I’m excited to finally update my blog and announce that Anca Pitariu and I got hitched on June 22nd, 2008. She’s now Mrs. Anca Bonner, too. Good deal!
Wedding pictures are up (click on the picture):

We also went to France for our awesome honeymoon. Pictures can be found here:

Then, we came back to an a complete apartment makeover by Anca’s parents. Amazing and totally blown away!
And last weekend, we went with Drew and James to Lollapalooza and had a blast!
It’s been a whirlwind month, but now it’s finally winding down. I’ll try to update more when there’s time :)
In my spare time I’ve taken the time to build my very own tube guitar amp! Some of my friends who enjoy RPG’s so much, say that I’ve been given a +5 repair rating to my already generous 12 (out of 20 apparently). I’m very proud of my new addition and have some pictures posted below. I built it using schematics, layout and a kit from http://ax84.com and drilled, wired and assembled it myself (with some helpful assistance from Jamie and Drew). Soon, I’ll probably change some tubes and tweak things a bit to get and even better sound, but for now, it’s my pride and joy.
For those who haven’t heard, on Sunday afternoon, Anca and I became officially engaged! It happened “spontaneously” at her favorite place in Chicago, Graceland Cemetary (Irving Park and Clark) on a sunny, fresh snowed day. We’re so happy and hope that you’ll share the excitement with us. We already have the day of our wedding scheduled, so for you lucky few, keep your calendars open for June 22nd, 2008.
Here’s a link to some pictures we took, enjoy!

Hey there lovely people, just a quick update that I’ll be staying with my friend James in LA (Venice) for the next week. I won’t be checking emails or answering the phone much…but you can try! ;) Anyway, the plan is to relax, play guitar, see a few sites, etc.
Enjoy your Labor Day and don’t forget that the Near West Vineyard’s having a free cookout! :)
