Still here, though I do try my best to check LJ from time to time.

 I've been here for a little while http://marriedtomyperson.wordpress.com/  and I think I'm going to stay here for good, I just started it for a short period of time for kicks (by kicks I mean I was pressured into doing this, just like I was to start LJ) but I think I'm going to keep it.

On the plus side, if you don't want to have to keep checking ( Read more... )

 I just finished a heaping bowl of special K cereal with strawberries that I have been looking forward to for weeks. The past two weeks all I've had for breakfast has been wedding cake (except for the one day we went to IHOP). I'm pretty sure I've gained a few more pounds and I'm actually okay with this.

Arrogance is such a dangerous thing. But what scares me more is jealousy ( Read more... )

On the plus side, later this week it's supposed to be in the 70's.

My dad keeps starting 10 projects and switches back and forth between them but never actually finishes any. Then after a while he throws something at me to do and then gets upset because it's been delayed. My dad is the bridezilla in our family. Sometimes it's funny, but most of the ( Read more... )

Live and let live. 
It's not that difficult.
Seriously.
