Nilly, the Wedding: Freaking Awesome. I'm dead tired now, but I bet our girl is still there, dancing, giggling, smiling, and stopping every 5 minutes to take her picture with a guest.
And there was so much love there. You can't even begin to imagine.
Words, words and more words tomorrow. Pictures as soon as the bride will allow me to post them for the masses.
Lovely wedding, in every way of the term.
Oh, bed now.
Hurray for happy love-filled weddings!!!
Thanks for the update, Shir--get some sleep and then wake up and tell us everything!
Yay Nilly wedding!
Thanks for that on-the-scene reporting, Shir.
Tru Blood O Positive, A Synthetic Blood Nourishment Beverage For Vampires
My 4 pack of Tru Blood O Positive arrived last week, it’s a based on the synthetic blood substitute that vampires drink in the HBO series Tru Blood, which just finished Season 2. It’s a tart, lightly sweetened blood orange carbonated drink created by our friends at Omni Consumer Products, the same people who produce Brawndo – The Thirst Mutilator and Sex Panther Cologne.
Oh, good grief.
Friends A and B are separating. They agree that they want to tell people themselves rather than have anyone find out second- or third-hand through the gossip network.
Friend A's definition of telling people is "pull them aside for a one-on-one chat".
Friend B's definition is... well, let's say that Friend C just popped up in Facebook chat to say "Why does B's status say 'single'? Holy shit!"
(Obvs. part of the issue here is that C hasn't yet had the one-on-one and I have, blah blah how-to-answer awkwardcakes. But the other part is, dudes, playing all this out with FB statuses? SO VERY HIGH SCHOOL.)
Whoops, CBS just got another curse word onscreen during the men's final. Details:
Federer was pissed that the ref allowed Del Potro to challenge after quite a bit of time elapsed. The mic caught quite a few words, including "I don't give a shit..."
Apparently he dropped the f-bomb. So it seems that doesn't get you tossed. My sister is pissed, but this is in no way equivalent to threatening to shove a ball down someone's throat--that should get you penalised whether or not you swear when you do it.
That having been said, some clarity about what penalties apply for what would be nice.
US Open:
Dude, you don't shush Roger Federer! Especially after you've let del Potro get away with an "I wasn't ready!"
I didn't hear an f-bomb, but
to me, he didn't make physical motions toward the umpire. And all the commentators agree that the challenge thing was bullshit. Del Potro looked towards his coaches for advice on whether he should challenge.
