First, a funny update on things dead-mouse-related. my friend janet sent me an e-mail about her own cat and dead mouse story, and i do believe it\u2019s more disgusting than mine:<\/p>\n
“I was teaching Owen the finer arts of cat box scooping, when we noticed a stray *poop* on the floor in spilled cat litter. Well, we thought it was poop and then it seemed to be a dried out mouse body. We prodded it some more and flipped it over… (Owen was doing the touching and i was cringing and cowering) and would you believe it was a pooped mouse!”<\/p>\n
yuck. <\/p>\n
besides dead mice, things are good. very quiet now. we got a marriage license today. we talked to the lady at the reception place and told her our choices for entrees. she said we could bring in our own mints\/nuts for the tables.<\/p>\n
so i had a little free time and decided to see how much mints and nuts cost online, to compare to actually buying them at a store. i immediately got SUCKED IN to the huge huge wedding quargmire of all kinds of crap that a person could buy.<\/p>\n
M&M\u2019s will sell you M&Ms which are PERSONALIZED. you get two lines of eight characters apiece on one side, and the M on the other. they\u2019re a little pricey, as you can imagine. you get to pick from many lovely colors.<\/p>\n
i then found a website with lots and lots of photos of wedding cakes. i didn\u2019t have time to look at all of them, but i found nothing that looks even CLOSE to how my wedding cake will look.<\/p>\n
the reception hall woman, monica, said to me that my cake lady could bring the cake in whenever she wants to on the saturday morning of the wedding. i said “i\u2019m making the cake.” she sort of raised one eyebrow and said, “oh, you\u2019re making it?” but then she didn\u2019t GRILL me about it and she didn\u2019t say ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND? or anything like that, which was very refreshing.<\/p>\n
things are COMPLETELY UNDER CONTROL around here, let me tell you. the crazy bottle painting is winding down, even.<\/p>\n
i just ordered a pair of lovely silver shoes online. DON\u2019T TELL RANDY! he is boycotting my website because i keep saying bad things about “into the woods” but he can\u2019t FORCE me to suddenly like the music. but anyway, i told him that since my dress is pale pink with some silver sparkly things on it, i need silver shoes.<\/p>\n
BUT GOLD IS ONE OF YOUR WEDDING COLORS he YELLED at me. YOU CAN\u2019T HAVE SILVER SHOES. GET PINK SHOES.<\/p>\n
i told him i\u2019d been to all the shoe stores in town and there were no pink shoes. <\/p>\n
YOU CAN DYE THEM he continued to yell.<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t see any dyeable shoes. i did find some very lovely silver shoes, but they only had a size six and a size seven, and i need a six and a half, so i quickly and easily found them online and they\u2019ll arrive AT MY DOORSTEP in the next 4 or 5 days.<\/p>\n
i just can\u2019t let randy see my feet during the wedding so he doesn\u2019t have to be HORRIFIED anymore.<\/p>\n
he\u2019ll be too busy with other things to worry about that.<\/p>\n
we\u2019re going to see “men in tights” tonight. if you don\u2019t know, it\u2019s a performance by the ballet company, and local men perform in a few numbers and they have to raise money to be in the performance and it\u2019s quite amusing to see them in tights. last year kevin was actually in the show, but he didn\u2019t have to raise any money because he knows how to dance. is that why? yes, i believe so.<\/p>\n
this year, we\u2019ll just be watching.<\/p>\n
and that\u2019s all for now. i hope your friday is good and your weekend, even better.<\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
friday grace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
