    Ugh!  That sucks so bad!  That happened to me on Amazon - someone got my password and bought $500 in Amazon gift cards!!  Luckily the charges got reversed because I called early enough.  Good luck getting that straightened out!

    My only vent is that I'm getting irritated with FI being too "busy" to finish anything on his very SHORT "to do" list.  I asked him to call Delta by the end of June (they switched our flight from leaving at 6pm, arriving at 8am to leaving at 9pm, arriving at 11am and I am PISSED) and getting his passport done.  He FINALLY finished his passport...after I printed out all of the paperwork for him (in May) and walking him through the entire process in baby steps.  I asked him when he would call Delta and he said he was so busy and stressed and I'm just stressing him out more.  He's got some crap to do before the end of July and if he doesn't do it, I'm going to flip my shiiit.  He just needs to book our dance lessons and figure out the tux situation (and call Delta hopefully) but I have a feeling this is going to be like pulling teeth.

    On the bright side, we are going to Traverse City for 4 days!  Hopefully I will be designing my wedding ring, since he had my engagement ring custom made at a jeweler up there.  I'm so excited!

  • acaponi87: Ugh that sucks. I have also had my credit card stolen. $8000 in charges.

    My vent is if your sick please keep your ass home from work. People come in with the stomach flu and then give it to me. So now the day after the 4th I am miserable. However, I had to come into work or I wouldn't get paid for the holiday. H actually has time off work this weekend and I don't really want to be sick.

    WR: FI never wants to admit he is wrong about wedding stuff that we have talked about in the past. Yesterday he insisted the first venue we looked at had a maximum of 200 people, but really it was a minimum of 200. HELLO, I DID ALL THE RESEARCH, I WOULD KNOW!! Luckily I save everything and was able to prove I was right. Plus, he keeps saying that I will have changed my mind a million times before the wedding. Um, no. I make a decision and stick to it. He, on the other hand, has changed just about every opinion he has had about this wedding, at least once. UGHHHHH.

    NWR: My jaw is throbbing from muscle spasms and my dentist is out of town, so I saw his backup -- the guy didn't even examine me, he just told me I'm stressed and perscribed me some muscle relaxers (which are great, but I can't take during the day if I want to get anything done). So I'm basically just sitting here in pain.

    The good news is FI and my boss are both leaving town this weekend. I'm looking forward to some peace and quiet.

    Holy hell. $8000?! That's insane. Thankfully they only put like $200 on it before the bank shut down the card.

    Feel better!

  • Today I went to look (not try on) either a bridesmaid and/or wedding dress.  I was shocked when she just automatically "assumed" I was either MOB or MOG......
  • There are not enough hours in the day for me to have 2 jobs and do wedding stuff :( I feel like a need a personal assistant lol.  I know it will come together, but I can't help the "i-am-behind-and-don't-have-time-freaking-out" feeling.

  • Vent: Our venue is letting us bring in our own alcohol and I got into it yesterday with FI about what we should be buying. He showed me a list of like 50 different kinds of beer he wants to buy, and he only wants to get 6-12 bottles of most of the stuff. I flipped my shiiit and told him that was SO stupid and we should narrow the list down. I think it's fine that he wants some craft beers on his list (he brews beer and is a bit of a beer snob), but SERIOUSLY the bartender will go CRAZY with that many options, not to mention as a guest I would be really put off if I was able to get my favorite kind of beer at the beginning and then the next time I went up they didn't have the same kind of beer...y'know? It just seems asinine!

    Am I being irrationally irritated by this?

    I agree way to many choices. I would break it down to maybe 5 or 6 craft beers and 3 or 4 regular old beers. Than buy more of those kinds. The bartender will hate you and guest will be annoyed if they have one beer and next time its already gone.
