The wedding is finally behind us and we successfully navigated our way through the nightmare surrounding the Tuscan Villas of Garden Oaks (or whatever it's called). My heart goes out to all of the brides & families affected by The Chef's Table & their two beautiful venues here in Houston closing their doors so abruptly. I am confident that someone will stumble on a great deal in this crazy market & both the Tuscan Villas & Bella Terraza will be better than ever.

With the wedding behind us (and Hurricane Ike) things are finally getting back to normal. I've realized that no matter how many times you practice that new signature it takes a while for things to sink in. Furthermore I'm convinced that the entire name change process is enough to make a person go crazy. Eventually, though, I'm confident that I will figure out what my name really is and every form of identification will finally match!
