Who's around?

pokepoke27 · May 2012

I'm totally ready for an Evening thread. Anyone else?

ArynBaker · May 2012

I'm here! I don't know why but the following fb status really irks me.

"So far today, we have bought a vacuum cleaner, a blender, a kitchen mat, a laundry hamper, $100+ of containers, and ice trays. Amount of our own money spent? $10.85. Gotta love wedding gift cards..."

I mean, I know that's what the gift cards are for but still.

ArynBaker · May 2012

Bree, that registry status would have seriuosly bothered me! It comes off (to me) kinda like "I can't believe nobody has found it and bought us stuff so I'll make it easy for you."

PetalPockets2012 · May 2012

I'm here too. I'm searching through old threads for recommending books. Now that I have a nook I'm trying to update my "books to read" list.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Yikes. I don't think I've posted anything WR on FB. Much less information like that. How tacky.

Aryn - that would annoy me too. I mean, why not say something like "So far today, we have bought a vacuum cleaner, a blender, a kitchen mat, a laundry hamper, containers, and ice trays. Excited!"

ski2play · May 2012

Hi all, Bree long time no see! Hope all is well in your world. Both of those FB statuses would bother me, I try to keep everything off FB related to the wedding. Although I couldn't resist checking in at the municipal town hall when we got our license.

I had icecream for dinner, banana cream pie icecream dipped in the chocolate that hardens. It was heavenly.

And Poke, holy speeding bullet batman, you are so very close! What fun!

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Hi Ski! I just had boring Subway for dinner (roast beef though, yum!) I'm totally jealous of your ice cream for dinner.

I wish I could have my license. Since we both have to physically be there to get it we won't be getting it until next Monday. Yikes.

And I'm so close. It's exciting and freaky at the same time. It's like....woah haha.

ArynBaker · May 2012

Mmm ice cream for dinner. I love being an adult. I had half a watermelon for dinner

I love watermelon.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Oh, I love watermelon too! My mom doesn't though, which is so odd. I mean, they're sweet and refreshing but they don't have any kind of strong flavor. What's not to like?

PetalPockets2012 · May 2012

I can't stand watermelon. I don't know why but I do not like it at all.

I haven't had ice cream in awhile. I've been trying to stay away from it.

ski2play · May 2012

I like watermelon for dinner too! Yes, being an adult can be fun.

Bree glad you are busy and doing well. I love your new signature picture. I am super excited to take some pictures at our wedding venue.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Bree - that sounds super refreshing. I'll have to try it.

[QUOTE]OMG I love making watermelon water. Like cucumber water only with watermelon chunks/juice instead. It's divine on a hot day.

<div>How do you make either of those? Watermelon water sounds really interesting.</div>

abbalish · May 2012

Hello! H and I just got back a little while ago from our weekend music festival. The festival was great, the weather was perfect, and I only got a wee bit sunburned. I'm unpacked, showered and comfy in a fresh pair of sweatpants, and H and I just went and got Rita's. Feeling very content right now! Too bad tomorrow's Monday

pokepoke27 · May 2012

abbalish - what a buzz kill, right? haha. Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend though.

Yes! This week shouldn't be too bad though - I'm in a class Mon-Weds so at least I get a little break from my regular work.

I can't believe all the weddings that are coming up around here! And those that just happened, too :) I didn't like planning my wedding but I'm jealous of all the ones happening now!

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Yeah, there are a lot going on. But that's not too suprising. These are the "Monster Months" for weddings after all.

ski2play · May 2012

abba that sounds like fun.

We visited our wedding venue this weekend. The below is a picture of where I get dressed and the aisle that I walk down to the gazebo. Me and my MOH are on the third floor of that building and have to walk down the steps. Yikers, I hope I don't to a nose dive.

ArynBaker · May 2012

Ski that location is beautiful! I love the aisle you'll be walking down!

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Wow Ski - that's absolutely beautiful. I love it!

It's been stormy a lot lately. I hope it clears up in the next two weeks...

abbalish · May 2012

That's gorgeous, ski! You'll be fine

What is your venue?

PetalPockets2012 · May 2012

Beautiful Ski!

ski2play · May 2012

Going and visiting there got me pretty excited about the whole wedding. I am exhausted and full of icecream, I think it is bed for me.

Have a nice week all.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Goodnight Ski!

FI has never seen our venue in person. I'm excited for him to see it - which is a little silly because he couldn't care less about where we're actually getting married.

mica178 · May 2012

Ski -- that's so pretty!

ArynBaker · May 2012

Poke, you must have one laid back FI.

ski2play · May 2012

Thanks Mica and all, my FI actually picked out our venue, he keeps telling me it is the most romantic place on earth. It is a very cool castle.

And this time I really am signing off, it will be a busy week.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Aryn - he is fairly laid back. He told me he doesn't give a flying flip about any of the details of the wedding as long as our guests are taken care of and he leaves as my husband.

zizibet · May 2012

I'm here.
Poke, you're almost there-how cool!
PetalPockets-Take a look at Graceling by Kristin Cashore, especially if you like Insurgent.
Had leftover pizza for dinner. Bree, I thnk that FB status is tacky too. It's not Extreme Coupons on TLC.

PetalPockets2012 · May 2012

Thanks zizi.

I haven't had pizza in awhile either. I obviously am not doing well at my diet right now.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

I never realized how much I loved pizza until I couldn't have any haha.

Who's around?
