So I'll bring Hec a chicken burrito, and he'll burst into tears, and then he'll hear the A's game, and he'll start sobbing, and then I'll tell him K-Bug's getting married, and he will soak my upholstery in tears of joy.
I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

K-Bug - aka Kelly (she said I can use her real name now that she is an adult) has been together with her guy for over 5 years. He proposed last June and they are planning to get married next summer. His family is far flung, so they would have to travel no matter where they picked, so Colorado is actually kinda central.
When they first got engaged, it was right after my mom died and then I was dealing with the divorce, so it took a bit for me to catch the "ohhhh, wedding" excitement.
I had been telling her that I couldn't afford to help much with the wedding since I'm helping with her school costs right now. But thanks to a nice tax refund and her choosing a reasonable dress, I was able to offer to pay for the dress today. I think I shocked the heck out of her.

Because books.
Did you cry? Everyone cried when I got mine. It was ... weird, actually, but very sweet.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Yeah, me too! But I skim a lot.
How fun, Suzi!
I took my dress in to get altered today. I have never had anything tailored before.

Somehow I didn't cry. My tummy is still all aflutter. Knowing that I was going to surprise her with the dress funding had me hiding a grin.
MOB dresses are depressing. Why are they all so drab? I know it is her day and all that, but the dresses they had were blech.

Growing up, we referred to oleanders and THE POISON BUSH. I'm not sure why. Sure, it is poisonous to something, but... Pretty!
msbelle, that was before I had blinds, so probably why I sent you upstairs where I had a sheet over the window. Man. So much in a year for us both.
And many congrats to Kelly, Suzi. Long and prosperous.

Suzi, look for a dress for you somewhere other than a bridal shop, I think. MOB dresses there do tend to me sort of blah to ugh.
