TO: Sir Slaps a lottellingsquirrelJanuary 30 2005, 23:40:13 UTC
Dear Megan, I thought we liked being adults... Hah! Don't be too sad. Think of all the power you'll have. (Money earner= power, right?) I can see it now, you come home after a hard day at work, "Honey, I'm home!" Bob wipes the sweat from his brow. "Hello, dear, I have your favorite dinner waiting for you, mashed potatoes and ice cream!" he says. You look around, "Did you clean the WHOLE apartment?" "I did! Why don't you sit down while I rub your feet? Here's the remote, I don't care what we watch," he answers.
I also imagine he's wearing a frilly apron... and only a frilly apron.
And if you give up on the hair school idea I will slap you again.

I do love this idea. know exactly which frilly apron he'll be wearing. He does have great gams.
And I think you need to slap me again. I know better than to slap you back, too, because, you know, I'm going to be a wife.
But how am I going to go to hair school? Do I suck it up and go to Bees Hive of Beauty School, so that I can afford it? Because here is the deal. I will not be able to take any extended vacations, let alone a whole bunch of months off until Im 30. And then I guess I kind of defer the baby making dream?
Gah. I am in a mental rut. I spent an hour on my belly yesterday, listening to Joni Mitchell, crying and completely exeriencing my fucking period.
I know EXACTLY what you mean. wtf! why are weddings so expensive? im trying so hard not to have a typical traditional wedding and it seems like that only makes things more expensive.
have you checked out any of those books that help you have "your dream wedding for half the price" or whatever? i may be resorting to that section any day now. ugh.
Well, I bought a couple of wedding planner books back when i first got engaged. But they suck. They all tell you the same shit, like "You can save lots of money by making your own candles!" and "Have you thought about serving smaller portions?".
One amazing resource that I have found is the indiebride message boards. Its a shitload of women planning dope weddings. Some are having 150 person weddings for like $4,000. More than that, there is a wealth of information on how to plan a wedding realistically. And how to not get fleeced by the Wedding Industry. And to bitch about wedding stuff so you dont drive your friends nuts. Which you are very very welcome to do here on LJ with me.
i definitely wrote you another comment last nite but i guess it didnt go through. oops!
i actually stumbled upon indiebride.com a few days ago and its pretty rad. i havent had the time to completely engorge myself properly in it, but oh, i will.
we THINK we are doing it may 13th 06 at the chart house in weekhawken, nj? its on the water with a sick view of the nyc skyline. the inside is kind of, um wooden(?) but i think thats okay. what about you?

I need to be seeing more friends, and living outside of my stupid job and my couch and Sunday night TV lineup.
Lets flatten!
