  • Mara--they're from Jasper.  When we went to see the Colts, it took us about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to get there. Undecided

    I did J&K's lurker post, so I suppose I can do yours, AATB!

    When is/was the wedding?
    2/26/11.  So close.  Terrifying.

    How did you meet your guy?
    We've known each other since middle school, when my friend had a crush on him.

    How did he propose?
    Initially, at a restaurant in front of both of our families before his first deployment.  But that was 7 years ago, and we weren't ready to get married, so about a year ago we talked and decided it was time.  Nothing too romantic.

    Why are you lurking on SB?
    It stays busy, it's usually entertaining, and right this moment I am avoiding studying.

    Favorite posters?
    J&K, Nates, Kimheartsscott, and I'm sure there are others.  I almost always agree with OWN and have a lot of respect for her.

    Least favorite posters?
    MFJ, MissCourtney, marissa_claire but I think that's more of a "today" thing.

    Posters who scare the effin be-jeebus out of you?
    I wouldn't want to be on Nebb's bad side, or Betrothed's.

    ETA:  And the latte thing... if you want a latte, go for caramel.  If not, I second the salted caramel hot chocolate.  I'm craving one myself now, but they are lots of WW points.

  • Your wedding IS close, Ash!  Btw at two and a half months it was pretty laughable to me all the planning that I hadn't done yet.  You must be excited :)

    Stressed, more than excited.  There are lots of things I haven't done yet.  I really, really need to get the invitations ordered but I have midterms right now so nothing is happening until the end of next week.  I e-mailed the Etsy lady I want to order them from but no proof yet and she hasn't responded, I'm just trying not to fret.

  • Oh wow that is cutting it close with the invites!  It will work out though, one way or the other.

    I had some slight drama about my dress.  It didn't arrive until about two and a half weeks before our wedding.  :)

    When is the wedding?  August 20th, 2011

    How did you meet your guy?

    We met in college where we lived on the same dorm floor. He gave me a ride to see The Last Samurai during a floor event and we hit it off from there.

    How did he propose?
    In my birthday card. Every year he makes me cards but this year's card was 10 pages long so I was kind of suspicious when he handed it to me. It was full of pictures of us with funny remarks and at the end he wrote how much I meant to him and proposed.

    Why are you lurking on SB?
    SB is one of the most active and entertaining boards and I like all camaraderie here. I lurk mostly because I catch threads as they are dying and usually I read what others have posted and think "wow, they said it so much better than I could".

    Favorite posters? Any

    Least favorite posters? MC

    Posters who scare the effin be-jeebus out of you?
    The "it's MY day" posters, but thankfully, SB has no tolerance for them.

    What flavor latte should I go get?
    Not a fan of coffee, but adding Kahlua usually improves things for me.

    I figure it's not the end of the world if I have to go to Michael's and buy invites.  I'll live, I just like these ones better.  I was lurking during your dress drama, I remember that.  My dress isn't in yet either but I didn't order it until August so that's not surprising!

  • You have a good attitude Ash.  :)

    mmw - adding kahlua to coffee sounds lovely...

  • Jeebus, Nates. Jasper is almost in Kentucky. Well, that's balls. I live way up in the northeast corner of the state. Guess I'll just have to make a special trip to S. Indiana. Or better yet, NJ! I've only been to Newark airport, so I really need to see a better part of NJ.
  • You know what I have learned from these and previous similar threads?

    "XXXX rubs me the wrong way" (with the accompanying KWIM?) is one of the most overused phrases in Knot history  when asking about another poster. That phrase now officially rubs me the wrong way.

    Carry on.

    Oh wait, Neely, that is an awesome engagement story!

    [QUOTE]We should hang and stuff. I see a few of you posting here and there and I want to know allllllll about you.  So:
     When is/was the wedding? <strong>6/26/10</strong>

    How did you meet your guy? <strong>We're both from the same town but went to different high schools.  We met at a friends party while we were at Clemson University.</strong>

     How did he propose? <strong>We went to dinner for our 4th anniversary.  I checked the mail when we came back home and I went to the door and he had locked me out.  He finally let me in and I set the mail down on the table and was asking him a question.  He didn't answer me so I turned around and he was on one knee and asked me to marry him.</strong>

    Why are you lurking on SB?<strong>Everyone is nice and seems friendly.  There are other posts that aren't wedding related so I enjoy that.</strong>

     Favorite posters? Least favorite posters? Posters who scare the effin be-jeebus out of you? ...
    <strong>I like everyone.  I think everyone has been nice so far.  Nobody has been scary yet! </strong>
    What flavor latte should I go get?  I'm thirsty and cold.
    <strong>I'm with everyone that suggested hot chocolate.  I'm not a coffee person.</strong>

  • It does not look like that anymore. I'm reminiscing because I'm tired of short hair already. Sometimes I make rash decisions. Send me your leftover hairs? I will starting making a wig from all the Knottie hair I can get.

  • When is/was the wedding? June 25, 2011

    How did you meet your guy? In college

    How did he propose? On the beach in Hawaii

    Why are you lurking on SB? I am not really sure if I am a lurker anymore. I post when I get a chance. I like that it is usually busy and itsn't all WR.

    Favorite posters? J&k, Seshat, Any, I like most of the regs hence why I am here.  

    Least favorite posters? I am still not sure about YIO, I like that she sticks to her guns though.

    Posters who scare the effin be-jeebus out of you? It is only the internet so no one. Also no one has given me any reason to be scared of them.

    ...What flavor latte should I go get?  I'm thirsty and cold. I don't drink coffee so I am of no help.

    Allisong rubs me the wrong way, KWIM?  Just kidding! I LOVE Alli and she rubs me the right way (insert obligatory Office quote here).

    Mara--I forgot you were way up there! Who's around Indy--MilkDuds?  Yeah, his family is way south.  Definitely come here--Newark is the absolute WORSE part of NJ visually and otherwise, so at least you can only go up from there.

    ETA: New Marasig yay! I love the short hair and that your hair is so straight and shiny. Blegh, mine takes forever to straighten.

    Andplusalso, all I've done is threadjack this thread to death. Sorry.

    Aw, that's sweet of you to say, jcbsjr, but I've had my awful moments.  I can really be mean, and then I always regret it.  Just ask Blue.  I'm not proud of some of the things I've said on here. 


    I am also judgey, but I'm okay with that. 
  • Mara, your sig is lovely. 

    I'd give you some of my hair but it's actually pretty thin and gnarly.  It's got lots of body though, so it's deceiving.

    I never see her do this either. But even though she gives good, respectable advice there are times when she seems so harsh. Like I said, other times she seems sugary sweet. In the end I respect her advice.
