Da da da da dum dum…

I’m so excited, and I just can’t hide it. I’m about to lose control and I think I like it…

{Cut to me singing at the top of my lungs and jumping up and down like a maniac.}

Ahem.

So if anyone asks, that didn’t happen just now. There was no Pointer Sisters song playing on a tape. There was no secretly stashed away boom box. There was no vigorous head bopping and arm waving. And there was definitely no leg warmer wearing. Nope, no leg warmer wearing at all.

Now that that confession clarification is out of the way, let me introduce myself. I’m Miss Dew Drop, and (on the off chance I was being way too subtle with my singing) I’m so excited to be here!

This has been a really hectic year for Mr. Dew Drop and me. After we got engaged in December, things just started to get crazy. I’ve been opening up my own law practice and taking graduate law classes in estate planning. He’s been transitioning into a new role at work. We renovated his townhouse and are prepping my townhouse to rent out. And my sister had twins! So we rushed off to Connecticut to help out for a bit. Then we rushed back and began a mad dash to finish our wedding planning. And somewhere in there we’ve been trying to remember to have a social life (it’s important to actually have guests at the wedding, right?).

With everything that’s been going on, we’re really excited (and stressed out and then excited again) to be getting close to our wedding date.

We’ll be getting married in September at a historic mansion about half an hour south of San Francisco. We’re having what I like to call the Diet Coke of Indian weddings–an Indian/American hybrid wedding. (I’m Indian; Mr. Dew Drop is not.) It will be a multi-day celebration, and I can’t wait to share all the details with the hive!

(P.S. Ironically enough, my first name means “morning dew”. So how could I resist picking Miss Dew Drop as my Weddingbee name?)
