    I confess that I am tired of living where I do now. I really just want FI to hurry up and finish school so that we can move. I'm not sure how much I can take it here for another year. So much in fact, that I have been already looking for new jobs in the areas we want to locate to. So frustrating. I really just want to get on with our lives, and feel that we can not do it here.

    I get married next Monday night.  Out of 125 invites, 101 confirmed yes, and we still have 16 we can't get a hold of (I expected thia-they're traveling ATM).

    I confess that I am now shaking uncontrollably for most of the day.  It's not cold feet.  It's stage fright.  I've had this happen before prior to performances.  I keep thinking "wouldn't it be great to just skip right to the honeymoon..."

    FI and I thought the prospect of paying $30/head for dinner for 300 people we don't know very well was ridiculous, and frankly we want that $$ for ourselves.  We work hard for it and earn it and don't feel like spending it on people we don't know.

    And, I think registries are exceedingly stupid.  I'm not going to scan a bunch of stuff at a store and then sit at home and wait 6 months and hope my guests magically find out where I'm registered via my website or my parents, and then hope they buy me what I want.  Forget it.  I'm a big girl with a big girl job and FI and I can buy our own housewares, tyvm.  People can send a check if they want to contribute to our lives.  Or a gift card.

    Or they can offer me free babysitting.  Whatev.

    All of these revelations came to me over the weekend when I was wishing I could just skip the bs and head straight to just being married already.  FI feels the same way thank goodness and I am so relieved that I don't have to participate in the archaic marketing madness that is wedding planning and hosting these days.

    I am not trying to be offensive if you registered btw.  I don't care if you did.  I'd buy you a gift from your reg if I were attending your wedding.  But personally, I want what I want when I want it, so I'm gonna take care of that myself!

    Ugh--I feel like such a jerk today.  I went to work this morning on only 3 hours of sleep and no food in my stomach.  That amounted to some very un-Nickles like word vomit coming out of my mouth, and I think I offended one of the girls.  I was just grumpy.  I apologized twice, cause it is just so unlike me, and the girls thought nothing of it, so I hope everything is cool!  The girl and I still have lunch plans for Thursday, so I am thinking everything is all good.  I am just embarrassed!

    PS--Jeni, everything will be great and you will have a wonderful time!  Try not to worry!  :)

    i am running a race this sunday and do'tt care one iota about it! this is very unlike me, i uusally love racing! but the last 10 weeks of training in miserable late winter/early spring weather has made me very unmotivated to do this race. i don't feel like driving into philly sat to do packet pick up (i wanted to go fri night, but they changed the time and i won't make it afer work) just to come home and drive back sun morning for the race. usually, i know lots of people doing this race, but this time it closed super fast and i am going at it alone. part of me wants to bag it, but the rest of me knows i'll regret it if i did that, plus it would suck to lose the $$ i spent on registering . ugh.
