Ugh, sorry to hear the ick is sticking with you still. May this be the end of it.
Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.
So my son is attending his first music festival, the Ultra Music Festival in Miami - [link]
He is beyond blown away with the experience. Tickets were $300! Wow! Someone gave him one because of course he sure as heck doesn't have that kind of money. Maybe this will translate into him thinking that good things will come to him if he works hard and can afford the good times? Yeah right, wishful thinking mom.
Happy anniversary Laura! And Brendon too, of course.
Happy Anniversary Laura and Brendon!
Moar wedding stuff, Teppy! It's been at least 12 hours and I need my fix.
Eloping was definitely the thing for us to do. Despite having had the princess wedding dream all through childhood, when it came to getting married before H left for basic training and and uncertain future, or planning for the six months of his training and getting married before he was assigned, we wanted that time together. So I live vicariously through the details of friends' weddings, yours included.
YEAH! MOAR WEDDING STUFF!
Dear Tep,
WE ARE YOUR BRIDEZILLA! GIVE US MORE! YOUR WEDDING LIKES CARROTS!
Tim was slightly nonplussed that I refuse to do a garter toss, but he's fine with it.
We're having an intense cupcakes-vs.-cake debate. (I am pro-cupcake; he is more cake.)
Both! Do a small schmancy cake you can cut, and cupcakes for the eating!
Yes, both!

It's his garter, you should let him toss it! Oh, wait, you meant . . . ;)

I actually DID tell him that if we used one of his garters, I'd consider wearing it and letting him toss it. But it's truly a big no. I'm not fond of that tradition.

Tim's objection to the cupcakes -- at least, that he's told me about -- is that they're messy and drop crumbs because people eat them with their hands rather than on a plate with forks, and that means more for the B&B staff to clean up. I pointed out that our families aren't howler monkeys and will be neat and clean, but he was still dubious.
My objection to cake is that I need something gluten-free, and of the GF bakeries around here, I am not convinced they can make a *pretty* wedding cake. I have had an unbelievably delicious GF cake, but it was decorated for a birthday, which is way different than a wedding cake.
Are cupcakes "pretty"? I'm not sure why I'm okay with them -- the cupcake place I'm looking at DOES use really gorgeous cupcake papers, and the frosting is done really well -- but for some reason I don't need cupcakes to be as lovely as an actual cake. I dunno.
