering Barack Obama in Wall Street.
My unexpected Miami Beach sunburn.
3 baseball games in 3 different cities.
The columbarium in San Francisco and the gothic churches in NYC.
The Italian influence in South Beach.
Hookers in the subway. Cranky ones at that.

Oh, the list could go on. But most memorable was hearing Lisa scream in delight when I told her finally where we’d be going, and of course watching the amazement and joy in her face those 2+ weeks we spent on both coasts.

Thanks for sharing this special time with me Lisa, can’t wait for next year!

Day 4

One of the weirdest sights we’ve ever seen, it was two 757s landing in parallel at San Francisco International airport, a thousand feet or so apart. Very, very cool though!

Our first day in San Francisco and we’ve already seen a lot: Fisherman’s Wharf, Boudin’s Bakery, the Golden Gate bridge and Alcatraz via a $15 fishing boat tour, tons of homeless people, homeless people screaming at each other, homeless people screaming at tourists, a very romantic dinner on the bay at sunset, San Francisco’s universal health care tax, a majestic view of the San Francisco city hall from our hotel room. Wow, talk about sensory overload. We’re bushed, and still a few more days here.

The cable cars, of course, we had to ride.

Still A Secret

michael — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 02:50:24 +0000

We’re going on vacation soon, and I don’t think Lisa has a clue what’s in store for her, I’ve kept it a secret for months now…

I hope you have fun, Lisa!! Love you, doll.

Ouray

michael — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 06:39:04 +0000

Lisa and I are off to Ouray, Colorado for the next few days to celebrate our 1st anniversary. It’s been exactly one year since we last went. Oh, and the pups are going, too. This will be the first real road trip for Bailout, and we’re going to try and get off-road as much as possible. More than anything, this trip will give us a chance to relax. I don’t know about Lisa, but I really need a break right now, and this trip will be a nice warm-up before the big September extravaganza!

First Year!

What a fast year it has been too. I believe it has been fast for me because I am very happy. Lot’s of changes have happened this past year and I anticipate many changes in the next, but all good just like the first year. I love you Michael, thanks for being my best friend/husband. Happy first year anniversary.

Year One

It’s already been a year?! Happy 1st anniversary, baby, it has been a truly wonderful year, I am looking forward to the next 50, and then some.

I love you so much!
