Thursday night

Re: Thursday night

  • KJB - yes - you are indeed delightful :).

    LDY - ROCK it!!  Good luck tomorrow.  You'll do awesome.  Keep sending out those resumes.  I spent 3 weeks on an air mattress when I first moved to Denver before H could get back to Ohio and move our stuff.  Not the most fun 3 weeks considering the only thing in the apartment was the air mattress and two dog beds - and mine and H's clothes.  I sympathise with you - totally.  I was mostly alone cause H was working in Wyoming at the time, but the first night he stayed with me on the air mattress I dreamed I was on a boat all night - bad news.

    Poke - the last time we did any kind of knottie elections it didn't go over well - 
  • HI. FI is hosting Dungeons and Dragons at our place tonight. He's doing accents. I'm trying to escape the reality that this is happening right now... I can only handle so much nerdiness at once.

    I love the mermaid hypotheses. I remember having a very confusing conversation with my mother when I was about 5 trying to figure out how mermaids went to the bathroom while looking at pictures from a Disney Little Mermaid picture book. My mom came up with a theory that there was a very tiny hole so microscopic that it didn't show up in the pictures.

    [QUOTE]I just noticed that AA has a Knottie of the week. <strong> I want to have Knottie elections. For what, I don't know. </strong>

    <div>Yes. I don't know for what either but that would be fun. Only if you get a special badge or gold star or wine or something. </div>
  • Loopy - You mean me? Are you having baby brain? ;)

    What sort of elections did you do?

  • My FI side eyed me this morning when we were talking about potential ushers for the wedding. I want to have a girl friend of mine as an usher, and he's all "ushers have to be men" on me. I told him that they didn't and that I had asked my best guy friend (my first boyfriend who all these years later is still my bestie) to be a "bridesman".  I was so disappointed that he declined. 

    Well FI said "Bridesman? WTH is that? What would he have worn?"

    I said "a Tux, like y'alls"

    "Well that's stupid", he replied.

    "I love you, but you really need to get with the times dude."

    You'd have thought that I'd sprouted an extra breast or something by the way he was looking at me. 

    I won.  Natasha, my FEMALE usher, is a Russian immigrant (just made citizen last year!) and is a hoot.  I love her to pieces. 
  • Oh God, no knottie elections. We are too nice around here for those to be fun anymore #1 and #2...it was rough.
  • Lizzie - tell FI that I had a Man of Honor. It turned out great. 

    Loopy - That's twice in one night! Baby brain, party of you : p

    Although I'm also curious about the elections.

  • Ahhh thanks Ldy! Loved the hm! It was amazing. Basically no Internet for over two weeks was a little rough though hahaha basically only at night when we were on the boat not doing anything. J there are a few guest pictures up online and some are decent but I cannot wait for my pros and video to come in. I chose the sig I have now because my spectacular cake was in it. I loved my cake. It was stunning and delicious like you wouldn't believe.
  • Megbo, where did you go for your HM?

    <div>BAHAHA! This post is just full of amusement. I have very amusing images in my head regarding your FI. </div>

    <div>Your cake is pretty amazing : )</div>
  • Yes, I want to hear more about these elections. 

    Megbo, I was wondering if you wanted to show off that cake ;) I love the swirly looking frosting on it. 
  • Lizzie, could he maybe be uncomfortable that it's an ex?
  • I thought the knottie "elections" were kickass.  But I won a couple, so there's that.  Maybe it was just one that I won.  I don't remember which.  Hmmmm...let's find the thread.

    Everything the light touches is my kingdom.
  • Well Lizzie, to be fair my MOH was gay. But I've seen men in that role that aren't gay.

    Holly - I do that pretty often. I go to do one little task and suddenly I go into deep cleaning mode. 
  • Holly, it's amazing how much cleaning wipes you out. We cleaned the place yesterday for the first time in waaaay too long and by the time we were done with the scrubbing, sweeping, mopping, and vacuuming, I was just about ready to pass out.

  • My aunt made it. It's pretty freaking amazing. Petals we went on a cruise from Barcelona to France, 4 ports in Italy including one near Rome and Venice, Slovenia and Croatia. We saw so much, it was awesome.

    Petal - yea - People did like an uber knottie poll (mostly on SB but there's enough cross board activity) like a year and a half ago and incorporated clicky-polls for voting.  Feelers got hurt.  We weren't as friendly between the two boards as we are now and it was kind of bad.

    Dammit - you're both PP names.  and you're both posting tonight.  *going to pout in a corner*
  • I also agree that Meg's cake is gorgeous.

  • Wait, so knottie elections were a thing that happened?  lalalink?
  • Very nice, Meg. I am jealous. I'm glad you had a good time. 

    Also, I'm very impressed with your aunt. It's beautiful.

  • So were their categories in the elections that weren't so nice? Or were people sad because they didn't win?

  • Which Knottie elections? Like the one where Kiki was named Biggest Douche?

    <div>I don't even want to think about the cleaning I'm going to have to do when I move in with H. It's not that he's a slob or anything, because he's actually better about picking things up right away than I am. But he doesn't do deep cleaning or anything. He keeps up with the dishes and makes sure things look tidy, but that's about it. </div>

    <div>That's not a problem...I introduced them and they hit it right off. We took a motorcycle trip up the East Coast last summer together (BFF, his GF, me and FI). I ended up hanging out with BFF's GF while FI and my friend went off with the rest of the crew on guys only rides and stuff.  </div><div>

    <div>Yeah - those.  I missed some of it, so I may have a skewed version cause I was working like 80 hours a week at the time.. I just remember the kiki backlash.  </div>
