So apparently the NYT just figured out that a palindrome date is happening soon (thank to my friend, D, for the link!). Oh, Dr. Inan, you are about one year too late in the palindrome date discussion - blushing brides all over America (where the MMDDYYYY format is most dominant) figured it out about 3 nanoseconds after the rings were slipped onto their fingers. Can you figure out the NYT's puzzle (linked above)?
01-02-2010, yeah baby!

Palindrome goodness
The wonderful world of palindromes is my kind of geekery. As an English major, palindromes tickle my funny bone and satisfy my desire for symmetry. You may be asking yourself, "What the hey is a palindrome?" Merriam-Webster says this.
Therefore, my wedding date, 01/02/2010, is a lovely, palindromeous date. Palindromeous is probably not a word, but if I learned anything from that Shakespeare class I sat through, it is that making up words is cool and savvy. There are those who look things up in a dictionary and there are those who make up the words in the dictionary.
If only I were so clever to come up with a palindrome title for this blog, but you see palindrome is rather hard to be clever with . . . em, ord nil ap . . .not a lick of sense.

Blogging the Wedding
I decided to blog my wedding process for a few different reasons:
1. I found out that you have to have 2 solid weeks of wedding blogging to apply to blog on the Wedding Bee website.
2. I want to share wedding ideas freely without worrying about bothering friends/family/fiance.
3. I thought it be a good way for family, bridesmaids, and others to check on the progress and not feel like they're bothering me.
And so commences my little venture in bride blogging.
