Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I just had a burrito bowl for supper. It was all soft food...rice, beans, salsa, cheese, sour cream, chipotle mayo, guac, but it was the first solid food I've had in a couple of days that wasn't bananas, so it was heavenly.

I dropped off a clothing donation without running into a street festival, go team. Then I walked to the beach and got some exercise before buying all the fresh produce at the grocery store. I got carded for the wine. I'm going to jump in the shower because I'm a sweaty mess and then I'll pick a TV show to catch up on.

That dress is super cute, Steph!

I will also be going to a wedding, albeit in August. All the clothing direction I have is "3:00 pm wedding with an evening reception, open bar." Delightful as that last bit sounds, it seems a bit all over the map, formality-wise. What do you all think of this with a ruffly black shrug and strappy black sandals?

Indoor or outdoor wedding/reception?

Indoor wedding, probably indoor with outdoor space for the reception. It's in MI, and the church will probably be inadequately ACed and the reception will probably get a tad chilly.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Calli, I think that's lovely and will fit in just fine.

We are having a thunderstorm and I am thinking of napping.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Calli, that seems very appropriate for what you describe.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, I like that dress! That sounds like the kind of wedding where people will be wearing anything from day to evening, so it looks perfect.

That is my favorite dress- it is practically all I wear, and it can be dressed up or down really well.

Thanks, y'all. It's my nephew's wedding, and I'd like my sister to be happy (the nephew couldn't care less what I wear, I'm sure). The bridesmaids will be in purple. I'm looking forward to the whole shindig.
