So I found a place in town with an opening this afternoon, and they took off yesterday's disaster of a gel manicure and replaced it--they were AMAZED by the terrible job that had been done, too. As...
An ADORABLE little girl (she totally looks like my goddaughter when she was younger) affirming her happiness with life! Great morning pick-me-up (I included the link so you can see it, Shannon!)....
And the fit is okay. Whew. Knee is feeling better, but I'm still trying to baby it. I wore a headband to sort of mimic the way it will be styled for the big day (twisted back and pinned with crystal...
So I found a cute little tapas place months ago, put it on the wedding website, linked to their website, it was fine, great, good reviews on Yelp--then FMIL goes to their website today and it...
Okay, so what should go in my bridal purse for the big day? So far I know I'll need: Nail polish & lip color for any necessary touch-ups Little oil-blotting tissues Regular tissues Contact solution...
We met with our officiant this morning and confirmed that we'll be using these excerpts from the Tao Te Ching. Some of the chapters we only took a very little bit from because I had to cut out a bunch...
I think we'll play this after the first dances, when I hand off my bouquet to my friend Jason, who's been with his boyfriend for almost five years now and REALLY wants to get married.
I actually screwed it up on Monday, but was waiting to see if it would get better--nope. FH took me to the doctor today and the doc said it sounded like I pinched the membrane in the joint, which is...
I had a VS gift card from my bachelorette party, so I went ahead and ordered lingerie for the honeymoon. At first I was looking at the "bridal" stuff, but I finally gave up--I just don't wear white; I...
...and we STILL haven't finished our vows. FH really wants self-written vows & I just think they're kind of... doofy. It's not just FH, it's basically ALL self-written vows. They may seem sort of...
It's the end of the semester. I have graded ALMOST every last exam (got a couple that had extensions coming in today, & my co-TA is MUCH slower at grading than me, unfortunately, so I can't submit...
Got my hair done today! I scheduled it for today so that there will be two shampoos before the wedding--so the colors will be just a TAD lighter, and the contrast between colors (pink, orange, and...
I mean REALLY BAD. I'm putting together our reception playlist in iTunes right now, and virtually every song I listen to that they requested, I cringe. FH's aunt who has been a never-ending source of...
The situation: We've been receiving a slow but steady stream of wedding gifts from friends and family since sending out invitations in late February. We're registered at Amazon.com, where I can see...
Okay, I have to STOP looking at this because I already have TWO pairs of shoes for the wedding, but if you are still looking, I highly recommend it!...
So this morning I caved when I saw I had a 10% off email from shoes.com... I've been wanting some new sandals, and I ended up ordering two pairs. With 10% off and free shipping, it came out to...
A lot of us are having various rants and issues, totally justified, but I thought I'd try a little pick-me up thread. Yesterday I had office hours to talk about the take-home essay exam that's due...
So I called in our cake order today--we're getting 11 dozen (132 total) mini-cupcakes from the Retro Bakery in Vegas: http://www.retrobakerylv.com/menu.html I wanted a lot of variety, so we're...
My mom has offered to host a reception for us a few months after the wedding so that people who live near my parents can come meet FH and celebrate with us. I've decided (thanks to those who advised!)...
Unfortunately, we can't order our announcements until we actually have wedding photos, so I can't use this, but if you place an order of $10 or more on moo.com, you can get free shipping with...
