The Bachelor Party: Melrose Umbrella Co.

June 27, 2019June 30, 2019by Mr. Ramdolfi5 Comments

This is it, the last night out with the boys before the wedding! I know what you're thinking: "Here comes a narrative not unlike the synopsis for the 2009 film comprised of alcohol-induced adventures staring Bradley Cooper." Sure, it very well could have been the next installment of The Hangover, but that would have been too easy. Instead, I asked my best man to forgo the staples — scantily clad ladies, debauchery, and iniquity — and focus on slightly more sophisticated libation-filled activities...

This week the wife-elect and I picked up our wedding license! Upon signing our license in just a couple of weeks, we will officially be Mr. and Mrs. Ramdolfi! This experience has been fun, confusing, stressful, and ultimately satisfying — that is, once we had the license in hand. That said, there were some interesting items we learned along the way, namely, the following...

Date Night Watching Avengers Endgame, Again

June 13, 2019June 13, 2019by Mr. Ramdolfi2 Comments

We have been closely following the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) from its inception back in 2008, watching it unfold one movie at a time in theaters. Even then, we watched every movie again leading up to Infinity War, and then proceeded to impatiently wait for Endgame...

A Year Engaged

June 11, 2019June 11, 2019by Mr. Ramdolfi11 Comments

Today marks the exact one year anniversary since the engagement. It truly feels as if it was last week that I was on one knee asking my girlfriend to spend the rest of her life with me. Now, we're less than a month away from "I do!"

There is a secret place in our neighborhood where we like to walk at night to relax. Sure, it is technically part of a hotel, but for us it is our spot...

The Bridal Shower

June 4, 2019June 4, 2019by Mr. Ramdolfi19 Comments

I had never attended a bridal shower before. Heck, I did not even know men were allowed to these events! Regardless, I was happy to be invited. It was an interesting experience, not just because it was co-ed, but also because it was diverse...

How Far Would You Need To Walk To Burn Off A Pizza in LA?

May 31, 2019by Mr. Ramdolfi24 Comments

As someone who possesses all of the will power to not buy unhealthy foods, but has zero will power to refuse the same foods when given to me, I wondered, just how far would I have to walk to burn off my favorite cheat meal...
