Ok. I have fifteen minutes. I have spent a ton of time on these stupid labels...making them all pretty with the school logo on them and shit. Just found out that we don't use the label size I was using, so now I get to redo it for a third time....without the logo. Hell, I might just go buy the stupid labels myself so I don't have to redo this AGAIN.
And Nora, the S-ville Target is about the same distance as Watertown for me, I think anyway...
It's a bit much. A wedding we just went to recently, the bachelor party was a dimilar deal - staying overnight at a resort/spa - that we couldn't afford. DH went, but I (actually, my dad drove, his friends totally mocked him for being picked up by his in-laws) went and picked him up at 2am to save the cost of the hotel room. Or he could have slept on someone's floor. Anyway, it put us in a difficult situation.
I think Miss Manners would say she's valuing where she has the shower over who will be there to celebrate with her.
Bummer, vw. I hate when what whould be a simple task becomes herculean basically because yo haven't done it precisely that way before.
Yeah. Like, a spa's a great idea for an outing with friends, even for celebrating the upcoming wedding -- with that kind of thing it's much easier to say, "I really can't afford that. Maybe if we had dinner instead?" But for the actual shower, you can't be expecting all your guests to pay for the privilege of bringing you a gift. Er, I think.
the spa thing is nutty. Sheesh.
(insert rant about wedding culture of entitlement here)
I'm actually kind of grossed out about the spa shower thing, on your behalf, Aimee.
Ok. I'm taking my crabby self to school now.
Davids -- so glad that EM has found a job -- whoo hoo!
And Aimee -- excellent news on the loan getting.
As an example of how things
should
be done:
A friend got married at a fairly remote location. Because it was about 20 miles out of town and parking was slightly limited, she provided bus service for guests who RSVPed.
There were other confusing details. But really, who should have to remember that they created a new entrance to Eagle Beach last year, that comes before the old one, and has great signage, so that if you don't head out the road very often, you might forget that the
real
Eagle Beach is farther on.
I just keep thinking, "She ain't Britney Spears." The bachelor party is in Vegas for crying out loud. Wouldn't be so bad, I guess but BOTH Joe and I are in the wedding.
