[mood | accomplished]

So I got a nudge recently to update my journal, it's been over a year now i see...

I have entered into an apprenticeship program to be an electrician. I love my job and I am learning a lot and having fun.

I went to Maui, Hawaii recently with my partner, Rabbitt, and we got engaged on a tropical beach. We chose to get tattoos rather than rings to celebrate, the first piece we got is sea turtles. I'll post a picture on myspace.

We are also pregnant. Our child is due in late January and we suspect a girl.

We have a niceish house in SE portland where we are gardening and enjoying life. We have not yet set a date for the wedding, but it will be far enough out to give travelers plenty of time to make preparations.

I have met a couple guys I have been playing music with, it could turn into another band in the next few months, if we find a steady place to practice.

how are you?

Congratulations on all the above!

I (we [me and [info]coprock]) just bought a house in the Longfellow/Hiawatha area. So, packing and moving have currently taken over my life.

Glad to hear things are going well for you. It's nice to hear from you. :)

Awesome.
That's just awesome.
We miss you. And I couldn't be excited for another one of you to miss.

A girl, you're thinking, huh? Oh, we are so marrying her in. Remember when choosing the name to pick something that will sound good with Brust.

Names

(Link)

If she is a girl her name will be:
Irja Naomi Miyashiro (Pronounced like Erie-ah)

Rabbitt and I will also be taking new names, the current theory is:

Erik Christopher Elmshauser Miyashiro
Rabbitt Anyasara Elmshauser Miyashiro

This may all still change so don't get too attached yet...

Re: Names

you are driving our parents crazy with that name indecision, you know.

We, on the other hand have chosen to make people wait to know what our little girls name will be.
