Rugby and so forth

This weekend, while Lou was in Dallas for work, Strauss, Joe and I walked down the road to watch the Heinenken Cup - my first rugby match. Leinster, the Irish team played Leicester, a UK team. From the outside, rugby looks a lot like American football. Lots of tackling. The ball is similar. Endposts. Rowdy fans. However, the rules, strategy and language are pretty different - scrums, trys, drop goals. I'm still learning.

The SCRUM

On other fronts, we are really excited to have our honeymoon officially on the calendar - our first trip to Asia. We are going to Koh Yao Noi Island in Thailand for a week in March. Koh Yao Noi Island is between Phuket Island and Krabi. We can't wait for cheap massages, amazing snorkeling, elephant trekking and laying on the beach. We are also spending a day in Bangkok, which should be incredible and very different from anything we have seen before. Here is a link to the resort we are staying at http://www.theparadise.biz/.

This week I accepted an account manager position with Fleishman-Hillard and will begin working on their health care team. We are also moving into our apartment on Tuesday or Wednesday. Here are some photos of our new neighborhood (it is as Clarendon as they come):
