Welcome to our coast, vw!
Speaking of cute--I present to you Colin Firth speaking Italian. [link] Swoon. (most of it is at the end of the clip)
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

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

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Sparky, if you have any tips you want to share for a 10k wedding, I'd love to hear them.
sj, I think the major reason we were able to keep costs low was that we chose not to get married anywhere near a major metropolitan area. If you want to stay close to Boston, your costs will automatically be higher.
The other big tip I have (off the top of my head) is to say no to wedding themed things -- that is, don't buy wedding glasses to sip your toast from, don't buy a wedding garter -- heck, if you can manage it, don't buy a wedding dress!

VW, get pretty boy number. Decide whether or not to call it when you are rested.

Again I am glad for the three-week wedding preparation with added No! Guests! At! All! $100 Justice of the Peace was the only thing we ended up paying for.
Which probably isn't helpful. But it was nice, and no one was mad at us for doing it ass-ways, but then we're both the doing-it-ass-ways members of our respective families.

not your mom's socks.
seriously - there are some great dresses out there for $150. No need to spend $3,000 - or whatever.

My wedding might have cost the equivalent of a $750 in today's dollars. I had it in a building at Vanderbilt, and the room was decorated with greenery that two friends stole from all over campus. At one point, a campus cop asked them what they were doing, and they made up some story that satisfied him. Fortunately, he didn't look in the trunk, which was stuffed with magnolia and holly branches.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Somehow, petty theft for a wedding just seems so romantic....

Ha, Ginger! That's awesome.
So, I brought Suzi a very special present. So far, everyone in her family has thrown it across the room. I'm so sad.
