He never told me about it. His friend that acts in it did when I met him. To be fair, Christian now makes great films. So, don't judge him too harshly if that thing is terrible.

Betrothed, I'm sending you my very first knottie hug ever. I totally understand. Any time you want to email/chat/talk/whatever, let me know & I'll fess up contact info. For the moment, I'm headed to our friend/officiant & BM's apartment. She & I are going to drink wine & watch movies while the guys go hit the bar. I can't post on my blackberry, but I can lurk. And will. email is squirrly103 at gmail dot com if anybody needs me - and I can answer that. Whit - that pic was awful. But you're still awesome. Later all!

Hi all, I'm here, just haven't been talkative.Beer+lack of sleep.

betrothed123 · November 2009

Squirrly,When I'm somewhat sober I may email you to chat about it. There's an extra layer of emotions here that very few people know about. It might actually help to get it all of my chest, but I'm in no way capable of discussing it right now.

[Deleted User] · November 2009

Betrothed, you know you can always email me as well. I thought about you all day and wondered how you were. I'm here for ya.

Ok, I'm going to share a story. I posted last night that I was really angry for FI not having his phone charged and he got stranded with 2 flat tires.He's going down the road and thinks he runs over something and his tire immediatly goes flat. He creeps to the next exit and the gas station right off the exit. Goes inside and it's packed with Menonites and two cashiers with bad/no teeth. Asks if there's a pay phone. Gets a long story..."WHALE, we used to have one down there where you cum in, but then some trucker done went and ran over it. So we don't got no pay phone no more'. So the he asks if anyone has a cell phone. "No, we aint got one of those'. Alright, can I use your store phone? Not if it's long distance. Ok...Goes outside to try to see what he can do with the air tank that really wasn't working. Some guy walks up and tells him it's crap and go back to the back to use the one the truckers use. Dude follows him back. Turns out FI didnt' have a lug wrench that fits. Asks dude if he has one. Dude says he'll call one of his friends, cause he knows everyone in the county. Dude keeps talking to him and reveals that he just got out of prison for having a meth lab get busted up. Finally, AAA pulls up. Dude knows him. They start talking and AAA guy was like, Oh, great to see you're out of prison, you gonna clean you're life up now? "Nah, I too far gone, plus, how I gonna make money to support the old woman? While they are over there talking, FI, being the white city boy he is, takes his wallet out of his pocket and hides it in the truck, he just knows he's gonna get shanked. Finally FI gets the tire changed (white dude is still there). Dude keeps asking FI if he 'wants' anything. FI keeps saying no. Dude is like...it's not often you meet a meth dealer with 5-6k on him. FI finally high tails it out of there. The end.

Hi Kiddos!

louisvillebride21 · November 2009

And that was entirely inappropriate with Betrothed talking about what she is right now, but this most recent stuff happened as I was typing up the novel.Sorry, B, hopefully it will make you giggle a bit?

[Deleted User] · November 2009

Geez LVB. That is so scary. I'm glad he's okay. It's crazy to think about how vulnerable people were before everyone had cell phones.

louisvillebride21 · November 2009

It is scary. But FI said he was the nicest guy. Something about country folk I guess.

[Deleted User] · November 2009

Hi Anna! What's shakin bacon?

betrothed123 · November 2009

LVB,No problems. Grandpa died of cancer. That's not at all what your story brought to mind. I did giggle a bit

anna.oskar · November 2009

Nothing much cew. Just sitting back, enjoying my victory of FI. We now have some holiday decorations up in the house. Bethrothed: Sorry to hear about all that's going on with you. If you need anything at all, please don't hesitate to ask.

louisvillebride21 · November 2009

I'm glad I got a giggle out of you

LindyL · November 2009

Betrothed I am so sorry about your grandpa. Were you able to see him before he passed (I haven't had time to fully catch up on the posts from the last 48 hours)?

betrothed123 · November 2009

Country folk are like that. I'm from a really backwoods type of town. No matter who you are, if you need something we're there. We also typically start random conversations and sometimes freak people out over it. It's normal for us.

[Deleted User] · November 2009

I read a lot on the boards today about holiday decorating. Is this Thanksgiving or Christmas decorating? I love Christmas stuff, but I don't put it out until after Thanksgiving. You all might just inspire me to put my ish up early.

louisvillebride21 · November 2009

I'm not from the backcountry, but moreso than FI is. He wasn't freaked out about the random talking to him, but he was freaked out once he just freely admitted that he just got out of prison for meth.

opalsky007 · November 2009

I bought some Christmas decor today but am not putting it out for a while. I don't get into Thanksgiving decorations much. I guess I care more about feeding people than making it look nice.

[Deleted User] · November 2009

Yeah, come to think of it, I don't really put any thanksgiving stuff up either. My mom has a flag, but that's about it. Hey Opalsky - how is UT doing? Is the game over?

anna.oskar · November 2009

Christmas/Hanukkah decorating. Put garland and lights over the bannisters, put up my wooden "Let it Snow" words in the window, rearranged the living room to make room for when we put up our (as my dad calls it) Hanukkah bush, and hit Hobby Lobby and bought a gorgeous tree skirt that hopefully with last our entire marriage.

betrothed123 · November 2009

Lindy,No, I wasn't. I bawled over the phone about it with my dad and he promised me that he had told grandpa all day about how I loved him and was sorry I couldn't be there to say goodbye.I really can't express how much I appreciate the support I've received here on P&E. It means the world to me (and no, that's not the alcohol talking. I've been feeling that way since I first mentioned it here).

opalsky007 · November 2009

We've slowed down a bit since the first half. Which doesn't mean a lot since we went into halftime with a 35 point lead. It's brutal and fun to watch.

[Deleted User] · November 2009

I'm jealous. I want a Christmas house now.

LindyL · November 2009

I'm so sorry to hear that! I know your grandpa was aware of how much you loved him. It's always hard when you can't see them before they pass, but sometimes I think they sort of prefer it that way... so you don't have that last really sad image in your mind to remember them by. I know that's how my grandpa who passed from colon cancer was. Anyway, I am so, so sorry and if you need someone to talk to I'm here for you.

opalsky007 · November 2009

I'm slowly working on a Christmas house. FMIL's house is like Christmas explosion. Seven trees is the norm. There are freshly baked cookies all the time. It's like an alternate universe.When we moved in together, FI just assumed that we'd get all of those things. Then he realized how much it all costs, and now we add a few items a year to the house. So far this year, it's christmas tree dessert plates and a berry wreath for the door. I want to get stockings too, but we have no place to hang them

[Deleted User] · November 2009

Alright ladies. I'm logging off so that I can get my little monkey calmed down and in the bed. I hope you all have a great night. Talk to you lovelies tomorrow!

betrothed123 · November 2009

Bye, Cew!
