Most everyone arrived at my wedding Friday evening. But everone seemed too tired to do anything except eat dinner and go to bed. Many of them traveled from California and needed to get up early in order to arrive at a decent hour. The three hour difference really does screw with you. But a few people returned to my room for chatting, until I kicked ( Read more... )

Hi everyone!! I know I've been gone a while, but it's been busy. Pre-wedding was full of getting ready for the wedding and post-wedding stuff has been wrapping up everything from the wedding. The wedding had some problems, but which weddings don't? I've never known anyone to have an absolute smooth and perfect wedding. But at least mine was short ( Read more... )

Today's Friday Five involves school and whether or not you're in school. Since I graduated college way back in 1999, there's really nothing more to say about that other than that it was almost ten years ago and I hadn't even thought about that until the Friday Five brought it up and makes me think how old I am now and about all the hopes and ( Read more... )

So Chris and I went to the Clerk of the Courts today to get our marriage license. There was a hellacious drive, but that's neither here nor there. So here's the thing.

The wind and rain has died down since last night. There wasn't anything except some banging that came from one of the trees by the house. It woke me up a couple of times during the night, but it wasn't anything that kept me awake the whole night.

The tropical storm is currently off the coast and will most likely gain strength. They're thinking that ( Read more... )

While Chris and I were working on our reception manu, we lamented the fact that wine costs so much per bottle. We briefly thought about having a dry wedding since neither Chris and I are big drinkers. My family isn't either (My brother is a tea tottler). And with the exception of one or two friends, none of my friends are huge drinkers either.

So I have made up the invitations and stuffed most of them. I
bought more than I needed because I knew there would be some goof ups
and there were. A few of them were smudged because I have an inkjet
printer and the paper is vellum. Also, I smudged some with my fingers
and I miswrote some addresses.

I am awaiting a final list from Chris's ( Read more... )

I'm not sure how many of you are interested in the wedding
updates. Right now, I feel like all I do is wedding stuff and work.
And since I don't write much about work, this is pretty much the only
thing left to talk about.

So for those of you that are interested in wedding stuff:

We've locked down the florist. She's a woman that lives out of ( Read more... )
