Wow I did't realize it was finally time for their new album! The Gin Blossoms released their album recently and I listened to it for the first time Saturday night. It's really good to hear something new from them.

From the wedding! http://picasaweb.google.com/dangarion/WeddingPicturesAndWeddingDay Many more to come!
It seems I do this one a lot, don't I? Months on end I don't update my website. But it's not like anyone is actually checking this site out, besides Kelly and myself ;). Anyway I'm still alive, and our apartment is great! It's only 16 days till the wedding (CRAZY!). We've been finishing up loose ends and making sure everything is ready for the big day. I've added some pictures to the gallery. Check them out if you are bored. Hope everyone is fine. And I love my fiancee! She's wonderful! :D
We were approved on our credit check! Move in date 04/30/06! Anyone that wants to help give me a call!
So for the past week or so Kelly and I have been looking at various apartments and deciding where and what we can afford. Two months ago we stoped at a couple apartments and the very first one we looked at we really liked. Well we went back there on Monday and after all the other apartments still feel it's the one for us. The complex is right on the border of Santa Ana and Orange, it's probably less then a mile from my work, and slightly closer to Kelly's work since it's directly off the 22/55 freeways. The grounds are beautiful with lots of trees and a fake river throught the whole place.
They take really good care of the grounds make sure everything looks good. They have this great clubhouse in the center of the complex that reminds me of a log cabin or winter home retreat up in Big Bear.
There are pool tables, a pretty nice fitness center, 2 pools, tennis courts, and a basketball court. We like to play tennis and I've always enjoyed shooting baskets. It's also right next to bike/walking trail that covers about 4-5 miles which is great for getting exercise. Last but not least it's next door to Hart Park, which means I can walk over there and do hill sprints and then walk back home. I have my whole work out planned out already! We'll save a bit of money on gas since I'll be right down the street from work (at least at this time I am). I've also checked how much our insurance premium will be and currently I pay $730 per 6 months. With us both being on the same plan (as multi car but not married yet) our premium will be about $1000 total! She pays about $650 right now. Once we are married we will get discounts because single vs. married have discounts (oh no I'm taking advantage of the same discounts I used to complain about! :) ). Today we go over to the complex and check out the apartments that will be avaliable the second week of May (I'm hoping one if first floor because then I can also do working out in the apartment and not worry about making too much noise for the downstairs people) and hopefully we will be placing our down payment and they will process our credit. That will be once less thing to worry about before the wedding!
