My wedding dress is probably smashed into some random box in our storage unit. It was hanging in the garage last I saw it...and then we moved to WA. I plan to keep mine & throw it on when the mood strikes a'la Paula.

Good morning friends! Gawd, could those pictures be any more retarded??!! We had sooooo much fun just talking about completely random stuff. What was my point? LOL! Thanks Abby for being the official reporter on the event. We will def have to do this again. And for sure a doggy date when the damn snow stops.

Yay kate! I'm getting ready to pack it up & get outta here too. See you soon!

Ooooh, I know there are definitely some women that would not be luvin that idea! I wouldn't care, but that's just me.

Ok, wow, I totally missed this. Alyssa- you are one class act with the way you are handling this. I would be flipping the f out!

Hey lady...I'll be leaving between 5 & 5:30 today if I don't go home first because I have this new-fangled chesty cough thing all of the sudden that makes me want to rip my own lungs out

Ugh...it's totally a swingers spot. This brings back some bad memories of my first trip to Jamaica....lets just say that a majority of "lifestylers" are not very attractive. Have you seen that Jack in the Box commercial where Jack & his wife are in the hot tub with 2 swingers? COMPLETELY ACCURATE!! :shudder:

Holy Crap!!! How did this happen so quickly? Congrats Rachel - I wish you the best day EVER!!

Yay for you! Happy anniversary. I hope it is a very special & loving day for the both of you

I just received a vague STD...they had a date, but no location! It said something like "somewhere not too far from here". It's totally the couple - I wouldn't expect anything less from them. Point - I think some info is better than no info. Get it on people's minds with a save the month & then fill in the details on your wedding website.

I am happy that I am a much more evolved, superior being than my husband's ex-wife. I am also happy about the 24 ounce beer I am going to drink right after 5:00 today.

I saw all these beautiful flower siggys one after the other this morning & I knew something was up!! Great theme Tammy.

Hehehe Abby! Is somebody over thinking our get together?? Just kidding. I will say that when Kate & I got together it did kinda feel like a blind date before I got there. Once we found eachother it was just AWESOME. I thought Kate was totally like her online persona & felt immediately comfortable. We shot the shit for a few hours until we were too cold to continue sitting outside, so we bailed. So regarding the etiquette question, is it not cool to get completely wasted & ask you to drive me home? LOL!

You know what - despite what it seems like, it is totally not too early. I used Suzanne Morel too & my ceremony was at 4pm. They were at my hotel at 8:30. I had one BM for hairl & makeup, my mom's makeup & my hair & makeup. Trust them - they know what they are doing. Just ask not to be the first one they work on.

You are a doll Abby - I'm sure it would be un-lame if you were to drink & read while waiting for the rest of us working stiffs. Depending on traffic, I can most likely get there about the same time as you...so we can drink & read to eachother!!

Thank you for your support Abby...you are officially on my "do not kill" list

Don't get me wrong, I love having DH around, but there is something so luxurious about having a whole weekend to do whatever you want all alone! Yummy! I totally feel you on this one. There definitely is something about having the house to yourself for a few days...it always goes so fast though.

This has been a challenging day in the social tolerance department. So I am going to say I am happy that I have not acted on my impulse to kill the guy that sits behind me with my bare hands. Go me!

I'm hoping that it's just the crappy weather that's affecting me right now and that I'll start to geel better once the spring gets here. If not it looks like I'll have to go back on it. Not looking forward to that : It's nice to not have to worry about popping pills every morning for a change!! Melissa, I know you posted this over a week ago but I just wanted to say you are not alone. I shared with you some time ago that I had been on Zoloft for several years for anxiety & depression. When I discovered I had other things going on (hypothyroid & hormonal imbalances) I came to learn that the anxiety/depression may have been part of that. Blah, blah, blah...anyway, point is, I weaned off the Zoloft at the end of last year, maybe November? Then winter hit. A winter like I've never experienced right? Moving from California to Washington introduced me to a whole new winter experience. I didn't think anything of it. Well now I look back on the last 3 or 4 months and reflect on how I've been feeling, how my husband has been reacting to me, etc.....I just read your post & it made me realize - hey, maybe some of that stuff snuck back in? Maybe that's why things have been so hard? Hmmmm.... I guess it's just an ongoing battle. I share your pain & concerns.

She interrupts me again - this time like a decibel short of yelling - and says that she does not want to speak to me, she wants to speak to "a MAN who actually knows what they're talking about!!!!" omg...there is no quicker way to piss me off. I put her on hold and found a guy to talk to her...but damn, it sucked SO bad. Ok, just reading this makes my blood boil!! What a biznatch! There are some really great stories here ladies! I know I have some customer service horrors in my past that stopped me from ever wanting to service customer ever again...but I think I wiped them out of memory!

All I have to say is "Nasty Naughty Natalia" LOL!!!

Hey there Stephanie (if you see this), hope you are well & having a wonderful birthday!! Miss hearing from you.
