Welcome toooo....WEDDDIINNGGGMANIAAAA!!!

SO, I had an epiphany while cutting lemons at work.

I knew that I wanted to have certain elements of the wedding plucked from different things that Dave and I enjoy. One of those things, for example, is I think having a "signature cocktail" would be a fun idea, considering he both bartend, and met in the bar he works in. Another, is the punk rock buttons idea, because we are both very into music, and we got engaged at a concert.

Another fun thing we have in common, is we both thoroughly enjoy professional wrestling. I enjoy it so much, that i used to be an indy worker (re: a wrestling personality on the independant/local scene. yeah, i know). So i thought it would be fun to incorporate wrestling in some way. One way i hav always thought would be fun would be to announce the wedding party as a wrestling card. I think this would be awesome. The epiphany that I had, while cuting lemons, was that our programs look like wrestling programs, the save the dates look like posters that you'd see in store windows, and we could make t-shirts for the family that have a weddingmania logo!

i fucking rule, and i think this is the cheesiest thing evarrrrrrrrr and you are jealous.

ps- dave is a lot less fun than i thought

getting your spousetobe to think of stuff...aka lame trickery

Today's phrase of the day is "lame trickery". Lame trickery is what you use to convince your otherwise nonhelp-y nondetail-y fiance to get the fire under his ass lit.

All you have to do is make a bunch of really lame suggestions, sprinkle in the ones you think are actually decent, and BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM you have made a joint decision.

Sneaky? Yes. Underhanded? Maybe. Lame? Obviously....does it get the job done? Absolutely.

Dave and I have been engaged since August 2007, and we are getting hitched on October 14, 2011...so that in numbers means a longass time. And in the timeline where longass is the end point, right now is on the closer than the further away side. So it's time to start making decisions as to what shit's gonna look like. What kinda crap we need to spend our monies on.

So...1" punk rock buttons are in, kazoos and waterguns as favors are out (LAME, but I'll take it.!)

so i'm watching dancing with the stars...

and i cant find a dress i like, like...anywhere. Hopefully, alfred angelo is secretly still manufacturing the dress that i fell in love with that is no longer on their site. And in watching espn erin whats her name dance, is it wrong that i just want to say "screw ittttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!"...and get a dress entirely made of fringe?

The Countdown Is On!

Hello everyone! Welcome to the world of all that is Dave and Linda getting married!!!If you want, you can follow all of the planning, saving, mishaps,meltdowns....and whatahaveyous....I'll have pictures, bios, and what my favorite wedding website refers to as "wedding porn" like gorgeous shoes, gorgeous flowers, hotel updates, and whatever my lil bridezilla heart desires...but at least it relieves the rest of the facebook and myspace world of my wedding blahhhhhh.
