375 Days to Go: More Nightmares

Have I talked about my overwhelming nightmares yet?

No?

Hmmm.

Well, last night was a doozey. First, David and I "crashed" some trashy arts and crafts extravaganza complete with runway stage and super sized all-my-homies wedding party. I mean like twenty-seven-ish people in badly tempra painted denim and white tee shirt combos. And David... David, who is NEVER less than reserved and observant, was a hard partying, loud, obnoxious ass. Oh, did I mention he spent like forty-five dream minutes haggling with the photographer to get a better price... while the photographer is photographing this hellacious shindig. What?

And then we are magically transported in the way only dreams - nightmares - can to a florist, who designed seven superbly hideous boutonniere monstrosities that cost me $600 in dream money, three hundred now and three hundred "later." The worst part... I liked them, in my nightmare.

And then... THEN... I wake up, log onto The Knot and realize very bluntly that I have exactly ONE YEAR AND TEN FREAKING DAYS TO FINISH PLANNING

And do you know what I've accomplished to this point? My dress... I've purchased my dress, a dress I'm fifty pounds to big to fit into. So really... I've accomplished nothing.

That court house is looking better and better.

  1. When my hubby asked me to marry him I immediately went into a panic, I am NOT a good planner! Since we live so close to the Outer Banks (OBX, NC) we decided to rent a house on the beach for a week and invite only our immediately family. Our wedding turned out to be a beautiful day! I wish you the best of luck boo!
