Not Engaged Yet

Le Sigh

My mom's Goddaughter bought her wedding dress this week, she isn't engaged!  My mom was all excited and happy for her and I was not.  I tried to explain to my mom that it was BSC (she didn't appreciate my language lol) and she was like oh just be happy for her.  What is there to be happy about she isn't engaged!  Gah mother!  I asked her if she would be happy if I had bought my wedding dress before I had gotten engaged and she got quiet.  Le sigh.  Oh well, to be fair this girl is rushing into this relationship crazy fast (they have been dating for 3 maybe 4 months?)  and while there is nothing wrong with talking about marriage it is a big jump to buying a dress.  Oh well, good thing I don't see her too often. Lol.  How is everyone else’s Monday?

    Buying a dress 4 months into a relationship with no engagement?  Yep, crazy on several levels.

    What can you do, though?

    Oh ya!  Big time!  She is really smart but just chomping at the bit to get married.  It is nuts.  She got her degree and the next step seems to be get married PRONTO!  My mom is encouraging it which makes it worse.  Sigh.

    Crazies are comin'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What is going on?!

    My Monday is going terribly. I didn't get the internship I REALLY wanted at an adoption agency for next semester.. So now I quickly need to find something. We need one our last semester of school before graduation. Eeek. One good thing is that Jeff accepted one of the job offers and now I can live in the city still! :) This is good. Because I love the city. I guess one good + one bad = okay?

    Ah sorry to hear you didn't get the internship Hope it sounded pretty interesting too.  May be it's the water, or is there a full moon tonight? I could never buy a dress or anything before being engaged.  I even feel bad if I look at e rings....

    Monday has been ok, heading off to church in a few then relaxing the rest of the night.  So tired.

    Anniversary

    I hear you danser.  I got up way to early and I have been dragging ever since then.  I have one more class tonight and a French test to study for some more because I am taking it tomorrow.  I am not that worried though.  But I need to do some serious study on the L'mperatif!  I just keep messing up.  :(  I hope I make it through class!

    I love french I studied for about 8 years, sadly since I don't use it as often as I would like I've lost a lot of it.  I'd love to find a french grammar book or something that allows me to review and keep it fresh without feeling like i am in school again.  Bonne chance!

    I really don't understand how she could think that buying a dress right now is a good idea.  Or even think of doing it.  Sigh.
