I plan to do a wedding post but am waiting on some more photos to include with it. Stay tuned.
In the meantime...
Cliff and I hadn't been on our library date for a few weeks, so we made time for it last night. When we got ready to check out, I couldn't help but laugh again.

As I was going through my to-read list and typing them into the library catalog search bar, another patron commented on how fast my fingers were moving. This actually happens to me a lot, although I've never really taken notice of being a fast typist, until...
When I first moved here last summer and started helping Cliff with the law office, we were in the same room typing on our individual laptops quite often. Apparently Cliff believed that he was a fast typist because he kept offering to type things for me. I enjoy typing and would always decline his offers. Finally, I asked why he kept offering. He told me that he just thought that he could type faster than me. I just laughed. He continued to comment on typing faster than me throughout the summer. Finally, when I realized he was actually serious, not just teasing me, I challenged him to a typing test.
We pulled up www.typingtest.com because what typing test can be more valid than when it's right there in the URL? I went first. When I finished with results that I had expected, I showed them to Cliff.
He was shocked. He hadn't realized the challenge he had accepted. He started out, but fumbled around and finally gave up before the test was over on the premise that he had made too many errors.
Since then, I haven't heard a peep from him when it comes to typing.
Just for fun, I asked him to complete the typing test again last night. Being the good sport that he is, he attempted it again. Turns out, he is an above-average typist, so there was some legitimacy behind his beliefs.
I'll tell you what he can beat me at though--blogging! His wedding post has had more views than any of my other previous posts! Maybe I should seriously consider just turning this whole operation over to him.
