Summerland: not really enamoured of the whole marriage storyline. Simon doesn't add anything. Don't want her back with Jimmy, either, but, meh.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Can you get bundt cake mix? Or are bundt cakes one of those from stratch pastries? I don't even care if the damn thing's palatable; just THERE.

If I ever get married, I want everything to be STORE-BOUGHT and logical.

And frankly, I'll never worry more about how my cake looks than my friends jobs.

Ok. Done ranting. I didn't realize I was THIS pissed about the whole thing!

Bridezilla must have her Barbie cake at all costs?

Buy a $5 sheet cake from a grocery store and write "Math is HARD!" in icing across the top.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

At the last shower I attended, the bride was given Guide To Getting It On! by her best friend. Her fiancé's family was tittering, faking being scandalised, and poring through it and shrieking. They passed it around to me and I waved it on. To their raised eyebrows I replied "I have my own copy." I looked at the best friend and gave her a thumb's up.

The bride's mother and grandmother were there. I can't imagine admitting the existence of that book around my parents. But her mother? Called her back to ask "What was it called, exactly?"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Bundt cake isn't just the pan?

Hee.

I think it's great they were enthuisatic. I went to a dear friend's shower, and her mother is SUPER ULTRA conservative -- Bible Belt Baptist, really naive and easily upset, and we had to be really careful what we said and did.

But for her bachelorette, we all went and got tattoos, so it evened out.

I always thought of is a pan thing -- it's a trademark, I think.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My groomsmen and ushers gave me a card at the reception with their gift. It had Dudley Doright on the front and said, "There are good guys. And there are bad guys." When I opened it up, it said, "and then there is us!". It contained three polaroids of all the guys naked except for their bow ties.

I blew champaign out of my nose when DH's 80 year old grandmother asked to see the card TWICE.

We couldn't have asked for better wedding attendants.

Can you get bundt cake mix?

Bundt cake is just the pan. Most box cakes mixes have the appropriate times and temps for them listed.

I'm weird. I can discuss sex related stuff with my parents (though strictly in a nonspecific and/or jokey sense or maybe literature suggestions though sometimes mom shares TMI) but with friends? I'm all for everyone have good sex. I just don't need to know anything more about their preferences or any sort of specifics. Please. It's odd.
