finally, FINALLY i took a couple of photos.<\/p>\n
two, to be exact.<\/p>\n
first, the bottles. 11 are almost done. eight more are about halfway done. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
i\u2019m pretty happy with how they\u2019re going.<\/p>\n
“how are wedding plans going, grace?” someone will ask.<\/p>\n
“the bottles will be done soon” will be my new reply.<\/p>\n
damn bottles. why do i have to be insane? these bottles will be such a small blip in the overall reception thing, which is only going to last a few hours anyway.<\/p>\n
ok, and here\u2019s the practice cake topper. i made it…how long ago? couple of weeks? i think. i can\u2019t recall, the days are a blur. anyway, the frosting flowers are all quite crunchy now but sometimes i try a bite to see if they\u2019re still edible and they are. <\/p>\n
kind of like a goat, grazing on flowers made of sugar.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
and by the way, the REAL cake topper will be infinitely, INFINITELY better than this one. this is a practice one, which has been nibbled upon for a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
i can\u2019t think of anything memorable at the fair today, except it was such a beautiful, beautiful day. what if all days were lovely and not humid and perfect like today?<\/p>\n
we\u2019d call it LA.<\/p>\n
my friend patrick called me today. HE\u2019S GOING TO SEE “INTO THE WOODS.” he\u2019s there right now as a matter of fact. now, i generally enjoy musicals. he doesn\u2019t even like the whole GENRE. the singing and the music and all. oh boy, that\u2019s all i have to say.<\/p>\n
four weeks from today, i\u2019ll be getting ready to go to HAWAII.<\/p>\n
i haven\u2019t really given this aspect of the whole wedding-honeymoon thing much thought. what about a new bathing suit, for one thing? oh brother. i have a serious bathing suit, that i bought last year when i was in a triathlon (WAS I OUT OF MY MIND?). i\u2019m certainly not taking that to hawaii. i have another one that\u2019s kind of cute but it\u2019s at least seven or eight years old and i haven\u2019t really ever worn it much but the elasticity is all going out of it anyway. i have a couple others that are kind of worthless.<\/p>\n
i\u2019ll add that to my list of many things to do in the next few weeks. do they still sell bathing suits? hmm. surely somebody has one. <\/p>\n
i have lots of hawaii guidebooks that i haven\u2019t even glanced at yet. i have a serious tendency to over-plan trips, poring through the books, planning out the itinerary. but this time it\u2019s gonna be different.<\/p>\n
mostly because i don\u2019t have the time to do it.<\/p>\n
but no, a HONEYMOON, that should be more romantic and carefree, right? that\u2019s why we\u2019re going to HAWAII, instead of say, new york city.<\/p>\n
whew. <\/p>\n
ok ok ok,<\/p>\n
