So after about 3 months online with my blog I've decided to make it readable "by invitation only". There are several reasons for this:
(1) Only my wonderful friends and family would be interested in reading about me,
(2) only my wonderful friends and family would be interested in reading about me,
(3) only my wonderful friends and family would be interested in reading about me.
No, seriously, I know the irony in posting a blog online and restricting its visibility (yes, then why even blog at all), but I am getting a *tad* bit freaked out about the possibility of a random person finding my blog and reading about my personal life.
So thats all folks. Hopefully you guys will continue to visit and read about my not-so-exciting life in NYC!
And p.s., for the readers who I don't know but still managed to read/find my blog, please at least let me know who you are. You shouldn't make a comment unless you're willing to show yourself...really...its the polite thing to do.
GO BEARS! (even though we dropped from like #6 to being non-ranked...boo hoo!!!)

Marriage licenses
So I was talking to a co-worker (who's also engaged), and she mentioned how getting a license in one state (while residing in another) may be something I want to look up. I went to NY and CA state websites and I think it shouldn't be a problem. BUT, there was a couple of interesting things I found out about the marriages in NY:
1) Frank and I can change our last name to anything that is a combination of our last names: "a name combining into a single surname all or a segment of the premarriage surname or any former surname of each spouse". THEREFORE, I was thinking of these options (and side note, why do most of these combinations sound japanese???):
Katherine Chokimo
Katherine Kimchoco
Katherine Chocoki
Katherine Kirocho
Katherine Cochim
Katherine Rokimo
2) If Frank was my first cousin (clearly he is not), I would be able to marry him: "There is no legal bar against marriage between cousins". Interesting...I thought this would be illegal in this day and age.
But there you go-- hopefully you all find this as fascinating as I did!
