Okay, maybe I hate her a lot for this kind of crap.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
So true.
One of my bridesmaids organized a day spa thing for the day before my wedding. I know that she enjoyed it, and probably some of my otehr guests, so that's a good thing, but for me it was just one more thing to do and seemed to have me always isolated from the people who had come to town to celebrate with me - getting a message in a backroom, getting a pedicure off by myself, somehow being in or near the communal seating only when no one else was. So I always want to tell brides to avoid the spa day like the plague, it's miserable!
Way more about me than Aimee or Aimee's friend. I was kinda hoping some sort of pithy advice would occur to me as I ranted, but no such luck.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Aimee, use Em as an excuse. New babies are a pass for AT LEAST the first year. She's teething, or going through an anxiety phase or something.
ION, TMI alert:
being told by the gyno that the ever-increasing level of pain from fibroids I get each month would need surgery if I was 28, but it's better to "wait it out" since I'm 48? Comforting...not. At least there's no surgery in my future.

Go ahead, ask me what she said when I asked her if she was going to learn to drive...

what did she say???
She said she'd never want to get a driver's license because then she'd have to do things alone and this meant that her husband would come home every night, and didn't I hate doing things like grocery shopping alone when I could be doing them with my hubby?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
How does this sound:
B-The shower sounds like an awful lot of fun but I worry that if your guests have to pay for their spa treatments, they might not get you gifts and since the shower is supposed to be about you anyway, maybe T and I and the others plan something where we would all pamper you. Just my thoughts, love. A

Aimée, how 'bout adding some of what -t said above about not really spending time with people at the spa?
Makes my heart break a little to think that you have to figure out a way to deal with this rather than just being able to say honestly, "love ya, woman, I'll have to pass on the spa but I'll be there for your vows."

I'm trying to figure out a way to handle it because I have been, surprise surprise, kind of opinionated in a few other area of her wedding and I'm trying to tread lightly so as not to hurt her feelings again.
