Mice Prefer Barbeque
Feb. 24th, 2003 09:16 amWe had some mice in our pantry. They got into the BBQ potato chips, but they left the plain potato chips alone. Interesting.
The wedding, which, as you all know, consumes my life, is in 27 days. 27 days! We still have a lot of last-minute stuff to do--contact the caterer so she can view the site, set up a meeting with our pastor to go over the ceremony, figure out where we're going to spend our honeymoon (that's not happening until June, so we're okay there), post final hotel information on the website, order flowers, and do the final finishing touches on all the wedding outfits. I'm going to be sewing a lot of buttons on doublets today. Whew.
Luckily, almost everything is done. We have all our thank you notes. With any luck, all the things we ordered will arrive soon. My friend (the one whose feelings I hurt without meaning to, mentioned in the depressing post a couple posts back) is my friend again and doesn't seem to be mad at me anymore. I still feel that the issue is unresolved, as I never got to quite explain what happened, but we'll see. She may just want to let it go. She's like that.
My room is starting to look rather empty. I've been packing up all my stuff...it's kinda hard to do sometimes. I've never lived away from home before. I'm looking forward to going, though. It's not like I'm leaving home for a strange place...it's more like I'm going from a place that's getting stranger to go to my real home, if that makes any sense. I don't love my family any less, it's just that I love Alex more than I could ever say, and I want to be with him forever. Mushy, I know, but still true.
I ramble again. However, the point is that much has gotten done, and there is still much to BE done. Ah, but soon, the wedding will be over, the guests will go home, and Alex and I can get on with just living together and everything. Happy day! Also, after the wedding, I'll have more time to see my friends and stuff! Life will settle down! HAPPY DAY!
In other news, I've applied at the U of O (have I mentioned that?). I'm very, very excited to be going back to school. Alex is going to try to fix it so that I don't have to work while I'm going to school full-time. I don't know if that's going to work, as Alex will be in school at the same time. Still, it would be cool if both of us could be in school together. If we can work it out, we would both also be graduating at about the same time (I would have to go back to get my fifth-year teaching credentials, though).
So tired...I also have to do some sending of packages and things like that today. Oh, and buying more boxes to put my stuff in so it can be transported to Alex's house. Too much to do. At least I have chai. *happily sips chai tea with milk and sugar*
Well, gotta scoot. Everybody go read Megatokyo. "That was very rude, Mr. Turtle." Hee!
