Good morning!

Hi ladies.  It's snowing here and it's making me grumpy.  It would be a perfect day to curl up on the couch with the doggy and watch bad TV.  But alas, I'm at work.  What's everyone else up to today?

    My FI and I are playing hooky from work this morning.  We are both sooo over our jobs.  I only have 3 weeks left woot!

    Same old, same old.  My sister is on a business trip to Louisiana for the next week so I have to use the unreliable public transit to get home (yucko) Not to rub it in, but it's supposed to be 70's and 80's through Tuesday so I'm pretty toasty right now :)

    It's a brisk 40ish degrees out; I forgot to turn the heat back on last night. Awesome.
    WTH is it snowing, Kiki?!

    What's funny is that it was almost 80 here yesterday.  This city is nuts, weather-wise.

    I can finally stalk the 10 day forecast for the wedding!  Right now they're showing 66 degrees, partly cloudy, 10% chance of rain.  Not too shabby.

    I am also trying to convince myself that I don't really hate my dress, I'm just panicking at the last minute and yesterday was a bad day in which I didn't really feel like trying it on.

    FWIW, I think that dress was made for you. It's so incredibly stunning; it hugs you in all the right spots---and I cannot wait to see your pictures with you all done up--because you are gunna be a knockout! In short, I has dress envy <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-kiss.gif" border="0" alt="Kiss" title="Kiss" />

    Snow...ick! I don't envy you, and I would soooo want to curl up on the couch on a day like that. Hopefully it warms up soon!

    I am stuck at work too but at least the sun is out and it is warming up. Meeting with our final reception vendor this evening and making some decisions tonight!

    Yay, Brie!  66 is perfect, IMO. 

    And, your dress looks great on you.  You're going to look amazing.  It's just stress.

    I just feel kind of lumpy in it.  It's got a bunch of underlayers that keep bunching funny at my hips and have to be pulled down constantly, and I feel like it's because of my giant Sasquatch birthing hips.  And they took in the top and there's definite cleavage.  I think I'm getting self-conscious because I finally realized, hey, 100 people have to see me in this in a week.

    It could also be because I've been wearing old, stretched-out Spanx to the fittings, but I'm wearing a new, super sucky-inny pair for the wedding.  So, hopefully that will help.

    Brie I'm excited for you!  I can't wait to see the pics :)

    Good morning love buttons... I'm nervous because it's my "weigh in" day for this 12 week program at my gym.  We weigh in once per week.  I ate really good this week, but you never know!

    Good morning!  I'm in an excellent mood this morning because yesterday I got all up in one of the upper level manager's faces via email, and the CEO was copied in.  When I got in this morning and saw an email from the CEO I was pretty sure I'd get a stern talking to, but instead he 100% backed me on the issue.  That really made my whole week.

    Brie,

    Try not to stress about your dress.  Remember you picked it for a reason.

    And betrothed, I'm disgusted with most of the comments that you have posted. I don't think I've ever read such judgmental comments in my life. I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you. I genuinely feel awful for your children or your future children, and I think it would be irresponsible of YOU not to invest in their future therapy sessions starting now. Because trust me when I tell you honey, they're gonna need it. ~jcaruncho2010

    My SO is in his last finals before he's officially DONE with law school. So he'll be great next week, but this week... 

    He has this nasty habit of always thinking he failed the test. The more poorly he thinks he did leaving the test, the higher on the grade curve he actually is. If he wasn't so mopey, it would be kind of funny. 

    I go into work today at 10:30 but I am up early because SO wanted to grind his espresso fresh this morning, pound it in the espresso maker and steam a bit of milk for his latte. We live in a loft so I could all steps that go into making his latte.

    Thanks, guys.  I know it's likely because I'm kind of in last minute panic/I don't care mode, and I'm sure it'll be fine the day of.

    Also, I managed to break a wedding gift last night WHILE unwrapping it.  Go me.

    BlueBox, if my FI did that and woke me up, I'd be throwing the espresso machine out the window.  I'm very grumpy when I'm woken up.

    Me too! Me too! And yes, there will be cake. But it will be in the shape of a corn cob. Hope you're okay with that.

    Cake's pretty much mandatory.

    Brie, your dress is stunning.  Once you get in those Spanx, it will be smooth sailing!

    Betrothed, that's awesome about the email.  Way to lay the smack down.

    As long as it's completely edible, I'm 100% on board with cake in the shape of corn cob.
