60 days

In 60 days I am going to become someone's wife. I will stand with him in front of our immediate families and wedding party and vow to share our lives together. It is supposed to be the most special day of my life and I am dreading it.

I want to be married, but I don't really want this wedding. I do not like the idea of being put on display like a show dog. I am not looking forward to having to dance in front of a bunch of people twice, having to be the centre of attention. I am really not looking forward to this. Do I want see my family and my friends and eat some good food, but this whole "wedding" idea scares the crap out of me.

So in 61 days I will be happily married an on my way to Alaska. So I am looking forward to that day 61 days from now.

Gah. I love/hate weddings and can't imagine having to go through the stress of having one of my own (even tho I so want to get married). I've been thinking that a registry wedding with family, then a huge muthafucken party would be the bomb idea.

But I guess it's too late for you now! Muahaha!

You'll be fine, it'll go swell, and then you'll be smug and married :)

Actually that is what we are doing. But even with the party part there is the "first dance" and the "father daughter dance" and all that shit.

Whatever I am just going to get my bridal party to save me by coming out to join us on the dance floor or something.

Listen to me very carefully. You do not have to do anything you do not want to do. If dancing in front of people makes you uncomfortable, DON'T DO IT! Believe me, the first dance is NOT a big deal and actual is one of the most boring parts of the reception. No one would miss it if you got rid of it. Do what you want, not what your mom wants. This day is supposed to be about you and your husband-to-be, not your mother. Believe me, I know how hard it is to make moms understand that (I had my own fights) and some things you will have to concede on, but overall she should do what makes you happy because NEWSFLASH!!! It is YOUR wedding. Not hers, not your friends', not your families' YOURS!

Okay, rant over. Call me if you need to gear up the courage to discuss things with your mom. I am great at making moms see my way of things. :)

DAMN YOU STARBUCKS So just when I thought that I was safe from edible temptation, Starbucks releases its Valentine's Day Cupcakes! I innocently walked into the Starbucks across the street from school and just as I walked in a guy asked me if I would like to try a sample. Before I realized what was going on I said "Sure!" I tried the sample, then I realized what it was I was eating... pure heaven in the form of chocolate. Then I realized what I should have seen all along! That guy who offered me a "sample" was actually a pusher! I have since clued in: I've been coming to Starbucks daily since I started school. These cheery people who happily serve me my grande non-fat no water Tazo chai every morning are actually just a bunch of disguised pushers who know that I have lost control of my addiction and am now searching for a new high! They've got me, in the form of chocolate and red velvet cupcakes..... Don't be fooled by their charming demeano...

OOPS! Tagged! :P

So Kass tagged me a while ago and I kinda forgot to do it! So here goes. I am not going to lie, I had to cheat a bit because the idea is to go into your pictures folder and choose the fourth pic from the fourth folder, but that pic had someone else in it and I didn't feel right putting someone else's pic on my blog without asking them, so I went into Facebook and took my fourth pic from my fourth album there. The next part of the tag says to explain the pic. Well this is the first pic I took of my engagement ring after I got it. It was so shiny. Sighhhhhhh. So that's my beauuutttiiiiiffffuuulll ring and I still love love love it! So for this challenge I tag Vegas Princess Delicieux Courtney Kim-d Looking forward to seeing all your pics! :)

Just so ya know

I have been feeling very low lately, so low in fact that I have had trouble doing anything. I can't even write about it. Part of it is because I feel so guilty for feeling this way, especially at this time of year when we are reminded of just how lucky we are. I have been reading all the blogs that I normally do but haven't been able to comment for one reason or another and I am sorry. I am fine and I will be back at it soon enough, but I just thought you all might want to know. Talk to y'all soon! :)
