Yep, yours truly.  Not as exciting as my laser beam 2nd grade yearbook photo (you know, the one with the sideswept hair and Minnie Mouse sweater?  Totally going to have to ... http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/11/26/flashback/ A few weeks ago, in the midst of buying a house, packing up, and moving, John and Amanda took some time to do an engagement session with me. We've known John and Amanda since our college days, so I knew we'd have a blast. Congratulations on the new ... http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/11/21/john-and-amandas-engagement-session/ SIGH. http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/11/17/why-yes-that-is-deer-fur-sticking-out-of-my-headlight/ Oh boy.  You guys, this post is going to be a doozy. If you don't like looking at vacation photos, you might want to just mosey on back some other time, though I promise to try to make this as entertaining and painless as possible. Entertaining and painless is remarkably ... http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/11/14/probably-the-longest-blog-ill-ever-write/ Yesterday during a meeting, I somehow managed to cut my finger on a chair (yeah, I don't know), bleed all over my notebook, and in an effort to get a paper towel, trip over a "wet floor" sign, knocking it over. I think it's probably safe to say that my bosses ... http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/11/05/at-least-i-didnt-fall-down-the-stairs-yet/ My friend Katie, at a one-year-old's birthday party, in a room full of people unfamiliar with Twittering: "I spent all day looking at that guy's Twitter!" Her husband: "Um, you know I'm standing right here, don't you?" http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/10/07/its-kind-of-hard-to-explain/ I don't know about you guys, but as a kid growing up in the late 80s-early 90s, I LIVED for my Wednesday night Unsolved Mysteries.  Oh, Robert Stack, how you beguiled me with intriguing tales of long lost siblings, the ghost of Billy the Kid, and the likes of El ... http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/09/22/unsolved-mysteries-the-case-of-the-disappearing-lunchmeat/ As you might have gathered from my cookie post, Josh has some pretty odd sleeping habits. For instance, he is a sleep-eater. Often we wake up in the morning to find an open bag of Doritos in the middle of the coffee table, and Josh will shake his ... http://www.erintracy.com/blog/2008/09/17/i-guess-we-will-just-stay-clear-of-fish-markets/ Exciting things are afoot. Maybe. I've really been digging the term "afoot" recently, so I could be just inventing an excuse to use it. In any case, I think we can all agree --exciting or no-- things, they are: afoot.
